What's the most disgusting thing you've eaten on your travels? For me, it was 童子蛋(also known as Virgin Boy Egg) in China. It's really popular to eat eggs that have been boiled in boy's urine (similar to tea egg) there. It's absolutely vile, but hey, 'When in Rome...' as they say.
Mcdonalds
I had durian for the first time recently
I don't get the hate, it was just incredibly underwhelming.
It tastes like farts
How would you know what farts taste like?
Never attempting 69 with you’re mother ever again
It tasted like a not sweet mango that had been sitting a bowl used to dice onion
Durian flavored shit is gross because it's concentrated, and ruins everything around it.
Got an ice cream bar in thailand that tasted like chocolate durian because it was kept in the same container as durian ice cream. It smells like fish that's going bad but not quite rotten.
So it's like olives
I ate an olive straight off the tree once when walking in Croatia
It didn’t taste good at all and made my mouth incredibly dry
A coworker brought durian candy into the office as a joke. I initially kept eating them to mess with everyone around me because everyone hated it, but then genuinely started liking the flavor
Durian is fucking vile. I feel like a moron because it's one of the very few foods to actually make me gag.
The moment the strong onion aftertaste hits following the otherwise fine melon-like flavor is just too much. It does not pair at all.
I think Durian would actually be good if they bred the sulfur component to be lower, but still there. It's like Indian black salt with lime soda. I asked for a version of it without about 1/4 of the normal black salt and it was great.
I had durian candy that was disgusting
Didn't Bourdain I think I remember once split a whole durian and literally eat the whole thing in a single setting
I think you have to be in a stoic mood to tackle it properly
Disgusting
I had the Icelandic fermented shark. Taste is OK believe it or not but the smell is just awful.
I want to try the Swedish tinned herring thing but it’s seasonal so not had the chance yet.
Do Icelandic people actually enjoy it or is something they just carry on for traditional reasons?
You can buy it in supermarkets all year round. I get the impression it’s a traditional thing eaten for special occasions and tourist trolling.
same thing is in korea, and its the only korean food i really didnt like to eat. taste is mild but its basically a shot of ammonia/windex directly up your nose every bite. the first one i had i thought it was just normal raw fish. its fucked and i dont get how it can be an acquired taste. not like "ooh notes of ammonia" but stinging burning sensation of ammonia spray touching your sinuses. retarded
You've posted this exact thread countless times before.
Hope you're getting paid for this, doing it for free would be too pathetic.
>t.
It's a butthurt mutt or a bot.
KEK
>doing it for free would be too pathetic
Blame it on the autism
This comes in duck, chicken or quail (at least in laos). Quail is the best and easiest to eat. Draft Beer lao and quail eggs. Surprisingly tasty
>NO YOU CAN'T JUST POST THE SAME THING MORE THAN ONCE THIS IS sighsee THE HOME OF INSIGHTFUL AND ORIGINAL THREADS
It's a triggered bugman
I have been to China a dozen of times and I have never seen it.
op is obviously lying do you think he really ate it he just learn about it on the internet
I've seen it. It's actually pretty common
Silkworm poo tea in Myanmar.
Isn't urine sterile? Not a big deal to boil something in it, certainly not eggs since they have a shell as well.
>t. never had a virgin boy egg
It's 'double hard-boiled'. The egg is initially hard-boiled, and then the shell is cracked to absorb and soak in the piss flavor for 8-12 hours
Chinese people should get genocided honestly
Anyway I never ate anything even remotely as gross as the stuff in this thread. Had some gross pork thing in Thailand but it wasn’t like pork piss or pork cock it was just dumb morons have no sense of taste. I personally think you can experience the culture without going full “fear factor.”
The guy who came up with this had to be be a pedophile with a piss fetish, there's no other explanation.
It's just some standard chinese food. Relax.
urine isn't sterile
Go see the doctor. Urine is entirely sterile under normal conditions.
Can't verify to this day but pretty sure I ate some intestine lining or some cut up animal organ in China, because I couldn't read the menu, I had a translator dictionary with me but it was tedious so I asked the cashier if items are Hispanicy and the first no I just ordered it. She knew what it was. What I got was rice, vegetables, and a brown substance that looks like mushroom stems but the texture was like chewing for ages per bite. I was hungry so I sat there and ate nearly all of it. I was at a cafeteria mall so not really busy, no one watching me struggle. That's how you do foreign countries I guess, pick at random and see what you get.
But everything else I ate in China was delicious, quite greasy but worth it and cheap too
sounds like tripe
You sure? It was a medium dark brown, and it was in a thick semi circle shape. I would have to dig through my photos but I have it somewhere
If it had a vague honeycomb look to it then probably tripe
Another alternative is intestines / chitterlings.
Both are disgusting poverty foods
both are fucking delicious
by your description I guarantee it was 肥肠 aka pig intestine
Gross
>unidentifiable organ meat in china
ishygddt. probably cat ovaries or something else rancid
sliced penises
Ordered "snails" at a seaside restaurant expecting conch and got escargots instead. Literally barf-inducing. Frogs are fucked in the head.
Wouldn't trust anything in China but chitlings can be delicious if cooked right, specially grilled. If it's chewy they fucked up.

Never had snails. Afraid to try
I envy people like this.
>I ate this disgusting shit
>I ate almost all of it
>everything else I ate in China was delicious
I'm not even a fussy eater in the west, I'll happily eat anything on the menu, foreign food or not. When I go to Asia I can't force myself to eat some of the stuff the locals eat. Even Thailand, the self-acclaimed 'worlds kitchen', it's just fucking totally unpalatable. Even in a beautiful, expensive restaurant I just couldn't get past the first bite. I was done. It's really embarrassing sometimes, If I force myself to swallow it, I just gag.
Thailand isn't bad at all. From my travels, Vietnam and China have the most disgusting dishes. I've heard Phillipines is bad too, but can't confirm because I haven't been there.
>I can't eat animal organ
Retarded american gay
organ meat is pretty shit though fr
Chinese use seitan quite a bit. If you've never had it, it appears to be meat but it could be difficult to identify. Depending on how its made it could be pretty chewy.
Maybe it's possible you ate that?
Seitan is just wheat gluten, right?
Fish fluff sweet bread buns in China and the nigiri that was dripping of deep frying oil in Hell's Kitchen are strong contenders.
Plane food and airport food. I lost 20% of my body weight after an insane food poisoning I got at Stansted. I wasn't overweight, so it very nearly ended in hospitalization.
So Pret at Stansted wins for me.
I'm very proficient in using hand gestures and I also speak many languages, so I rarely end up eating things I don't want to. Also I don't mind eating horse head or fried bugs or whatever. As long as it doesn't make me ill, bring it on.
the nigiri that was dripping of deep frying oil
yeah natto is just not very tasty, its been a long time not terrible but distinctly not good, like notes of metal in its taste. and this is from someone who eats doenjang/miso and cheonggukjang a lot. natto is edible but not good especially cold
The chinaman is backwards piss eggs
Bear bile snake soup and snake wine
Dog meat and insects on a stick they’re truly a depraved people
They also eat all kinds of crazy shit for "medicine"
true, romans were only using urine as mouthwash until the 18th century, it's time for china to stop weird shit for medicine now
>18th century
Western medicine has evolved quite a bit over the past 300 years. TCM is fake and gay.
Yeah, and that's gross too. Their consumption of animal waste products does not justify tiger penis stew or bear bile tea or whatever other disgusting shit the chinks eat to improve their qi
China's been ahead on medicine for centuries, only dumb white hillbillies would ever be dumb or rude enough to be served that. Sadly there are a lot of those, and so these rumors live on.
>China's been ahead on medicine for centuries, only dumb white hillbillies would ever be dumb or rude enoug-*ACK*!!!

Poos literally drink cow pee and shit cause they think it's "medicine".

Natto in Japan was fuckin vile. Even my buddy's parents from Tokyo with whom I had dinner with told me not to eat it
I worked in a super white washed korean owned sushi chain and they tried selling natto beans. Literally look and smell like something from Gremlins, almost every table sent them back.
Natto is actually semi-decent if you mix it up with mustard. Plain, I'll agree, fucking vile.
Natto is delicious. All the intenstine dishes in japan are vile however. Asians don't seem to realize you aren't suppose to eat those parts
>natto is delicious
It really isn't tho
>Asians don't seem to realize you aren't suppose to eat those parts
Only Americans don't eat intestines. Almost every culture in the Eurasian continent has a dish that involves this cut of the animal.
>Only Americans don't eat intestines
we do but for marketing reasons it isn't called that. they're called "natural casing" sausages.
Most of the stuff I've had was here in LA but we have a lot of variety and food scene, including durian, 100 year egg, lutefisk, natto, monkfish liver, scorpions, grasshoppers, etc...
but by far the worst thing I've ever had is chinese stinky tofu. its literally like hot manure and I could taste it after 3 days no matter how much i brushed and flossed.
If stinky tofu is the worst thing you ever ate than you haven't truly eaten anything bad. It doesn't even taste that bad.
I've eaten your mums ass
Stinky tofu isn't even bad. Especially if it's fried.
Any examples of british food?
Mince pie from Sainsbury's. My host family was accusing me and my friends of sneaking in McDonald's.
We were starving. We were extremely hungry. Did not eat McD or anything else, we needed food badly. But those mince pies were just not food. I still remember that taste of the first bite I took. It took a lot of energy to swallow it, it was insanely bad.
(We did go to a supermarket first thing the following morning and stock up on actual food, cause there was no way we would risk that situation again. The rest of the meals were better, though.)
What are you on about? Mince pies are lovely, can't have a Christmas without them
Good for you. The ones I encountered were industrial trash. Maybe it was a bad batch. But I'm not gonna risk it again.
I only attempted to eat them again in New Zealand, and those were heavenly. But that was some homemade stuff, not the industrial waste level crap they tried to feed me in the UK.
I ate rat in Vietnam; I guess I couldn't quibble with the flavor. Also tried camel intestines, I assume they were washed properly.
Fuck man I'll crush an entire 6-pack of those things in the amount of time it takes to chew them. Thank god they're not available in my home country.
Do you mean the Christmas small pies filled with Hispaniced dried fruit, or the hot water crust minced lamb pie you get in Scotland? Either way both are delicious and you are wrong
>pastry with Hispaniced fruit and brandy causes Amerimutt to shit and piss himself
sad
Fruit my ass. That Sainsbury's one is 100% industrial waste, see
I was born and raised in Eastern Europe, mostly ate homecooked meals and lots of fresh veggies and fruits. We had a dozen different fruit trees in our backyard. That's why it made no sense. It was especially insulting that they insinuated that we had gone to some fast-food joint. We were like wtf, does the UK exclusively eat trash and they assume that everyone just wants to eat trash?
But yeah, like I said I did eat a quality version of the same dish in New Zealand a few decades later, that was amazing.
Yeah you are fucking retarded, mince pies with a dash of cream at xmas are king food, You just have shitty taste. Saino's is an middle upper tier supermarket, it's no Marks and Sparks but it's not going to be doing bad mince pies. Maybe pour corn syrup or gone off milk to make them to your countries taste
>Mince pie
>bad
Your opinion is absolutely wrong, m8.
Eating one right one!
Bird's Nest Soup made out of bird spit
Fertilised duck egg. Balut as they say in the phillipines I think, in vietnam it is trung vit lon. It was actually alright, basically just a hard boiled egg with meat instead of yolk, I was the only person from my hostel willing to have it though.
I don't get normies aversion to balut. It tastes great, especially with the lime salt and pepper sauce that usually comes with it. The fetus is ok tasting but the actual yolk and amniotic fluid is fucking amazing
What about the bones?
It's a duck fetus so the bones aren't formed yet. It's texturally similar to biting through soft liver. The taste is pretty mild though, but it is a bit of a mindfuck to be eating a duck fetus.
Not even a slight crunch?
that's not even the grossest thing I've eaten in the philippines
Brutal. Is Flip food as fucked up as Vietnamese food?
What’s wrong with dinuguan?
Sure it looks terrible but it tastes delicious especially with extra vinegar
Looks disgusting

pigs ears from a chinese restaurant in australia
I was expecting something fried or maybe barbecued but they were just raw and cold and I felt a bit sick after eating them
Chinks almost never eat raw meat, especially pork.
They usually steam or boil ears, served and sliced cold.
>For me, it was 童子蛋(also known as Virgin Boy Egg
You already posted this a few months ago, pedo. Is this your proudest life moment?

durian
my girlfriend eats durian cake regularly. and she wonders why i dont wanna give her head
>she

yes,and? what's your point?
girls give head, guys eat pussy
>Virgin boy eggs are widely accepted as a time-honored tradition of the city, rather than considered taboo as they are most other cultures.[3] Boy egg vendors go to elementary schools in the city where they collect urine from young boys, preferably under the age of ten. The children, having been raised in the city and its culture, are used to the practice. As young boys would in schools from many other cultures, they excuse themselves from class when they feel the urge to urinate. However, instead of going to the restroom, they relieve themselves in the basin that the vendors place in the hallways. Some vendors go as far as to wait with containers in parks or public restrooms for a parent who is willing to let their child offer urine.
Legit reads like a shitpost what the fuck
Imagine if it’s just a massive troll and uri e eggs aren’t actually a thing
They are though. Specialty in Zhejiang
chinks eat really vile shit
pic rel looks about 100x better than average amerifat sloppa shit. the only somewhat gross thing i see is the improvised and likely never cleaned plastic bottles used for sauces he has. fucking hate the 3rd world using plastic shit NOT INTENDED FOR OIL/ACOHOL/ACID. its fucking decomposing the hydrocarbons and entering the food.
>heh, KFC goyslop? No thanks, I'll go with the chink street tripe like a true traveller™

I drank tap water in Algeria and ended up in the hospital. I was never this sick in my life, i was pissing, shitting, vomiting and crying at the same time i didn't even know such a thing was possible.
Cholera?

Ladyboy cum unironically. I feel bad just thinking about it.
What it taste like?
Storytime? Also lel
It tastes good though.
Storytime
I ate crickets 2 days ago in a guacamole in CDMX. It was pretty much just the same taste and texture as fried shallots, except you could feel their spindly legs as you chewed. Not that bad, but really not that interesting either.
Thinking of heading to CDMX in the next year or two. Best non-gross food to get there?
Goat eye taco
That's not real
tacos de ojos are very popular in Mexico. They have a soft texture and are quite flavorful, not disgusting at all.
I had crickets and some bugs as part of a cream cheese bagel in Germany not too long ago. I agree, it was like fried shallot. The only thing that bothered me was that some of the crickets were very intact as I got the bagel.
They are ahead in quite a few aspects now as well, even in "Western" type medical research. It's weird to see only the Chinese advancing research in some medical areas. But then you look at their studies closer, and you realize that it's because they use eg. Uyghurs in their experiments. Full on Nazi scientist vibes.
>they use Uyghurs in their experiments
Let me guess, Epoch Times or one of their affiliates said that?
Not, you got to go straight to the source - the State Department.
>we dindu nuffin!
This might sound mundane, but the worst thing I've tasted recently was some Chinese fermented chicken feet.
I eat fermented stuff.
I eat chicken feet.
But that one thing I tried yesterday...that was awful. First of all because I expected it to be warm and Hispanicy(it was red). But when I ate it, I was struck with an unexpected sour taste, and also cold chicken feet. I could barely swallow it. If it was actually warm, yeah maybe I could have done it.
>Chinks
>eating gross shit
everytime
My ex-girlfriend was chinese and she loved chicken feet like most girls love chocolate. Weird shit
kek same, and she ate them with the sort of gusto you'd expect someone to reserve for trufffles and sturgeon caviar. Was she Cantonese by any chance?
I once ate a pussy ghonnerea infected pussy while I was drunk, tasted something funky then went to the bathroom and saw chunks of yellow gunk all over my beard and mustache. Then the smell and taste really hit me. I projectile vomited all over the bathroom and fell into the shower the violently retch and roll around in my own puke while wailing in disgust and pain.
Not my finest moment.
That is fucked.
logging off tonight.. that's too much for me and I watch the rekt webm's in Adult GiF
Horrifying

I smelled that through the screen
I am hungover and my stomach started to turn

How about the aardvark?
It's bait. Aardvark is native to Africa
Just avoid China.
No shit
In the US I've had the following at restaurants:
-moose
>Chewy, tough, tastes weird
-rat
>Like chicken but too chewy
-alligator
>Like chicken but softer
-candied bugs
>These are surprisingly everywhere. Museums, gift shops, convenience stores. Thought it was a developing country thing but I guess Americans like it a lot.
-fried cola, butter, Twinkies, Oreos
>Too filling, tastes like concentrated sugar and oil. Dunno why Americans have it all the time.
-snake
>Similar to alligator
-American candy
>Worse than rat, absolutely disgusting. I went down the candy isle and tried a bit of everything. Couldn't find a single I liked. Really shockingly revolting.
-a “tv dinner”
>This is literally prison food.
Obviously I've had “classic” American food like burgers, pizza, etc., but you can get that anywhere since it's the menu of globohomo.
The only good food in the US is foreign food, and even it's hit or miss depending if it's been bastardized by American “tastes”.
>t. triggered bugman
moose is delicious kys
A art of trolling
lol imagine being a turkish ice cream man and getting paid to fuck with tourists all day
You should try bison. Delicious.
>TV dinner
Yeah it's really fucking bad. No idea why they eat that shit

a friend sends me jars of moose meat from Newfoundland, most of it doesn't even make it to the pan, I end up eating it out of the jar at room temp because it's too fucking good
you can taste all the evergreens they eat, it's great
Fresh whale sperm in Kodiak Alaska. It was really disgusting. The thought of it makes me want to throw up. The only reason why I did it is because I was in the Coast guard at the time and everyone else did it.
Salty? Did you make it into a soup?

>sure I'll eat that

>ewww what the fuck!?
It's a local tradition
It was in my home town but narwhal meat/blubber (muktuk) and seal blubber is pretty nasty. Beaver stew is bad too but I think you could dress it up better than I’ve had it.
How's it served?
The muktuk? It was frozen. I think thawed would have been worse tbh. With it being frozen I was able to avoid some of the oiliness
How can you eat it frozen? Can you cook with it?
You just chew it up, freeze a cube of Guanciale fat and let is soak and cod liver oil if you want to get the experience.
Hmm
Canada?
Ate dog meat in Kowloon HK, they only give it to trusted people which my HK friend was, was pretty good, lean af
I'm surprised you could find it there

How was the shenzhen dog meat served?

Meds. Now.
I'm a total food pleb and a vegetarian so that quite limits the exotic items in a foreign country already. I'm also cheap so I hate going to restaurants and I am alone so sitting in a restaurant by myself is horrific anyway. I usually just buy known groceries and eat in my hotel room. Bread, cheese, potato chips, maybe some salad. That's about it.
You should try stinky tofu. It's good
why would I wanna eat something that's stinky?
It smells bad, but you get used to it. It's an acquired taste that grows on you I guess
It's better when it's fried
I once ate chunchullo from a street vendor in Colombia, mistaking it for chicharron (Colombian chicharron is fucking amazing). It was extremely rubbery and still contained some shit grit. But it was well grilled and only caused mild turbulence.
>chicharron
Pork belly is fantastic. If you're ever in Taiwan, Gua Bao is one of the best street foods to try
