"Shark - I fear it.. so I ate it as a form of therapy :P"

hahaha that made me laugh! and i think i'll app;y that to my eating habits from now on :P

a cornish pasty is like a big ass baked sambosa with potato veggies and meat fillings, and are quite nice :P

escargot is a must, preferably when youre in france.

oh and a lahksa in malaysia, its kinda like the thai curry but red, and creamy.

3abeer said...

skunk,

welcome to my humble blog :)
you can apply the fear tactic to whatever is edible.. try to avoid human beings that you fear..if you do.. because I don't want you turning into a cannibal :P

I will try the conish pasty & lahksa...
escargot is one of my favorite dishes.. had it in the states..will definitly have it when I go to paris :)

fire alarm said...

I've tried almost everything on ur list, minus the croc, kangroo and the furry creature. I think I wanna try sharks. Heard the shark fin soup is suppose to be amazing.

Thinking of stuff I might have tasted and include in the list would be camel meat or thabaan (thub).

3abeer said...

Thanks sweets :)

croc..tastes like chicken!
kangaroo.. haven't tried it either
shark meat tastes really good..you should try it :)

camel meat I have tried recently and after I posted this.. bas thub??? ambaih! what does it taste like? ...latheeth?

thanks ;)

3abeer said...

first time visit? welcome welcome.

you don't have to eat caviar it's an acquired taste and not alot of people like it, so you're not alone :)

that been said, how about I tag you so you'd tell us what you've tried from the list ;)

"you are officially TAGGED.. have fun :)"
