Top 5 Gross Food Photos

There is a fascination with disgusting foods, maybe because what is disgusting to one might be a delicacy to another. Since stock photography sites are a wealth of food imagery, we did some searching and found 5 foods that make us turn green (with nausea, not envy). More than just a way to gross ourselves out, this is an opportunity to face our culinary fears and venture into some uncharted territory.

Though we are a long way from trying these foods, getting familiar with them may help us get the hunger for experimentation. That doesn't guarantee that we won't just close our eyes and hold our breath when we finally try them. Baby steps, friends. Baby steps.

  • Mealworms - Nothing that ends in "worms" can be good. Unless it begins with "gummi". In which case, it is awesome.
  • Cow tongue - Umm. It's a tongue. I would rather just make out with a cow.

  • Fried crickets - Usually frying something makes it edible, but the thought of getting a cricket leg stuck between your teeth is enough to keep this gross.

  • Pig's feet - Pigs have some good things to offer. Their feet is not one of them.
  • Balut - It's a duck egg with a nearly developed duck embryo that is boiled alive and eaten. The only word in that sentence that isn't disgusting is "egg". 
So maybe we are farther away from trying these than when we started, but it was a good start.

What is the grossest food you have ever tried or wanted to try?

    7. I don't think that is gross because there are people in the world who use to eat that, actually I like to eat worms at mornings because it has excellent proteins.
