New Year, New food

Is there a new food you want to try this year? Or a new recipe you want to make?

I think I am pretty adventurous when it comes to food. There is not a lot I won't try at least once. That is how I was brought up & I still seem to follow that pattern now. I think it has stood me in good stead & so I am now bringing up the boys the same way. They have to at least try the new food & if they don't like it that's fine they don't have to have it.

What I might baulk at would be eating those outragoeus things that they eat on programs like Survivor. I would have to be pretty hungry I would imagine to be able to stomach things like balut http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balut That just looks icky, but then mind over matter or hunger might win out.

I can honestly say that I don't plan on ever eating balut! Just reading the definition had me gagging! EWWWWW!

Eww yeah that balut is just plain disgusting - just the thought makes me gag.
