I'm not a vegetarian but I dislike factory farming and I support small, family farms.

Omnivoracious
This little list has been idling around the food blogger world for a few weeks. I decided to take a look and I am sad to say that I have eaten 90 of these and know for a fact that I will never hit 100 since I have no intention of eating fugu and I'd probably skip the kaolin too - although I may have eaten it and never known since it IS an additive. For the record I have not eaten crocodile, vodka jell-o shots, phaal, fugu, poutine, kaolin, durian, pocky, three-star tasting menu and maybe epoisses (that one is a maybe since I would assume I have eaten some but I might not have). I have eaten the rest - yes, even roadkill, insects and a big mac meal.
I have to say that if I were to make a list like this it would be very different. It might be time to resurrect the much more interesting list of 50 things every foodie should do at least once.

I will most definitely pass on Horse. No thanks. As far as #88 - I would recommend Nasturtiums and Roses. Subtle flavor, but everyone should try them once.
Interesting list! Not so sure about no 100 though... but no 74 should definitely be higher up on the list! :)
