I tried it in high school. My parents eat it about twice a year. They brought it home and I tried some. It wasn't that bad. It was peer pressure but from my parents. LOL<br /> As for the duck's blood, my parents made it into a pie that you could slice. There was a phase in my life that my mom said I liked it. Looking back, I can't believe I did. I have a bad gag reflex now so I know I couldn't stomach it now.</p> <p>@chibee: I don't know how to describe it. I feel bad admitting that I've tried it. Like I said above, it was peer pressure from my parents. </p> <p>@bree72: I have tried durian and it's not that bad if you hold your nose. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/try-any-delicassies#post-199588 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 15:56:12 +0000 LuLu Mom 199588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh this post made me a little nauseous...I consider myself adventurous until I read this! haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/try-any-delicassies#post-199532 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 15:07:00 +0000 BananaPancakes 199532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I am not food adventurous at all. I have a super sensitive gag reflex and just the thought of most of this stuff is terrifying to me. That said, I have this strange desire to try durian. I think it's the fact that it supposed to me so nasty that has me intrigued. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/try-any-delicassies#post-199240 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 11:40:08 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 199240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love escargot!
