Welcome to top ten reasons I am a vegetarian
The concept alone is gross

One pinhead ...read more. Fugu is pufferfish, the ultimate delicacy in Japan. Fugu can be deadly if not prepared correctly. Pufferfish contains the poisonous toxin tetrodotoxin, which is 1,250 times stronger than cyanide. You could end up paralysed and eventually die from asphyxiation because there is no known antidote.
It can kill you. No way am I ever eating that I
Bird nests made predominantly out of saliva that are used in Chinese cuisine. These nests are mostly added to soups, but also to other dishes.
Price - about $2,500 per kilogram in Asia.
$2,500? Gee whiz, that's a lot of money! I could use that money for house payments instead... but where's the fun in that?
Just plain disgusting
A delicacy for tourists in Cambodia. Tarantulas are fried whole - legs, fangs and all. They are seasoned with salt, garlic and chilli. They’re said to taste like a combo between chicken and cod.
That comment is awesome. How would something taste like Call of Duty?
I really hope people who only eat this out of national tradition
A raw dish consisting of live octopus typical in Korea. It's called sannakji. Live octopus is cut into pieces, lightly seasoned with sesame oil and served immediately, the tentacles still squirming on the plate.
Sardinian cheese riddled with insect larvae. The cheese has to be eaten when the maggots are still alive because when they are dead, it is considered to be toxic.
It was banned for health reasons, but can still be found on the black market in Sardinia and other parts of Italy.
Why would someone willingly eat maggots?
Chunks of jelly-consistency pig blood. But duck, sheep, chicken and cow blood is also used in China. It looks like chocolate chunks...

Up to 500 whole auks are packed into the seal skin. Over the course of three months, the birds ferment, and are then eaten during the arctic winter, particularly on birthdays and weddings." - wiki
Absolutely disgusting Greenland delicacy.
It's a worm usually served raw with salt and sesame oil in Korea.
In China, the worm is stir-fried with vegetables.
Shirako in Japanese means “white children”, but refers to the sperm sacs of either cod, angler fish or pufferfish. Looking like white blobs of goo or miniature brains, they are said to have a sweet custardy taste. Yum.
I hate autocorrect...BreakFastBeast2005 didn't write 'the sperm sacs of Call of Duty" 😂.
The same happened to me. It's c-o-d and not Call of Duty.
Yeah, they actually eat this in Japan
