100 Foods to Eat Before You Die

So this is the list from the Food List Challenge that's currently floating around on Facebook. I don't do Facebook apps and thought that, if there were others who were similarly geared, they might also appreciate an app-free list so that they could participate with these meme.


I've had 88 of the 100 foods listed and was a bit surprised to find that, in my part of the world, many on the list are quite common. The Food List Challenge folks said that they “think most people will have tried fewer than 20 of these 100 foods to eat before you die.” I'm pretty sure that would have been more true a couple of decades ago and, clearly, vegetarians won't score as well as those with more omnivracious tastes.
