This was me when I visited China. I still eat thousand year old eggs (most people are scared of them). Haven't had tripe since I was there since there aren't too many places that serve good BBQ lamb tripe here in the U.S. 😉 When I was there, I had just a little trouble getting people to try the tripe, but when I did they almost always liked it.

Nowadays there aren't a whole lot of things I eat that others don't, but my friends and coworkers do look at me funny when I eat with chopsticks. I don't get it; I've been eating with chopsticks since I was a little kid and I always eat Chinese food with them, but I seem to get more weird looks now than I did 10+ years ago!

That is one of the most disgusting foods I've ever seen.

Several food safety issues have been raised with casu marzu:

Anecdotal reports of allergic reactions.
A risk of the decomposition advancing to a toxic state. (Folk wisdom in Sardinia holds that the presence of still-living larvae is an assurance that this has not yet happened.)
Risk of enteric myiasis: intestinal larval infection. Piophila casei larvae can pass through the stomach alive (human stomach acids do not usually kill them) and take up residency for some period of time in the intestines, where they can cause serious lesions as they attempt to bore through the intestinal walls. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and bloody diarrhea.
