I'm in my 50s and I've never eaten...

Tiramisu.

I'm about to try some.
I know I'm not going to like it, but hey ho! 😅

Anything you've yet to try?

I'll try anything! Fermented shark, snails, camel, brain, crocodile, chicken feet, duck feet, jellyfish, pigs ear to name a few.

I'd like to try BBQ'd witchetty grubs.

I haven't tried casu martzu https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_martzu nor
Balut https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balut_(food) but I'm not convinced I'd really want to eat them!

Yes it was made.in a dish was lovely on toast

Balut. And I never plan to

Oysters
Cheese

I'm in my 60s

Wow did not know this! have to do a food shop tomorrow and am going to look out for this as it sounds like my idea of heaven.

I like coffee, but could take or leave tiramisù. Also, I like raisins, but only on their own, never "plumped up" in desserts. Or chocolate mixed with other flavors, I prefer to have it on its own.

I have not tried:

Snails
Frog Legs
Oysters

I am sure they are more.

Never eaten chicken nugget, Pot Noodle, or a kebab from a kebab shop.

Love snails, caviare, oysters if they’re cooked. Tried frogs legs - they weren’t very exciting. Tried offal but I don’t like it, draw the line at brains and tripe.

Andouille
Brains

Don't like matcha or salted caramel flavoured anything.

In my 50s and never eaten tripe , tongue or heart. This is not likely to change.
I ate oysters once and got terrible food poisoning from them( sister did too and we had them together) so that’s not to be repeated.

I would like tiramisu if it didn’t have mascarpone in it. I’ve made it with English custard instead and it was good.

A McDonald’s.

I have eaten McDonald’s but not since 1989.

Crubeens aren't a delicacy. They were cheap peasant food. I don't know any Irish person under the age of 75 who has eaten them. I think there are some touristy places that sell them.

Wow! Not done that.

But, as every day's a schoolday on Mumsnet, I just learned this from a moderately reliable source: "Brains aren't the easiest of ingredients to source in the UK. The brains from calves (cows under 12 months old), lambs (sheep under 12 months old) and pigs have been approved for consumption by the Foods Standards Agency, but the sale of cows’ and sheeps' brains (from animals more than one year old) is banned in the UK."

I'll ask my local and completely fab farm shop.

48 and only tried mussels this week - won't be doing that again

Thanks everyone who explained what white pudding is.
Another pass from me then.

Love fish and seafood when we are on holiday, as then it’s guaranteed they’re proper fresh.
We got a huge amount of monkfish and lobsters for not much money when we went to Newlyn Fish Market just before closing time, much to the horror of my American BIL 😅

I'm in my 60s and I've never eaten tiramisu! Or most of the things on this thread. I was brought up with the most conservative of meals, meat and two veg, and the veg seldom varied. I was definitely into my 20s before sampling Chinese or Indian food (which was hard to get when I was growing up) and I think I've just never been adventurous with eating. I'm a very old-fashioned 'plain' eater - my adult children tease me about it. But I like plain, unadventurous food, and a meat and two veg (or three veg more often) dinner is my favourite meal.

I never ate taramasalata until I was in my 60s, the colour put me off for a start. Then I had some - well I have wasted so many years not eating it!

Durian fruit, jellied eels, fried egg and Nando’s.

Over 60. Have eaten brains, cod roe, heart, tripe, liver, horse meat. But never had eels or snails - and never will.

I had it at my dds recently it's delicious I don't know why I hadn't tried it before.

Globe artichokes are delicious. I will never knowingly eat Jerusalem artichokes again: they do not agree with me!

Never had ostrich or alligator.

Curry of any sort and shellfish
