@error Closest I ever came to that was bringing in a box of durian popsicles, but everyone who participated was warned in advance.
(Result: three of us, including myself, threw them away about halfway through. They weren't making us sick or anything, we just weren't getting any enjoyment out of them. The fourth guy finished his, then complained because there were only four in the box.)

@DogsB yeah, it has fungus and sweetcorn, both can be yeeted off with prejudice.

I don't watch the Game Grumps, but my son does. Apparently, they have a second channel of non-game content, including eating disgusting foods. They did an episode on fish and seafood, which ended with Swedish fish. Not the candy kind; the fermented kind.
They opened a tin of surströmming in a small room containing the two of them and 10 or so spectators. Several people could be heard retching off-camera, and one was heard to leave the room. Arin tried a small bite and immediately spit it out. He said he wanted to try another bite, but his body wouldn't let him.
Allegedly, they had to let the studio air out for two months before they could record in it again.

@HardwareGeek Yeah, you don't open those indoors. Or if you do, you do so underwater. The cans tend to spew stinky fluid when opened and whatever that gets on smells for a long time. You can always rub it down with tomato sauce to make it smell less though.
And, you should keep the cans around for a year extra so they swell nicely. If the can isn't bulging, they aren't "ripe" yet.
But in all honesty, the taste is far less bad than the smell.

Because by the time you get it in your mouth, your sense of smell (which handles most taste) is already offline from the reek. So the delta between (smell, taste +smell) is basically the texture, which I've been told isn't exactly great either.

That is said of Limburger cheese, too, but I have no intention of getting close enough to either to find out for myself. "Less bad" is a relative description, and "not bad enough to make you puke" is not an adequate level of goodness.

I dislike all forms of pickled fish, they all kinda taste like snot with some flavoring. This isn't much different. It just kicks you in the nose first.

Yeah, it's pickled fish, so the texture is kinda snot-like.

And "kinda snot-like" is one of those textures that very much fits into this thread. I've had sinus crud all week, so I'm very attuned to the mouth feel of mucus.

I won't eat scallops, but it's nothing to do with the texture. Rather, it's the knowledge that they eat through their buttholes.

@boomzilla The milk is made from vegetarian fed chickens in the same way as almond milk is made from almonds.
-
OP's chickens may have only given eggs, but have they ever tried feeding them vegetarians to see what happened?
-
@Zecc said in Nope, you eat it:

I am in favor of this experiment. <reverb>SCIENCE</reverb> must be done!!! Better yet, for proper scientific method, there should also be a group fed vegans (and a control group fed non-vegetarian obnoxious twits).

Chickens will happily eat mice, and mice are usually vegetarian.
-
@dkf mice will happily eat bird eggs, insects, or just about anything else they can.

Stupid fucking asshole 'roach volunteered as tribute and I wasn't awake enough at the time to notice before I found it weird that the cheerios were a bit sharper and crunchier and much grosser than typical.

@Tsaukpaetra Totally misleading picture. Cockroaches are insects, while the photo on the left clearly depicts woodlice (aka pillbugs, sowbugs, and a lot of other names) which are isopods.

TBF if you bit into a whole cow …
That "milk" would (if it were possible to really make it in quantities) be from milking cockroaches, not blending them. To eat them whole, deep fry them and don't get the garbage- and cheerio-fed ones to begin with.

Cockroaches are insect, not mamals, so they cannot be milked. The only way to make milk from them is to use the same approach as with soy or almond and that is blending them. I suppose they'd still be cooked in some suitable way first though.

Unlike other insect species, this Hawaiian native gives birth to live young. And she feeds them a pale, yellow liquid "milk" from her brood sack.
But the craziest thing: Cut open an embryonic beetle roach, and their guts will spill out nutrient-rich milk crystals that shimmer like glitter. [...]
[Professor] Stay also found that she could extract the roach milk — in either liquid or crystal form — through a process she calls "milking a cockroach."
"You substitute a filter paper in the brood sac for the embryos and you leave it there," she explains. After a while, "you take it out and you get the milk."
So apparently it's some substance produced inside the cockroach which you can get at without crushing the rest of the cockroach.
Of course now you actually have to milk each individual cockroach individually one by one, each individual once at a time.

All you have to do is make an oxygen rich environment where they can grow to Carboniferous sizes, and then just milk a few of them for the daily needs!
And to get there, we need to dig up all of the bound CO2 so that our friends the plants can turn it into oxygen.

@Bulb there's a bunch of other animals that would be suitable, mostly for this here thread:
