Coming of the "won't do it on principle" thread...what is the grossest thing you've eaten?

I'm sure this will be easily topped, and I am awaiting the barrage of "two girls, one cup" posts....but what is the nastiest food you've tried?

Me....I once ate road kill. Literally. Possum. Deep fried.

Alligator. Wasn't gross in principle, but the actual flavour and mouthfeel of it made it the most disgusting thing I've ever put in my mouth.

I had some whole-head barbacoa that was just too much to bear.

Snails, but i enjoyed them. As far as gross that i didn't enjoy, I had a Burger King veggie burger once. Yikes.

Rocky Mountain Oysters. I was a kid and my mom told me they were fried mushrooms. I offered one to my grandfather and he said, " No! I can't eat that! Those are bulls balls!" And I screamed out in the crowded place, " Bulls balls!!!! Am I gonna die!!!"

The grossest thing in my mouth that made me nearly chunder was eel. And as a kid when I put a spoonful of butter in my mouth believing it to be ice cream. :pukey:
Having said that, butter disgusts me anyway, even a sandwich where I detect the bread is buttered makes me nauseous.

I used to think the most "ewww" thing I'd eaten was either chicken heart in Bem Brasil or raw horse meat when I was in Tokyo, but reading the other thread, popular opinion is that it's black pudding a/k/a blood sausage.

Oh man, I love me some gator tail. Maybe it was the way yours was prepared? It's best in small fried chunks/nuggets.

It was a chop (like a pork chop) so I prepared it basically the same as I would with a pork chop. It had this terrible mildly fishy taste (like a processed fish finger) and was gristly as all fuck. It might have been the cut that was bad in terms of texture, but the taste really wasn't something I'd expect from a big chunk of meat from a large animal. (Conversely, kangaroo or eel are probably the nicest things I've ever had. Also, MrSStiffy, black pudding is incredible).

Already a thread in the Talk section.

Preaching to the converted. My flatmate once told me how they made it, in quite graphic detail. The anecdote ended with "it all goes in the same bucket." My response was "Kevin, if I could cook something as tasty that had my own piss going in it, I'd eat it."

Snails, Horse, Frogs Legs, Ants & Banana (I fucking despise banana with a passion).

Probably a tequila (well, mescal actually) worm...?

Oh man! NEVER give me that shit...I will turn completely and uncontrollably psychotic. I beat up a cigarette machine in a bar, and after getting kicked out, proceeded to start knocking fence boards off with headbutts, after about a half a bottle of Monte Alban, and the worm. It was worse the time I ate it, and was tripping on acid.

I would say, a nasty pussy. I have eaten a couple I thought would eat me back...but I plowed through, because I wanted something, and I got it.

I ate Russian street food.
They say that because that didn't kill me, nothing can.

Brains.

I was over at a friends and he came back with Big Red and Babacoa, which is really big thing to eat on a sunday mornin' here in Texas. Anyways, I'm playing Madden with his son and he asks me if I want a taco, "sure" i said, "gimmie three" He brought the plate and I ate one of them and thought it tasted different, so i opened the other one up and theres grey pieces of squishy meat. I knew they were different so i went to the kitchen to ask him what was in it cause it tasted really protein. He opened a boiling pot and in it was half a brain to a cow. I felt so sick after watching that brain bobbin' and floating around in that boiling water.

I guess the worst would be scrapple. Look at the 1st four letters and I'm sure you can guess what it is. As a preteen, I read the package while eating it, was a little turned off but then thought oh well I've been eating it this long..
