ventaAnother day for pointless curiosity... how are you at eating things when you don't know what they are? I made sausages at the weekend (post on the topic coming soon), and offered some pieces of cooked sausage to colleagues to see if they could guess what was in it. Both happily chomped down on mystery food without any info. I regard this as completely normal, but am aware that some people would never do it.
So... in the poll below, I'm asking about whether or not you'd eat mystery food I gave you. This is not just a meal I've cooked, this is something "mysterious" I'm inviting you to try. I'm aware some of you probably trust me, and some of you barely know me. Let's assume I'm someone you know well enough to know won't poison you, or feed you fag-ash-and-spider sausages for a laugh, but not someone whom you feel you know well enough to place special trust in.
Let's also assume that I know about your dietary requirements, so I won't give you meat if you're vegetarian, I won't feed you pork if you eat kosher, and I won't give you wheat if you're coeliac. I have perfect knowledge of your dietary requirements, even if they're quite complicated :) I don't know about your likes and dislikes, though, so won't guarantee not to feed you aubergine if you really hate it.
[Poll #1907455]
I feel there's quite enough options already, if you want to be all snowflakey, you can do it in the comments ;)

Date: 2013-04-11 09:31 am (UTC)On the plus side, this does mean I'm great for trying out experimental cuisine on because my threshold for edible is so low. Plus I get some seriously weird food combo cravings* (that usually turn out to be exactly as vile as you might suppose), so am not easy to deter.
*Not at the level of pica or anything like that, more "Oh, I wonder what marmite and ice cream tastes like. Hmmm, let's give it a try". (It does not taste very nice)
