You know, it all depends on where you come from... Most Americans I've met looked horrified when I ate
salty liquorice. They'd spit it out after one taste (especially the double salted versions!) But it's yummie!
And what about our
soused herring? (The Dutch variety, naturally, not the cooked one)
Outside our native cuisine or western cuisine, I can't remember eating something that would be called weird...
