I sourced that from the attached links. Some of those foods I personally don't find disgusting at all and gladly tuck into the black pudding, jellied eels and mushy peas

And feel free to add other 'disgusting' foods from other countries...

Foreigners are unsure of what grits actually are.

Cornmeal, use to eat the shit in the box "Creme of Wheat" as a kid, later living in the South had the real stuff, don't usually eat it but I'll put syrup in it.

Many foreigners don’t get the appeal of peanut butter … much less in combination with jelly.

Peanut butter and jelly is a staple for every American kid.

To foreigners biscuits are meant to be sweet — and definitely not served with gravy.

Butter milk biscuits, they're made with flour and not sweet, sausage with gravy over the biscuits it's a heavy breakfast, they can make you faaaaaaaat...

Cheese? More like “Cheese.”

We ate that shit as kids, any adult should be flogged eating it. And for the record us Americans can get good fucking cheese beyond the process grocery store crap.


Root beer has an unusual flavour most foreigners just can’t place.

Once again drank as kids - root beer floats, only time I drink cola now is mixing it in whiskey.

Many foreigners are wary of corn dogs.

Carnival food for the most part, something you can eat while walking around, hotdog wrapped in cornbread, sometimes deepfriend.

Twinkies taste stale to foreigners.

Just a cake with creme in it, all the processed grocery store pastries are shit.

Many foreigners maintain that Hershey’s tastes faintly like vomit.

Does taste waxy to me, with a jar of Peanut butter not bad.

Boxed macaroni and cheese is thought to be totally disgusting.

Kid or broke college kid food, ok in a pinch for a side.

Beyond the grits and biscuits this is all kid food, why do people think all Americans eat like this? Ridiculous

Now to disgusting British foods..

Mince pies

Eh don't look bad to me

Spotted Dick

No fkn clue on this one

Black pudding

Like a blood sausage? If so many countries have it, I like it but in small quantities.

Mushy peas

Love my greens so I'd eat it, doesn't look pretty.

Stargazy pie

Yeah, no.

Scotch eggs

Looks like something good for breakfast

Digestive biscuits

Can you drink beer with it?

Jellied eels

I like eel I'd give it a shot

Haggis

Always wanted to try this, I like tripe when cooked, hate it when it's in a soup like Menudo

One of the worst food I've ate is called Shiokara, raw squid in pulverized guts fermented, a taste that stays with you for several days, the Japanese love to drink beer with it.

Also chicken feet.

That Swedish Surströmming looks pretty interesting.

Stargazy pie

Here’s a great way to ruin a pie, let’s just stick a few fish heads in the pastry for an extra decorative touch.

I love the way you eluded to defend it.

In France, this pie would need a lawyer.
