Are you ready for a challenge for your stomach? We shortlisted the top 10 awesome international meals you couldn’t imagine.
Cheese with the strongest smell
Do you think that Roquefort smells bad? If yes, one day visit French settlement Boulogne-sur-Mer and try to taste a bit of Vieux-Boulogne. As most of the blue cheeses, this one is made of unpasteurized cows milk and was ranked the smelliest cheese worldwide.
The most venomous fish
Well-known Japanese high-kitchen meal fugu is the meat of pufferfish, the most dangerous venomous fish in the world. The venom of such a remarkable fish is a thousand times tougher than famous cyanide. As a rule, only high-qualified and experienced chefs are permitted for cooking this extreme fish but a chance to suffer from the wrong extreme meal is still existing.
The most over-ambitious eating challenge
Nowadays eating challenges are a developing trend in the cooking industry. TV is full of shows of this format but let us introduce an outstanding challenge only for tough meat-fans. The English Duck Inn located in Redditch is offering guests to compete in eating steak weighing 4,2 kg that is less than an ordinary weigh of a newborn child. Furthermore, if you decided to try, there’re additional calories in potatoes and onion on the plate.
The hottest curry
The hottest curry on the planet should be in New York’s Brick Lane Curry House with a chef cooking the spicy dish wearing a gas mask. The hottest curry has an estimated 1 000 000 on the Scoville scale. 8 special Bhut Naga Jolokia chilies are used for cooking this extreme meal. By the way, they’re also used in the production of tear gas.
The most arachnophobic snack
An interesting delicacy is known in Skuon of Cambodia – fried tarantulas. Natives adore these arachnids, so the numberless tourist should also try. Dishes and baskets of these creatures are freely sold like fast food with a taste similar to chicken but we know it’s not a chicken at all… but another extreme meal.
The most adrenalizing cup of tea
Adrenaline-seekers and tea-gourmets are welcome on top of the mountain Hua Shan in China. No safety equipment needed on extreme height with rocks surrounding the mountain tea-house providing a spectacular view and a tiny cup of great Chinese tea.
The world’s most wicked garlic breath
Prepare enough toothpaste to fight a garlic breath after a visit of Garlic & Shots in London and tasting some of extreme meals. Okay, it’s impossible because every dish in this restaurant has garlic as a leading component. For example, taste exclusive garlic ice cream as a dessert, of course.
The cruelest hangover
South-East countries such as Chian and Vietnam offer an amazing experience for a hangover. Venomous wine or biting glass call as you like real snakes inside bottles with wine and rice. Don’t worry, the venom of snakes is defeated by alcohol, at least it’s supposed in South-East of the planet.
The most disgusting eggs
Chinese guys have specific tastes, you know. But what about egg boiled in… kid’s urine? Local people of Dongyang which is in the Chinese Zhejiang province enjoy this meal with a similar way of cooking like ordinary boiled eggs. Chinese think that urine and eggs are a great combination to improve female health in spring. Frankly, a bit strange medicine.
The most fattening dish
Inhabitants of Iowa State of the U.S. seem to like an extraordinarily sweet, fried butter. Enough unhealthy energy and 45 g of fat in this “tasty” one. Perhaps, if everything previously seemed to be delicious for you, have a cup of coffee with… butter.
