Similarly, Century/Thousand-year Eggs, especially after seeing Ashens try a very small bit and basically getting instantly getting sick (and if you're familiar with Ashens, you know he's not the type of YouTube who exaggerates his reactions for the camera. In fact, he's gained a lot of popularity keeping his reactions genuine). Oh yeah, that's another one I don't think I could stomach. My brother likes them, though.

It's not a food, but, tea.
I despise tea. It genuinely repulses me to the point where I will leave the room if anyone is drinking it. The smell is enough to disgust me.
It's made twice as worse by the fact that I live in England.

Anything tartare. How do you not get e-coli? Keeping it as fresh as possible. When I was younger I remember refusing to eat pork tongue, but I've since tried some and it's fine (it was sliced thinly so it wasn't like I was sticking a tongue in my mouth). As for today, I've had guinea pig a few year ago, so I'd try pretty much everything except for stuff that's overly fermented/mouldy since I'm really allergic to mould.

Oh yeah, another one: blowfish. Or whatever that fish that's poisonous if it's not perfectly prepared is. To make it worse, from what I hear, it's not even that good.
You mean I get to risk my life for what is, in the best case scenario, an underwhelming meal?! Awesome!!

My answer will always be sushi. I'll eat just about anything fried but I'll always draw the line at raw stuff. As a Norwegian this will practically be sacrilege but lutefisk also. Some things you don't have to try to know you'd hate it. Sushi isn't the fish actually, that's called sashimi. Sushi is the rice, and it doesn't even necessarily include any seafood at all. I thought the rice was called onigiri? Or is that a specific thing?

Or is that a specific thing? Onigiri is kind of like a rice ball, or a rice triangle. And it's filled with stuff. Mostly made with regular old boiled with rice. Sushi is basically any kind of vinegered, sticky rice with stuff in it.

Sauerströ... Sourstrem... Sürströ... that Swedish dish that's basically just rotten fish whose smell is impossible to get out of anything it has touched. Similarly, Century/Thousand-year Eggs, especially after seeing Ashens try a very small bit and basically instantly getting sick (and if you're familiar with Ashens, you know he's not the type of YouTuber who exaggerates his reactions for the camera. In fact, he's gained a lot of popularity for keeping his reactions genuine). Basically, anything that can be described as "regular food, only rotten" is not touching my table, let alone my mouth. Seriously, what is wrong with people? To be fair, it turned out those eggs were expired and were not supposed to be at that state, like the yolk turning black. Whoever mailed them to him either screwed up or was kind of a jerk.

As for mine, I will not eat dog. I will not even entertain the notion.
I would also not eat surstromming, especially because I have a beard and I would be terrified of the smell lingering within.

Or is that a specific thing? Onigiri is an rice ball. Rice is Gohan. If it is Sushi,it is vinegared rice with other ingredients(that last one i had to copy from wikipedia) Sashimi is raw fish WITHOUT rice

Whoever mailed them to him either screwed up or was kind of a jerk. Still looks bloody disgusting because they're FESTERING F***ING EGGS. Hell, he's tried other expired food and even that didn't make him sick. And really, it kind of sounds like a bad joke to say that a dish of rotten egg would have tasted better if it were in date, doesn't it? I think when the egg is supposed to have the white turned brown and the yolk turned greenish grey, we are way past the point of that mattering.

Thousand year old eggs are literally the exact opposite of spoiled eggs. They come about due to a preservation method.

I've never had it. I figure, being half-filipino, I'd have try it if given the opportunity but it is rather unnerving.

The yellow-y part tastes like egg yolk. The meaty part and the juices... well, I guess I'd say it's like soup in a way. Looks-wise, yeah, not a lot of people are gonna enjoy it.

My brother-in-law said that he'd eat it if he had a chance. It's a mental and cultural thing anyway: people eat birds all the time, so balut shouldn't be all that strange.

I think when the egg is supposed to have the white turned brown and the yolk turned greenish grey, we are way past the point of that mattering. Century egg is a common ingredient in porridge/congee where I'm from (Southeast Asia). I don't know if I've been eating a "censored" version of the thing, or that because I don't eat it as a dish by itself (may have done so once before), but somehow I never have thought of it as something that people would consider too weird/disgusting to try.
