There seems to be a lot of foods like that, aren't there? Who ever got the
idea to eat oysters- raw? They don't even look like food to me, they look
like rocks. But otters eat them, sooo...

While I was in Ashland, my sweetie took me down to his favorite sushi
place. Mind you, the only time I've had sushi was at church potlucks in
Hawaii, made by someone's mom or auntie at home. Never in a restaurant. We
were sitting at the bar, and right in front of me was a case of...
things... Raw things. Things I don't associate with food. Things with
tentacles.  And I couldn't bring myself to eat the sushi with raw tuna
(that was ok- more for him!), thought the vegetable fillings were good. And
the szechwan green beans were really yummy. But I have to admit the culture
shock was a little much.

In turn though, I'm told that people all over the world find the American
peanut butter to be incalculably gross. To eat his own...
