This looks like the most normal item on the list, right?
Think again.
Of all the items on this list, this is the one that really makes you wonder… — yes, of all the things on this list, this is the one — who in the world decided that this would be okay to eat? It’s FERMENTED fish. And it’s not fermented in the way that kimchi is fermented. It has actually gone bad (not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good, you know). It gives off that telltale red flag of a smell that screams “don’t eat me you’ll die.” It smells the part, and it gives your mouth a tingly sensation, which, after you eat it, makes you think, “Oh, this is what rotten food probably tastes like. Now I know.”
