Conch-anything is not a personal favorite. It may be that I've only had it in tropical resort places where it wasn't handled or prepared very well. I had barnacles in Galicia on the Spanish coast north of Portugal last October that weren't my thing. Pretty much any other shellfish is fair game.

Women with food issues doesn't work well with me.

Seriously? Would not be an issue.

Of course, I was married to a ridiculously picky eater for a very long time, so I appreciate a sense of culinary adventure.

Nah. Not something that would bother me one bit.

Depends on how adventurous. I wouldn't care at all if someone ate ostrich or alligator or whatever, but then also I don't think I'd want to watch him eat a cockroach or swallow a live goldfish.

There's nothing strange or exotic about rattlesnake. It tastes kind of like chicken actually.

Depends on how often they eat it. Better than a vegan or gluten free dining partner.

If you're a woman, please say whether or not this would turn you off, and note where you are from/where you live.

Thanks
Why??? Did it taste bad? Was the rattlesnake a dearest pet to your close friend?
I love ALL kinds of food deemed fit for human consumption. I am actually turned off by picky eaters ...

BTW: I don't live on a farm, and why it has anything to do with eating rattlesnake?
Following this mentality - only forest people or hunters should be allowed to eat boar or venison, or only fishers to eat fish, and city people shouldn't eat pork or beef or even chickens ...

NOTE: why you posted it in Relationship forum?

Was watching various food shows and the hosts go around and try various things. I don't know, some of the stuff was just horrendous looking. Some Japanese dish is a certain fish or whatever and if it isn't prepared right you can die eating it. I really draw the line there. I'll try most things at least once, but some of the various Asian cultures can get a little too out there for me. LOL.

I don't see why this would be a problem in terms of dating, especially if it's just once in a while. I can see if you had a cage full of hamsters and that was your week meal plan, I could imagine that grossing someone out.

Trying rattlesnake sausage on the occasion, sure, whatever. LOL

I spent most of my life eating what's raised and grown on an American farm or ranch. I don't have an adventurous palate but I don't mind if my date does. However, if it tastes or smells bad to me, I might not want to kiss him afterwards. Just saying.

Of course, Ive tried conch. You couldn't imagine the things Ive tried.

I remember, as a boy going into the suger cane/ mango fields with my best freind (who's cauasian) to catch these huge roach-like bugs. We'd catch as many as we can, and put them in a jar to eat.

Ho' brah! theyre brok da mouth so gooey sweet and crunchy. Better than any manufactured candy you can eat

As for rattlesnake, reindeer/elk being adventurous? Lmao. Try eating goat skin/intestines/organs in a soup. We call it bitter-soup because they drain that funky green bile sack (looks like a sack of green puss) from the goat into the soup. The smell of the bile alone will make you gag 50 feet away, LOl. But its ono' delicious.
