Fifty Things to Eat Before You Die

Was sent the BBC's list of 50 things to eat before you die - seems like not that new a list, but anyway it was fun to look through it (even some choices were really boring - I love pizza and burgers, but they seem so ubiquitous that to put them on a "things to eat before you die" list seems odd)... so, italicising what I haven't had, it looks like 46 down, 4 to go...

I'm not sure listing whole cuisines (Thai food, Chinese food, Mexican food etc) count as _a thing_ - I mean, there are tons of "things" to eat within that one item alone......

Dude...you've had haggis?!

Agreed - but well, that's how the public voted. And yes, I had haggis in Scotland, back when I was 14 or so...
