I used to eat raw asparagus out of my parents' garden when I was a toddler.  Liked the stuff ever since.  

Prunes are good too.

Those really floppy rice noodles usually served when you eat "Dim Sum".  Inside them is either shredded pork or shrimp and they serve a sweetened soy sauce with them.

THAT'S good eating.

I do like split-pea soup too.  My step mother makes it with the remainants of a ham bone.  Lots of big chunks of fatty ham in it...mmmmmm
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain

I love the taste of fried squierl "tastes just like chicken" with a strange twist of nuts.
I like boiled Tounge from Ox with mushed potatoes and mustard sauce.
The "blacksoup" made out of the blood of pig, liver of goose, its nice.
Pickled herring is a favourite as well as "baried salmon" (salted and sugared salomon files left over night in the cooler).

Nothing beats a boiled codfishhead with butter.
Esquarcouts with Garlicbutter.
Kalamari with French fries.
Octopusy with a twist of lemon.

Oysters au Naturel.

My list would get much longer, but I have to get something to eat, suddenly I got hungry.
