Exotic Foods You Should Never Eat!
Показать описание
You might consider yourself the adventurous eater and be willing to try some unique combinations of food, like condensed milk on bread with sprinkles, or toast drenched in ketchup, but going abroad and trying exotic foods can sometimes be dangerous and leave you feeling like death, or worse, really dead! If you’re keen to put your taste buds into overdrive, ensure you’re ordering these foods from reputable places and maybe have some antacid tablets on stand-by.

8 - Casu Marzu
Fondly referred to as maggot cheese, is exactly that… cheese with live maggots crawling around inside it. It’s a traditional dish which you can sample on the Italian island of Sardinia and it’s made from sheep’s milk cheese which is then injected with live insect larvae. The cheese is served thinly sliced on fresh bread. Chew carefully, as some larvae can cause serious lesions and even bore through your intestinal wall! Just so you know though, nobody has ever reported experiencing any of this, but it’s a real possibility.
7 - Ackee
Yes, it does rhyme a little with Yucky, and it’s a fruit native to Africa. Particularly popular in Jamaica, this fruit has to be picked at the exact right time. Anything picked too early or too late can be poisonous. If eaten at the wrong time, it will bring on the “Jamaican Vomiting Sickness,” which is exactly as the name describes. The only part you can eat when the fruit is ripe and ready, is the yellow flesh.
5 - Century Eggs
It takes 100 days to get this Chinese delicacy to its perfect state for consuming. The eggs are preserved in a mixture of salt, lime and ash for 100-days. At one stage, heavy metals were used to speed the process up, and many eggs were being sold with trace amounts of lead in them! Honest manufacturers had to label their eggs as “lead free.” These eggs are very dangerous to consume while pregnant as they can worsen water retention and you’re at risk of getting salmonella.
4 - Rhubarb
Granted, it’s not the most exotic food on our list, but if you’ve never been exposed to rhubarb, you might not realize how bad it can be for you. The dangerous part is the leaves as they contain oxalates which can cause respiratory problems and seizures.
3 - Pacha
You can get boiled sheep’s head in Africa and the Middle East, and there’s nothing outrightly dangerous about it, as long as its prepared properly. Make sure you trust the source. It’s really enjoyable when eaten in a stew with mashed chickpeas and tahini sauce.
2 - Giant bullfrog
Eating frog legs is nothing new, but in parts of Namibia, whole giant bullfrogs are consumed! Locals are aware that the frog contains enough poison to induce kidney failure but eat the frog anyway! Their pots are lined with a local wood which is said to help absorb the poison, but is it worth the risk? You’d need to chat to the locals to find out!
