Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Foods that turn your stomach?

Dad never made me eat anything. What was for supper is what was for supper. I didn't have to eat it but I wasn't getting anything else.

To this day I'm the least picky eater I know.

Yep!

Balut isn't so bad if you can get past the texture of the feet and beak. I really can't think of a food in the US that I find totally repulsive. The ones I don't care for, I mainly don't like because of the texture.

I once at a raw octopus tentacle and it nearly choked me. It sucked onto the back of my throat, and I couldn't swallow it or cough it up. I finally got it down after chugged a couple of beers.

I'll pretty much eat anything, but one thing I'd refuse to put in my mouth would be hakarl from Iceland.

That's okay, chicken and dumplings for supper, baked butternut squash, and double chocolate cake. Daughter Maggie's birthday dinner, so her favorites on the menu tonight.

What time you getting here ?

that's more like it.
Am I heading S or N?

North, south as of November 19th....

NO NO NO!!!!!

But it's cold up there!

This I don't understand. Grouper is the best saltwater fish EVER.

Was a hunting show that a big amazon-looking blonde gal starred in. Her big thing was hunting everything and eating it along with whatever the local fare was.

I seem to remember her eating a boiled egg that had been aged and pickled in horse urine. She took a big bite and explained it tasted just like a rotting egg soaked in horse piss. Can't remember what is was called, but I wouldn't try it. Made me gag a little just watching it.

I've tried a bunch of weird stuff, grubs, bugs & such. I've never had balut and won't. I don't like the texture of flan and won't eat it, even to be courteous.

I can fix that !

I was raised the same way. There are some things I don't care for that my wife cooks, but I'll never complain. I'll either eat it anyway or not. There will be another meal tomorrow.

The only thing I simply won't eat, at least that I've tried, is boiled cabbage. If given a steady diet of it I'd probably just starve to death.

Any type insect or worm, anything in a stage of rottenness, anything having passed through and out of a digestive system, having been previously eaten by something or someone else.

That narrows it down a bit... that along with brussel sprouts.

Rare steak/meat, if it's still bleeding I'm not eating it.

Real mayonnaise, love miracle whip and mayonnaise from restaurants but can't stand the stuff you buy at the store.

Stir Fry...gag!

I just thought of another one.
In Vietnam, I was a Loadmaster on C-130's. We were on a trash hauling mission one day, and part of it was resupplying South Korean troops.
It's hard to believe, but we were picking up a SECOND load (35,000 pounds each !!) of canned "Fish Heads and Rice in Red Sauce" to be delivered to their base.

My curiosity got the best of me, and I decided (while in flight) to open a can and see what the hell we were hauling that the Koreans obviously ate a ton of (actually, a heck of a lot more than that).
I whipped out my trusty p38 on my dog tag chain, grabbed a can off of a pallet, and commenced to open it.

Now you know that saying "Don't get any water on it, and Never, never ever feed it after midnight" ?
Well I can add a 3rd part to that... NEVER open a can of Korean "Fish Heads and Rice" while in flight without at least one paratroop door open to throw it out of"
Holy Jeebus Mamma... Instantly the crew up in the cockpit started bitching "What the hell is that stink?"
I felt like I had a grenade in my hand, pin pulled, and nowhere to throw it.
I caught hell for the rest of the day, it was like trying to get a road kill smell out of your car, when a cat died on your exhaust manifold.

Never ate any.... I can't even imagine

Now that was funny!

fresh tomatoes, not sure why......parents didnt have alot of money when i was younger and grew a large garden every year to add tot eh diet, dad has grown tomatoes for aslong as i can remember and i cant stand them or even really choke them down. odd thing is i dont mind things like spaghetti or such, not my favorite dinner but i have no problem eating it.

A recent study found that women who cook bad meals live much longer than the men who mention it.

I'll also add raw tomatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe! All disgust me.

Spinach, greens, blah pftueey!
