• 50 Foods To Eat Before You Die

  A couple of years ago, I saw a BBC program featuring the 50 Things To Eat Before You Die as voted by their viewers. I thought it was a great idea and I saved the list, glancing back at it when it crossed my mind and crossing off new things. It doesn't necessarily feature the most unusual foods (though some are definitely unusual!), but many foods which simply everyone should try (pizza, sushi, etc.).
  
  The other day I saw it again and after another cross-out or two, I realized I'm only a little more than halfway through. I definitely need to step up my game; although, I'm sure there are some I can just never eat, I mean, guinea pig?!
