The Omnivore's Hundred is a list of 100 items that Andrew Wheeler, co-author of the British food blog Very Good Taste, thinks every omnivore should try at least once in his life.
He offered this list as the starting point for a game, along with these 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've italicized).
