Ok, I’m going to have to make a serious effort to look up everything on this list and do a blog post about it. There are a lot that I would try, but there aren’t a lot that I would go out of my way to cross of the list. So, in theory, if my survival depended on it, roadkill would be acceptable. It would save me a step. But, if I live my whole life never having to eat roadkill, I won’t feel as though I missed out on anything.

My life would be so much easier if I didn’t like fizzy beverages. I’d at least have more of my teeth left. I’ve had the ice cream float and I’d have it again, but I really like my ice cream better without mixing it with soda. And, my soda is much better mixed with other things that give it a little kick

I just don’t like soda. Anything with fizz. Beer itself was a big effort and still… I’ve had root beer and don’t like it, so I wouldn’t ruin perfectly good ice cream by dropping it in root beer. I’m aware that I stand in the minority on this…

I’m with you on the deadly foods and organs meats. And road kill? I can’t believe they’ve got that on the list. There’s quite a few I’ll have to look up and still probably won’t try, but there are also several that I love! So I’ll count myself as a bad omnivore since there’s no way I’d try all 100. Ick.

What Jenifer said. It really doesn’t deserve to be lumped in with all the rest. I mean what could an innocent (and delicious) little root beer float have done to be crossed out?

Okay, you must share why you’ve crossed off root beer float. Such an innocent food, not to mention delicious.
