Plus 1: a balut  Try it IF YOU DARE!>>
 
I underlined the things I wouldn't eat on a bet because I don't know how to 
do a strikethrough.  Most of the things on the "Not eat on a bet list" are 
there because I already know I don't like the main flavor or a major ingredient.  
I hate chocolate and anything very bitter or very spicy/hot.
