Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason
Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 1 week agoI’m knocking on the door of 60. There’s three things I don’t like and one I wouldn’t try.
I don’t like broad beans (aka fava beans), Brussels sprouts, or peas. One of the best things about being an adult is being able to say ‘No, thanks’. I try them again every few years, just to check. With peas and sprouts I still hate the taste horribly. Broad beans can taste alright but have to be properly prepared and cooked and it’s just easier to say no because when they’re not right they’re the thing I dislike the most.
The one thing I wouldn’t try would be [balut](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balut_(food). The idea just makes my skin crawl for some reason.

I had balut in the Philippines when I visited around 2008.
Not my favorite thing to eat, but I could see how some people like it.
If you ever get to the Philippines give it a try! Ask for the “young” balut so it’s more like an egg and less like a baby duck.

No thanks!
