what food did you anticipate then find failing?

[ekrem]

Harzer cheese. It's disgusting.

 

[Mr. H.]

Edamame. Tasty when prepared right, but really rich. Couldn't eat more than a handful.
Don't think I'll try 'em again.

 

[Amelia]

Limburger cheese was even worse than I could have imagined, so in that sense it did not disappoint.

i cant stand beer...but then i never thought it would be good.....nor do i drink wine...hate the smell of red wines

plus i am allergic to both beer and wine

LOL... it was that whole right of passage growing up thing... lets have a beer... Going to a kegger.

meh, beer was for children.


I didn't hang out with children so beer was not my thing.

I love good red wine!

 

[syrenn]

Goat cheese!

When it was just coming out as all the rage i was dying to try it! To this day i think its disgusting.

 

[Mr. H.]

I think you all are missing the boat by not pairing a wine with different cheeses.
They were made for each other.

 

[Amelia]

Macadamia nuts.

Somehow I got the idea they should be special ... but no .....

I was at a cheese shop and tried a small piece of Limburger cheese.

That has to be the most god awful rancid tasting stuff on the planet

Now watch Mr. H. come along and say that you just need to pair it up with the right wine.

I had sea urchin at a sushi bar once.
I can honestly say that was the worst tasting thing I've ever had in my mouth.
When it comes to weird food, I've eaten everything from chicken feet to snails to deep fried grasshoppers to duck tongue to bone marrow. Hands down, sea urchin is the worst.

Thank goodness you never do.

You must be completely crazy. Uni is one of the very best.

I wish I'd have chosen the poisonous part of a puffer fish.

You find edamame "rich"? Did you have them in a fondue or something?

Baked inna oven then baptised with sea salt.
They're dense, heavy, and rich. Not exactly a Super Bowl Snack.
I M O (the great disclaimer))

If you think edamame is "dense, heavy, and rich," you must survive on nothing but water and bean sprouts most of the time. That's just wierd.

Cannoli. When I went to Boston I was told they were "must have". I found them boring. .

Why in Boston? Were you in the North End or something?

Fugu is also great, but if you don't like Uni then maybe you lack the 'buds to appreciate it.
