Eh, as a Korean I've eaten Hongeo hoe ("raw skate") - while it has a distinct flavor of ammonia, it's nothing to write home about. (I dunno, maybe the authentic ones sold at the region may have stronger taste.) There are stuff I'd be much more reluctant to try, like boiled silkworm pupae[1].
Maybe it helps that I never licked a urinal, so I have no idea what a urinal tastes like.

- greenonions 5y agoI've tried the silkworm. It's... not very good. Monggae bibimbap had a lot of ammonia, but there were some pleasing elements. I can't remember if I've tried hongeo hoe, but I can imagine it could have some appeal. Of course, all of these things are insane to the average Midwestern US person that I might encounter.
