Answer 8

I always gross people out with this but it was a food I grew up with. My heritage is Polish and my mom learned from her mother how to make a really good beef broth.  One of the ingredients was soup bones - not the little round circles but the longer bones.

After the soup was done she'd pull out the bones and shake the marrow out onto a piece of bread, salt it and give it to us to eat.

I know, it's completely gross but it was really good.

Rose-flavored candy. (in England)

Lavender-flavored jelly.  (in the US)

Violet-flavored candies. (in Sweden)

I liked all of these very well, once I got used to them.

Answer 10

I am of Mexican heritage and my mom always fed us Menudo (don't confuse with the band), which is a soup made of tripe, hominy, and and red chili. I never knew what the strange meat in the soup was, until one day I asked my mom. She told me that tripe is the stomach lining of a cow!!! I didn't eat it again for at least a decade. Once I got older I tried it again, and now I like it, but only if my mom cooks it. If it's not made correctly, it is AWFUL!
