Shocking culinary tastes

I'm sure that some of my preferences are indeed shocking but I suspect that preferences tend to be regional; what is typical in my location is possibly outlandish in another region or climate. Some regional preferences may be based upon availability of ingredients or ethnic backgrounds. In an area with very little Polish influence, kluski and pierogies might seem quite alien. Here around Buffalo, these foods are as common as Wonder bread and Heinz ketchup.

A good example would be British cuisine. I'm no fan of blood sausage but it's regularly eaten in England. I find them rather disgusting even though I'm descended from the Brits. Likewise, I've also got German blood and I detest sauerkraut. I cannot fathom people who put sauerkraut on other foods such as hotdogs or sandwiches.

I guess some may be shocked by my fondness for Tabasco sauce. I look for excuses to put it on as many foods as possible - eggs, chicken, Italian sausage, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, clam chowder - whatever doesn't completely clash with the heat. Some people have weak stomachs.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I can keep it down just fine. It's the taste that makes me cringe. Take everything that is good about cabbage, which isn't much, take those parts away and steep the remains in a horrid brine until it barely resembles its original form.

Oh yeah, delish.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
