" Is there a certain food that you can&amp;#x27;t stand? Lima beans, for instance, make my dad queasy. My husband: pickled mangoes (don&amp;#x27;t ask). So, when I ran across this--kind of hilarious--list of the world&amp;#x27;s five most disgusting foods, I wondered if you&amp;#x27;d have any of your own to add...**** We&amp;#x27;ve talked about dirty foods and weird foods here on Vitamin G, but disgusting foods? That&amp;#x27;s virgin territory. The bloggers over at the Diet Blog recently compiled a list of doozies (bonus points for any readers who have actually tried these foods!). Here are their top five: 1. Scorpian Kebabs: &amp;quot;Somewhere lurking in a Beijing night market is the scorpion kebab,&amp;quot; they write. &amp;quot;This treacherous snack is crisp on the outside and smooth in the middle and as this street vendor says, &amp;#x27;Healthy, delicious!&amp;#x27;&amp;quot; 2. Durian Fruit: Let&amp;#x27;s be blunt: It&amp;#x27;s native to Southeast Asia and apparently smells like a rotting corpse. 3. Casu Marzu Cheese: &amp;quot;Maggots in your food is bad,&amp;quot; write the Diet Blog bloggers. &amp;quot;But not if you&amp;#x27;re eating Casu Marzu, sheep&amp;#x27;s milk cheese infested with insect larva. Found mainly in Sardinia, Italy, some say it tastes like soap. You eat it by smearing it on bread, maggots and all.&amp;quot; 4. Tripe Meat: Imagine a dingy dish towel soaked in stale urine, that&amp;#x27;s how some describe the chambers of a cow&amp;#x27;s stomach--yum, right? &amp;quot;Tripe is a type of offal, the entrails and organs of butchered animals. Very popular in Italy, beef tripe is made from the first three chambers of a cow&amp;#x27;s stomach.&amp;quot; 5. Kopi Luwak Coffee: Made from brewing the undigested coffee beans found in the feces of Asian Palm Civet (a mammal that looks like a weasel). &amp;quot;The civet&amp;#x27;s stomach enzymes break down proteins in the beans giving the coffee a less bitter taste,&amp;quot; the Diet Blog writers say. Sound gross? Some people pay as much as $50 per cup! What would you add to the list? Me? Definitely pickled pigs feet. Photo: iStock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
