A few foods come to mind.

Lima beans, something few people I know really enjoy. (Sort of like tequila, for me, "food" though it isn't, really.)

Spicy eggplant Szechuan Chinese dish, one of my favorites.

Tofu, with a texture and bland taste that many can't accept, though like eggs it can be a great "base" for any number of wonderfully spiced and dressed-up dishes.

Soy milk instead of plain cow's milk, which chokes most of my friends but which over the past 15 years has turned out to be my choice over plain milk (go figure), whether poured over cereal or as a drink from a glass, though it doesn't seem to work well as a "cooking" milk since it won't thicken in the same way.

Yum.. but I'll prefer some sauce with it. Or throw it into soup.

Another thumbs up. I take it as a drink though. Have never thought of using it to replace cow's milk for cereal.. can't fathom how it'll taste. Must try.

Seeing your likes, I'd recommend you get your hands on a bowl of tow huey (dou hua) if you can. Great dish.

Had fried frog leg for the first time tonight at a Chinese restaurant. It was pretty good actually. Flaky, like fish, but milder and less, well, fishy. I'd eat it again.

Pig blood cake or Pig blood pudding(豬血糕)
Dont know how to describe it, there's nothing i know taste like it. Actually yes, goose blood cake.
I pretty much eat every organ of pigs or cows, so another my favorite is crispy pig colon.

A food that I love Is BBQ pickled eggs. A good friend of mine has family that live in Kentucky and they make them all the time. He went down to visit and brought some back years ago. I've been making them ever since. I also like to make a bologna, peanut butter, and mayonnaise sandwich.

My boss from years ago used to make them, he was always trying to get me to try one. I was in the same boat you are, nearly turned my stomach just thinking about it.....then......I tried one. Honestly it was really good. It does sound disgusting but for some reason when you put them all together it's good.
