Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Andrew, an English food writer who co-authors a blog called Very Good Taste, creates a little list. The list is, in his words, things "every good omnivore should have tried at least once in their life." He calls it the Omnivore's Hundred and suggests readers cut and paste it to their own blogs.
Two weeks later the list has exploded into a major internet meme. Andrew has more than 500 comments on the post and the Omnivore's Hundred has 170,000 Google results to its name. Something about the idea of being able to quantify your eating experiences seems to really resonate with foodies. The list is completely subjective (I'm sure mine would have been quite different - I can't imagine not including New York pizza, tacos al pastor or key lime pie), but quite interesting nonetheless. I've tasted 73 of the 100 items. Some of the ones I haven't tried include nettle tea, fugu and currywurst (picture above).
Check out the list, after the jump, and tell me what you would include on your own Omnivore's Hundred.
