I was just thinking of all these things that you don’t eat on a normal basis.
I hate caviar so much. I’ve tried it many times and although I’ve tried to enjoy it, I end up being very nauseated just at the thought of eating raw fish eggs and they are so slimy.
However, I love mussels which are also slimy. At the same time, oysters are similar and I’m not fond of them.
I’ve never tried escargot but my brother loves it and I’m just disgusted at the thought of it.
Then there are pigeons. omg! I see them everywhere and I don’t like how they look I don’t know how people can eat them!
Overall I’m not a seafood person but love lobsters and certain fish. I just can’t stand the smell of it.
Have you guys tried any of these and if so what did you think?
i have these all the time my dear… i am married to a frenchie…
Caviar (if a good quality one is used) is really good… you can have it with good cheese and cracker (rupayHalwas ears must be burning now) or on blinis…
yeh but do u love all of them or do u like only certain things? did u like them initially or did u get used to them? cuz i just cant stand caviar and dont get the hype of it.
I do not like lobster...dont understand the hype either. Ive tried it a couple of times and it tastes like rubber with butter...:(
I hate shrimp..............YUCK!
I like salmon, white fish, mahi mahi, butterfish, halibut, swordfish...many more. Love fish.
Ive seen people eat oysters...there is actually an oyster-fest that takes place in Chicago every year for people who love oysters...and there are many. I just cant stand the things!
For some reason I'm squeamish about mussels, oysters and other molluscs except for scallops, which are ok at times. Cannot bring myself to even taste mussels. Wouldn't dream of touching a snail (Maroush said it all, slimey!).
I wouldn't have a problem with eating pigeon meat.
I have tried mussels/oysters/clams and do NOT like them at all. And I had what was considered a good variety or whatever, as everyone else who was having them was raving so much about how good they were so I tried. I was disgusted. I also hate scallops. I love all sorts of Fish & also Shrimp. I like crab/lobster that is cooked with something else, but do not like say a crab leg steamed or a lobster tail. They don't necessarily taste bad, but just not so delicious/appetizing either. But I love crab cakes made with fresh crab meat and less bread crumbs....yummm.'
Never had escargot/caviar & never will try them...ewwwwwww
I used to love Caviar , until I had some at Marriot in Islamabad a few years ago .. and almost threw up! ewwww it was pathetic .. after that one time it was never the same … my love for Caviar just vanished ..:no:
I have had oyster , its yukh… Squid is even terrible … I hate fish but can stand sushi just about a tiny bit … I am not really a big fan of sea food … boah …
the issue is that most places dont make them well.
psquared if you want some good yet sensibly priced lobster or crab go to bob chins on milwaukee ave around Northbrook/deerfield area.
overdone lobster, squid, octops will always become rubbery, its like ovedone steak that becomes too hard.
it has to be fresh, it has to be decent quality and the person making it better know how to make it.
oyster etc i have had, I dont mind it, not a big fan though.

I'm not much of a seafood person myself. I developed a love and taste for shrimp about less than two years ago. And only recently, in the past few months, have I developed a taste...for crab meat....in the form of crab rangoon. I don't like the strong fishy smell of certain seafoods. So my taste for seafood is only confined to these two things (fried shrimp and crab rangoon).
As far as slimy is concerned......I think egg-drop soup is gross cuz it's slimy. and the slimy feeling lingers in the throat. And I don't like okra (bhindi) because I think it's slimy. So.....based on these tow facts.......I don't think i'll be trying mussels or oysters or caviar anytime soon. LOL :)
We have lots of slugs here in the UK , I heard people like eating them as well … they are one useless species .. hate em .. I can send some over to all of you snail lovers
spot on Sumo … I actually feel sorry for the squid species but they taste awful …
Biryani is in a league of its own , its a queen dish … my friend once made seafood biryani … tasted awful though i had to compliment her but frankly i couldnt eat anything for a few days after I had that seafood biryani!
I cant stand the clams either … ! they freak me out ..
