Tuyo! My wife loves these. She'll make a big plate of them, then tear them apart with her bare hands, dipping them chunk by chunk into a small bowl of pickle brine. When she's done there's nothing left but a pile of eyeballs and lips on the plate.

There was that YouTuber who would eat live stuff. We live in a mad world

Was it that Asian women who did mukbangs where she was eating live sea animals? She didn't just eat them alive, she was actually torturing them. Stuff like taking the "outer layer" off of them (multiple ones at the same time), dipping them in sauce and then just letting them sit. She was also laughing about it. Made me so angry watching that.

Yup. She was not a nice lady.

Balut - partially developed chicken or duck embryos. It's served a number of ways, but the one that turned my stomach was boiled in the shell and served like a soft-boiled egg. Watched my Filipino friend eat it. He scooped the whole thing into his mouth and when he bit down, the body cavity of the embryo ruptured, causing the entrails to pop out of his mouth. Then he slurped them back in like spaghetti. That's about when I refilled the beer pitcher with my puke.

Surströmming - fermented herring. Looks like rotten fish. Smells like rotten fish. Tastes like...well I don't know. All I can tell you is it was salty, but beyond that all I tasted was vomit. Watching a neophyte eating it will usually treat you to the sound of gagging, followed by vomiting. Maybe your own, since the smell is truly pervasive.

Okay that first one is easily the most horrifying thing I've read this morning, and this is minutes after reading about the dude who mixed his dad's sperm with his own.

Will Smith eating spaghetti.

Or watching Eminem eat spaghetti and then go on stage with a dirty sweater.
I was booing him all night, the nervous fuck.

Some great stuff here, but I'll vote for natto. I enjoy it, but it is very gross to watch somebody eat, like seeing somebody eat a big bowl of the slimiest orange snot you've ever seen. Literally you can string it across a room.

It tastes like a mixture of cheese, hummus, and pungent soy sauce. It's definitely a different flavor, umami is the only way I can describe it.
