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.

I had durian for the first time recently
I don't get the hate, it was just incredibly underwhelming.

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.

Isn't urine sterile? Not a big deal to boil something in it, certainly not eggs since they have a shell as well.
--- 2409407
>>2409293
Do Icelandic people actually enjoy it or is something they just carry on for traditional reasons?
--- 2409416
>>2409352
>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

It tasted like a not sweet mango that had been sitting a bowl used to dice onion
--- 2409809
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 spicy 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
--- 2409829
>>2409407
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.
--- 2409851
>>2409809
sounds like tripe
--- 2409877
>>2409851
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
--- 2409884
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.

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.

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.

>>2409266 (OP)
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.
--- 2411390
>>2411377
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.

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.)
--- 2411957
>>2411873
What are you on about? Mince pies are lovely, can't have a Christmas without them
--- 2412098
I ate rat in Vietnam; I guess I couldn't quibble with the flavor. Also tried camel intestines, I assume they were washed properly.
>>2411873
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.
--- 2412102
>>2409271
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
--- 2412107

Do you mean the Christmas small pies filled with spiced dried fruit, or the hot water crust minced lamb pie you get in Scotland? Either way both are delicious and you are wrong
--- 2412147

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.

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 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.

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.

>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.

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 gooks have no sense of taste. I personally think you can experience the culture without going full “fear factor.”

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 spicy(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.

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.
