Adventures in eating.
Every once in a while, I see some food that catches my attention. Usually it’s something kind of gross, kind of intriguing. I’m often overcome with a desire to know what the food tastes like, but a repulsion at the thought of actually eating it.
So, here is the result, recorded for posterity, and so that you, too, can know what I know without having to subject yourself to eating something weird. I present “Adventures in eating.”

Hey – what about the oysters?
Mushy peas is a UK dish – I believe they were originally made using dried peas whereby in the re-hydrating and cooking process they became …. well, mushy.
Fascinating, or what? yeah just or what . . . .
I’ve always been curious about the Mong Lee Shang drink stuff and now I know. Thank you. Thank you indeed!
Thanks for trying all these different things! Love reading about it
Thank you for doing this! I have been curious about so many of these products but not nearly as adventurous as you!
(Also, jeez aren’t you cute.)
Please try Surströmming !!!! :))
I’ll be back for seconds!
I’ve tried peanut soup before. I can’t remember if it was in milk or sugary water, though. I just remember it tasting kinda sweet and it really wasnt that bad overall. Coconut juice isn’t nasty at all, but I recommend coconut water instead (it’s not as sweet but it’s not packed with as much sugar and calories as well). The pearl soybean drink reminds me of boba milktea so I imagine it would taste similar. The preserved duck egg is also called a “century egg” (never tried it, though).
Haha, it’s not a surprise that most of these food items were bought from an Asian supermarket!
