When I travel, I try to taste the local cuisine and love to try things that I’ve never had before. Recently I tried haggis, which was outstanding. I’ve also had hakarl (fermented shark - not really my cup of tea, but glad I tried it) and balut (surprisingly tasty).
What have you tried? Anything that caught you off guard by how tasty (or not) it was?
Haggis is delicious, and when I first had it, I assumed I wouldn’t like it, but had to try, only to really love it.
A lot of stinky cheeses taste really good, but if you’ve never given then a chance, it’s hard to make yourself eat. Humboldt Fog is a favorite of mine, but basically none of my peers will try it.
I had that cheese a long time ago and remember enjoying it. Strong but delicious.
