OT -- The "Choose One For The Rest Of Your Life" Thread

I've eaten a lot of odd stuff, but have never had the opportunity to have mountain oysters. 

So I guess I'll say cheek meat by default, but I'd probably pick it anyway.

lamb fries???

I've tried them. They were unobjectionable. But also not really memorable. It was just a deep fried piece of meat.

Once the novelty of trying them once is gone, no point in eating them again.

that's how I feel - I've had them more than a dozen times - because I've been with people that seek them out and enjoy them
kinda like liver & onions - I don't seek them out and usually order something else if there's an option

My novelty days are done.  Too old for that...."Aww c'mon, just try it" trick.

Had a guy I work with cook up some "chitlins", and offered to bring some for me to try --- I emphatically declined, which he thought was funny, and just kept badgering me.  Once upon a time I would have caved -- no more.  

As long as restaurants and grocery stores remain solvent --- no point in eating nasty shit.

chitlins are one of the few things I won't eat

but, if there are a few of them in some oriental soup - I won't pick em out

Ribs, for a similar (but not the same) reason as my choice for Italian food. I don't have enough brisket in my life that I would miss it all that much. I would miss the ribs. I've had good brisket that was amazing, but it's just not ever present (or even sometimes present) in my life. It's something to get in Austin, or Athens, or...(lots of other places I don't go very often, and which also have other great foods).
