Baba ghanoush is an India eggplant dip and is absolutely delicious :D

14. Aloo gobi (what is it?)
It's a kind of Indian vegetable curry.

Epoisses is a cheese that smells so badly that it's forbidden on trains and in public buildings. It's really quite stunning.

Louche absinthe is just absinthe drunk with water and a bit of sugar. It's quite a ritual to mix it.

I really, really want to know what Kaolin is supposed to be.

I didn't realize you kept kosher! (Which, year, rather limits the number of things on this list you could eat... Wait, are frogs kosher?)

caviar d'aubergine

I didn't realize you said "caviar" about these veggie things in French -- that's what you do in Russian, too. I'm not sure baba ghanoush is the exact same thing (it all tastes like eggplant to me...), but certainly similar.

L'Epoisses est un fromage de Bourgogne. On le mange frais (pas trop de goût) ou bien fait (ça pue pas tant que ça, on est loin du muster).

Le kaolin c'est de l'argile (verte ou blanche, je ne sais plus). Comme ce n'est pas très bon, c'est en général mis dans des compléments alimentaires, mais on en trouve en sachet.

I've eaten a large percentage of that list. And most of it was delicious ;).

PB&J and oysters (not together!) are two of my favorite things, so I'm stunned to see both crossed off.

[catrionamacnair.livejournal.com]

Ooh, you have Caviar d'aubergine as well? I know the russian version, it's great.

You've never eaten black pudding? That was one of my favorites growing up; still is, though finding good black pudding here in the U.S. is difficult. It's yummy; at least the Caribbean version. :D

27. Dulce de leche ----> Why not? It's delicious. Unless you don't like sweet things.
Also: it amuses the hell out of me that it's considered somewhat exotic.
