Of course not all of us will eat random things....
some of us have intelligence enough to associate that really bad smelling/ off tasting thing with the stomach cramps, intestinal distress and resulting dual action purge....
I smell everything I eat or drink...
And then well I might spit it if it tastes off too.

hehe. see now all the guys i know stuff their faces, wait until swallowing then asking if it really was safe to eat that.
or give me a critique on the possibility of each item they ate being edible during the meal. like crawdads. "here wendy eat this..." "uhhh" "ok i'll eat it... um ok that one was not fully cooked try this one"
...
"overcooked"
...
"eh i think that one was dead before they grabbed it"
...
"oh that was a great one you shoulda tried that one"
Caution in eating things is well recomended. On the other hand, is something to be said for an unbias opinion:
"Here, eat this, tell me what you think, and then I'll tell you what it is."
"....okay.... *munch* Oooo, yum, taht was pretty good. What was it?"
"Bacon wrapped prune."
"....but, I hate prunes?!"
"Exactly why I made you eat it first. Now enjoy another."
"May you get what you deserve."

kinda hard to pull that when they're sitting on a plate in front of you just staring at you.
i refuse to eat a mud bug. yeah its like a wild flavored mini lobster.... but they never served me a lobster with its head and all bits still attached so it could stare at me before i ate it.

I've had lobster served like that. It happens. Its still food. We are still the top of the food chain. Its not like it was a rotisterie puppy or something.

That bit was just loaded with great lines.
"Want some SQUASH?!"
"SHIT NO! Sounds like someone sat on dinner."
"What is it?"
"I don't know. Could be meat. Could be cake. It's MEATCAKE!"
"It's still good. Someone is saving it." Meanwhile it has gotten smaller and smaller and is, in fact, stuck to the rack.
but its lookin at me just before i eat it. entirely different if it looked at me before i cooked it.
Personally I like my animal protein to be in a fairly unrecognizable state when I eat it. No fishheads or tails, nothing with eyes looking back at me. It's not that I won't eat it, but I certainly prefer it the other way.
Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with ketchup!

"They called me fussy. 'He's fussy! He's a fussy eater.' Fussy eater is a euphemism for big pain in the ass. Cause if I didn't like my food, I said so. I didn't pick at my food. Play with my food. I said 'I don't like that, ma. Did you make this? I don't like it.'
'Why?'
They wanted reasons! 'I don't know. I know I don't like it. And I know if I ate it, I would like it even less. You like it? You eat it.'
Cause some foods just don't look right! 'This don't look right, ma. Did you make that? Is there a picture of it in the cookbook? I'll bet it don't look like that.' I don't eat anything I can't identify right away. If I have to ask questions, fuck it! I pass."
As for bad food in my own life, I've never known anyone who would pass off fowl garbage to someone else expecting them to eat it (shame on you, Jennie).
But we do play that game of: "EWWW! This tastes awful! Here, try it!"
I don't know what it is, but it seems we need to validate our experience by having others taste the bile.
