I like you more and more. Haha. Im the same, I nearly always give foods multiple chances. I know this is practically blasphemy, but I couldn't stand escargot until recently.? Frog legs were bae, but I couldn't get over the escargot texture. I tried them again within the past couple of years and suddenly I cant get enough, lol. I got food poisoning from razor clams once. At a wine dinner.? Idk what was worse the next day, the hangover or the food poisoning. I couldn't function, and havent touched a clam since, haha. There are. And the region they come from and time of year of course changes it. I love mangoes, but I've def had slimy, nasty ones, too.
I've never actually tried razor clam, even tho i've had the opportunity before. I'm not really a seafood person, but curious enough i loved eating mussels when i was a kid. It's just that everything seems to taste the same and have the same texture lol I never had a problem with escargot or frog, i've always liked those! But it's true that if you think about the fact it's a snail, it almost kinda becomes repulsive (taste good tho so it makes up for it)
