A month or so ago, I saw this list on someone’s Facebook post. I don’t know where the list originated, but I copied and pasted it into a word document so that I could look at it “later” and see how I fared. Tonight seems to be “later” and I just went through and checked off all of the foods I’ve had from the list. I scored 30 out of 100. I honestly expected to score better (and no, I did not want to score 100!!)
Some of the foods I’d never heard of and some of them I’d heard of, tried and not liked. Others are definitely a regional dish. There were combo dishes I’ve had separately but never together like chicken and waffles for example.
But I’m curious…how do you fare?
Here is the list along with the ones I’ve checked off that I’ve had:
