As in those licorice-like candies? I love licorice, but that sounds disgusting, I have tried quinoa. Once. Once was enough for me to decide I do NOT like it, no matter how healthy it's supposed to be. And I've had tofu in some Oriental restaurants. When prepared certain ways, it actually has a custard-like taste and consistency. <br /><br />I'm happy to have never eaten is bull testicles, head cheese, brains, or chicken feet .Or (gag) a live octopus.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-6650930904743385232015-11-06T23:01:11.895+00:002015-11-06T23:01:11.895+00:00I have grandchildren who think McDonalds is ambros...I have grandchildren who think McDonalds is ambrosia and so...I have eaten at McDonalds, and, I have eaten kinder eggs.
