And there are anarchists as well...
...What's the worst thing you've ever eaten? -George Brozowski, San FranciscoFermented shark in Iceland. They celebrate their hardy Viking roots by eating shark that has essentially rotted and is then marinated in lactic acid for six months. There was also the warthog rectum in Namibia.
