Here's what to do if you want to do this meme:
2) Bold (or make red) all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating. (I didn't know how to do this. You could italicize or make them another color.)
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at http://www.verygoodtaste.co.uk/uncategorised/the-omnivores-hundred/ linking to your results.

That's a lot of food and some that I don't know.
Eichbaum beer is imported in the States but in very small quantities. Trust me, I've looked all over for it. I'm sure I would be disappointed though, because it was made very close to where I lived in Germany and it was always fresh and cold and so smooth and clean.
NOW I'm hungry!!!!!!!! :)
I saw this over at Kay's blog also and I want to do it also.
There are a few things on that list that I am going to have to google because I have never heard of them.
Bear((( )))
Almost none for me, may be one or two there Judy.
Aaloo gobhi - potato is aaloo, gobhi is cauliflower
chken tikka is boneless chicken i think
indian stuff
phall is flat mutton, not sure
Steamed pork buns are excellent. I eat them all the time in China and Korea. They are way better than they sound. Typically a BBQ beef or pork, wrapped in a light pastry dough and steam-cooked. One of my favorite Dim Sum dishes...
Hello, Michele sent me.
Hi Judy,
Thank you for your nice comment on my blog Anniversary!
I don't eat red meat, only chicken and fish. In this list there is many I don't know...
My list would be very short. Very, very short.
You are way more adventuresome than me Judy, like others I have never even heard of lots of them.
Yes, "gum leaves" are the leaves of Eucalypti, we call them all Gum Trees, about 100 varieties grow here.
aloo gobi is an Indian dish of cauliflower and potato.
Epoisses is a French cheese.
Phall is a curry.
Paneer is Indian cheese.
Poutine is French fries covered with cheese and brown gravy.
Gjetost is goat's cheese on toast.
Tom Yum is an Asian soup.
Harissa is a strong Indian seasoning.
I get around a lot :)
Thanks for the info, Helen. You DO get around. Now I know for certain I haven't eaten any of those!
Just drove home from Glacier National Park, saw lots of road kill on highway (not much else to see in Eastern Montana and Central Wyoming). Dear heaven, who would eat that? My Mom loved sweetbreads, so I guess I know who would eat that, but why??
I hope you had as much fun with this as I did, Judy! Interesting to see what we eat.

Carp is a fish.
Aloo Gobi is a delicious curry made from potato and cauliflower - yum!
Epoisses is a cheese similar to camembert.
