Meme: Omnivore's Hundred
The Omnivore's Hundred is a list of foods the gastronomic Andrew Wheeler thinks everyone should try at least once in their lives
The rules of the meme:
1) Bold all the items you've eaten
2) Strikethrough those items that you would never consider eating
2a) Italicize any item you'll never eat again
2b) * Asterisk * any items you'd be interested in trying but have not yet
