Something Fun

My number is 12 I won’t go into detail.

 

[Bassbob]

8

 

[ScottJ]

15 for me.

And I'll be 'that guy', they mis-spelled "lettuce".

 

[PunchySunshine]

One! White Chocolate!

You'll eat snails and raw fish but not white chocolate? I don't care for white chocolate but the question was will you eat it. Exploring this even further I guarantee that everyone would eat everything on that list if they were starving. It's all about context.

Some of that I agree with bit I draw a line at mushrooms. I refuse to eat a fungus.

If you had to you would. And deep fried mushrooms are good. For me it's about the texture. If it's slimey, like from a can, I don't want it. Breaded and deep fried it's great.

Say what you want. No I wouldn’t.

So you would starve to death rather than eat a mushroom?

11 for me. Anything related to seafood makes the list. I would rather starve than eat seafood. I'd munch on grass clippings and boil up some tree bark before I'd resort to seafood.

There are plenty of other things to eat.

 

[KillerFord1977]

1 - eggplant

Sure there are. That's not the point. Context remember. What if the only thing on the island you were stranded on was mushrooms? Or if you were kidnapped and locked in a room and the only food your captors offered you was mushrooms? Without taking this fun thread sideways, I just want to point out that survival instinct is not something you can control. People will eat people before they will starve themselves to death.

You and @PunchySunshine have a broad palate.

 

[ScottJ]

My number of dislikes would have been more, but the items weren't on the list.

Ok I’ll end this now if I did eat a mushroom it wouldn’t stay down long, I will agree dying doesn’t sound fun but eating then immediately puking doesn’t sound fun either.

I feel the same way about fat. When you look at my plate compared to normal people after eating a pork steak it's gonna look like I left half the steak on the plate. The texture in my mouth initiates the gag reflex. However, my wife makes me these breakfast steaks and chops and she cooks them so the fat is thoroughly cooked and crunchy. I leave nothing on the plate.

12 for me

And a broad belly to match here!

Same here about the fat. I cut it off.

Now, if I were absolutely starving I'd eat the steak, and maybe just wrap the fat in something and put in a pocket for a snack later.
