100 Foods to Try Before I Die
Today, during my daily browsing session I came across a great list and challenge posted on Facebook by a workmate (thanks Brad
) —the 100 Foods to Try Before You Die list. This is apparently also available as apps on Facebook and Google+, but since I’m not a big fan of apps on social networks, I thought I’d just add it here as a checklist I can refer to, access and check off items anytime.
As an increasingly adventurous foodie and all ‘round lover of edible things, I thought it might be great to give this challenge a go. One of the great things about Australia is that because of its diverse multiculturalism, a lof of the foods mentioned on this list are easily accessible and available locally, which means I won’t have to travel too far to try them. But then again, going abroad to try the original item does add an extra level of adventure, doesn’t it?
Of course this is by no means a definitive, nor comprehensive listing of foods one must try —I see it as more of a guide to those foods which may often be overlooked or unappreciated. Anyways, I’ve ticked off some of the stuff I’ve already tried and dated those which I remember specifically, although I’ve left some so I can make a conscious effort to try them again.
