Clearly, I'm not an omnivore.

I got this list from Last Night's Dinner. I feel like a lightweight of eating, but, some shit on the list is straight up revolting.


The Rules:

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating. (I put an X)
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.
