• Below is a list of 100 things that I think eVery good omnivore should have tried at least once in their life. The list includes fine food, strange food, everyday food and even some pretty bad food – but a good omnivore should really try it all. Don’t worry if you haven’t, mind you; neither have I, though I’ll be sure to work on it. Don’t worry if you don’t recognise everything in the hundred, either; Wikipedia has the answers.
  • Here’s what I want you to do:
    • Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
    • Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
    • Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
