A Stomach Full, Not a Chip on my Shoulder

This was the question posted recently at that rockin' foodie Web site, Karmic Kitchen:

Do you consider yourself a bold and venturesome eater? Think you could give Andrew Zimmern a run for his money? The following list of foods ranges from the mundane to the obscure. Give it the once over, then let everyone know just how audacious your taste buds are!

1) Copy this list onto your blog, including these instructions.
2) Mark the items you’ve eaten with a "+".
3) Mark any items that you would never consider eating with a "-".
4) Let us know when you've posted the list, so we can compare!
5) Have fun!

Please, do not take the fact that I've eaten most of what's on this list (and about another half-dozen weird-ass things not even listed here) as an indication that I'm some kind of gourmand. I'm not. I'm just kind of weird when it comes to food. Weird in that when other people go, "Yew, no way am I trying that!" I'm instead the first in line with my mouth open. As if not trying earthworms or Rocky Mountain oysters at least once will somehow slam the door forever shut on a rewarding – or at least interesting – life exerpience. Gourmand? No. Curious Piggy? Yes.
