Fussy eaters....

[Mr Mystery]

Another one! (on my lunch, and bored)....

Inspired by this (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-21276078) article.

As you may have noticed from threads such as 'I love cooking, me!' I'm a bit of a foodie. Not too poncey mind, just a fan of good home made food. And thanks to Mum and Dad insisting I try lots of foods as a kid, I have a very wide palette (I'll eat pretty much anything. Only stuff I don't really like is Cauliflower). Yet I know people who turn their noses up at offall, and insist only on the best cuts of meat.

And that is just totally alien to me. Having been brought up to eat what was bloody well put in front of me, the thought of refusing fare is just...insane.

As a Scot I am of course a fan of Haggis. It's dead tasty. As for the ingredients? Just an honest sausage guv. And as such from a young age I've had no qualms about nose to tail eating.

But what about bugs and insects? I honestly don't see why not. I imagine the texture may be a little odd, but they seem to small to have much flavour of their own, and as such are a tempting prospect for the home cook.

How about you BolS? Are you particularly fussy? Anything you positively will not eat?

I do not eat lamb or fish. That is because I am a vegeterian ;) no, I just don't enjoy the taste of them.
I think we are a little picky with it, a friend of mine keeps pigs and eats everything he swears by the tongue. I've never tried it, but I want to but I am a little squimish about such things so I'm not sure if i would eat it.

[Mr Mystery]

IF you eat sausages, chances are you've eaten the tongue already....

Tongue is very nice. Strong muscles, so loads of flavour, but takes a loooong time to cook. Plus you have to peel it. Which is unsettling.

I'm a picky eater.

And its going to sound idiotic when I say it. I don't eat Fruit or Veg. 95% I enjoy the taste of, but the texture makes me gag and retch and I can't physically eat them.

I eat sensibly around them and donj't splurge too much on junk, and maintain a perfect BMI on a 6'4" frame.

[Psychosplodge]

I'm possibly the fussiest eater on here.

I don't eat fruit or veg.
or anything like curry, chilli etc where you can't really see what you're eating.

I thought you were short? :D

I could try and challenge you on that Mr. Splodge... a fellow supertaster?

[Psychosplodge]

lack of taste, so notice textures more...

[Mr Mystery]

BMI means Nowt.

According to it, I'm obese. Which whilst I do have a belly, is utter nonsense.

[DrLove42]

Well i'm in perfect shape lets leave it at that then

[Godless Zealot]

Ah right, yeah I have an issue with taste some foods just overpower my poor tongue, especially hot/spicy food....

[Wolfshade]

Round is a perfect shape.

A wolf who doesn't eat lamb? How novel.

I eat pretty much anything. With 4 kids to feed, it was 'eat it or go hungry' in our house and none of us grew up fussy eaters. Interestingly, some of my siblings have become more fussy as they've got older, I'd assumed it was normally the other way round.

[Gotthammer]

I'm not a fussy eater, I just happen to have very refined tastes, thank you :p

[Godless Zealot]

I'm not a fussy eater, I just happen to have very refined tastes, thank you :p

I'll have to use that phrase in the future...:)

[Deadlift]

I will try anything once, only thing I can honestly say I don't like is aniseed. I have a reputation as being a bit of a carnivore who likes things a bit bloody :)
I am sure I should be in man v food.

[Wolfshade]

Then do you also not like Fennel?

[Deadlift]

Fennel, I'm ok with. It's a subtle flavour and more aromatic than pungent. Liquorice on the other hand I hate.

I prefer bigger prey

[eldargal]

I will eat anything once, and some things many, many times.

[Brakkart]

I will eat anyone once, and some things many, many times.

Well it stands to reason that you can only eat someone once. Even so, never really pegged you for the cannibal type. You learn something new everyday.

[eldargal]

Bah, that's what I get for posting early in the morning.:p Fixed.

Only if you're doing it wrong...

The F at the beginning of the title of this thread, looks like a P when using my iPhone to browse the forums. But that's a whole other topic I guess.

[Psychosplodge]

More entertaining though...

[Wolfshade]

I don't think we should be too harsh with these bulimic types

[Wildeybeast]

I prefer bigger prey

I warn you, we wildeybeast's are dangerous foes when roused. Those horns ain't just for show.
