I've eaten many of the dishes on this list, including their #1 (hákarl), but none of the things on this list compare to the worst thing I've ever eaten: mopane worm. https://lodges.safari.co.za/African_Travel_Articles-travel/mopane-worms.html https://lodges.safari.co.za/African_Travel_Articles-travel/m... When I bit down into my first mopane worm, the flavor made me realize two things immediately: A) It tastes exactly how it looks, which is like a fried caterpillar, and B) That terrible apple I once ate as a child actually contained a caterpillar, and that is how I knew the flavor. Ugh. But forget the taste. The real focus of your attention will be on the textures: The chitinous shell reminiscent of finger nail clippings, the spongy "meat", and the gritty intestinal tract filled with fine sand, It's a real roller coaster. An order of mopane worms is an entire bowl. I ate three of worms before I had to give up, which honestly took everything I had. I still feel a little ill thinking of them today.
