@DavidPD - I agree with you. This guy just doesn't have the spark a person needs when on TV. I won't be watching but for those who will, enjoy!

I lied a little in the first round from October 2009.

Paris is from the first episode of Anthony Bourdain No Reservations. I've never been to Paris, France but will visit someday.

The number 22 is still my favourite number. I was born in 1966.

Ciao

Very nice article and recipe! :-)

I don't eat pork and when looking at it raw, it looks horribly ugly and unappetizing.

It looks good once it's cooked but I still couldn't eat it.

I don't live in LA or NYC. This website seems to post about food eaten by people in those locations only.

Thanks for sharing your story.

I found out about Bourdain when I was at the library and found Kitchen Confidential.

I like his writing and own many of his books. I didn't watch the Food Network back when A Cook's Tour aired.

My favourite episodes of No Reservation were the episodes filmed before he got married. Vegas. Paris. Singapore. Seattle. Portland. Quebec. Vietnam. Mexico/Texas. Singapore. Japan. Iceland.

I have not eaten:

Cactus
Limburger cheese
Chicken Mole
Cat fish
Gazpacho
Duck
Polenta
Yorkshire pudding
Chicken fried steak
Johnnycakes
Coq au vin
Beef bourguignon

That's it for now!

Although I like garbonzo beans, I haven't eaten hummus yet. Roasted red pepper and eggplant sound good.

Whoppers were and still are on my "yuck" list.

I don't like the texture of them. Think of them as chocolate covered hair balls mixed with cat litter.

Good luck Ed! :)

LAUGH!! I loved it! Omygosh..this is so cute!

Yum! Spice and Lemon Cookies? I would Love these!

As an adult, I eat healthy most of the time. Just depends on what I'm craving. I don't buy organic but buy food with low sugar and low sodium.

If I want salt, I buy chips.

If I want sugar, I buy Haribo Gummi Bears or a chocolate bar.

As a kid, I hated seafood (prawns, shrimp, crab, lobster, oysters, clams, crawfish) - still do), spaghetti, pot roast, asparagus, cabbage, liver - yuck, rabbit - yuck, meatloaf, and pears.

I DID like TV dinners, mac & cheese, fish sticks and French fries, chicken pot pies, A&W hamburgers and root beer, veal, fried chicken, mayonaisse sandwiches, fried zucchini, Italian deli and tator tots.

I don't eat like that anymore.

Hello, I'm Liz.

I live in Washington State. My first real job in the restaurant business was a dishwasher in a small family owned cafe/diner. The cook quit and the boss/owner decided to teach me how to be the new cook. He was like a dad. (My parents didn't teach me how to cook).

I am a legal secretary and mom to a 13-year-old son.

My dad is Italian (southern Italy) and my mom is from Pennsylvania.

The screen name paris221966 comes from "Paris is Romantic!" "The number 22 is my favourite number." "The year I was born was 1966."
