Is there anything you won’t eat ?

I like liver and kidney, but I don't like haggis. (vegetarians look away now - it contains the liver heart and lungs of a sheep + other ingredients and stuffed into a sheep's stomach). I believe you can't get it in the USA because of the lungs. You can get 'Vegetarian' ones, but they're not real haggis.

My older son loves haggis. Every year he goes to the local Scottish festival and has two helpings. I don't know how authentic it is. We have an English pub in town, and he likes their steak and kidney pie. I tried it, but it wouldn't be on my top 10 list.

Never tried sushi though my kids are fans.
Lima beans,liver and venison are up there on my no thanks list.
I'm Scottish,so no doubt tripe and haggis passed by in my life but I don't recall trying it.

Any item of food you’ve never even tried but just know you would not like it ?

With me it’s Marmalade, although I love oranges, marmalade has never appealed to me and another is Oysters, ugh I just couldn’t have one of them slithering down my throat ! 😝

Same for me @Wren and orange marmalade, ewww unless using it in a baking recipe I tried once....
add to that any organ meat and, would you believe avacados...I hate the texture and taste of it....
and any chocolate-covered insects, which an aunt and uncle ate in their travels abroad :sick:

CRICKET Flour is probably cleaner that any flour from grocery shelves. FDA allows for every 1/4 cup of cornmeal....one or more fragments of rat dung (poop), two or more rat hairs,one or more whole insects, Here in the midwest during crop harvest there is so much that grain companies store thousands of bushels of grain on cement slabs with no covering outside exposed to all rodent, bird dung(poop) or what ever. If they FDA did not allow this all of the grain would be considered not fit for human consumption. And that's no shit, folks.

Sounds like a recipe for a witch's brew @norman, lol....

They obviously don't seem to be popular. My co-worker liked rutabagas enough to grow her own. This below is the sweet kind like she used to make. I even just found recipes for Shepherd Pie made with rutabaga.

Thanks PVC, seems it's a substitute for pumpkin pie as it's orange?
People that like turnips like rutabaga. It's a cross between turnip and cabbage.

Anyway, it has been traditional in New England for Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey dinners.
 
I also like beets baked in the oven, chilled and sliced into a salad with Feta cheese.

Pickled beets (not sweet) with onion slices are good, too.
