VGT Omnivore's Hundred: My Turn!

I've been wanting to do the VGT Omnivore's Hundred list for a while ... but I cheated and waited until AFTER I ate bugs! So here goes:

Here’s what I want you to do:

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4) Optional extra: Post a comment here at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.
