the omnivore's hundred
It's a list of 100 foods every omnivore should try at least once, from PB&J to Durian.
My latest addition was Paneer, which I ate in an Indian dish called Something Paneer. It was gross (just the Paneer, not the spinach-- that was delicious.) Yes, I've sworn off Indian food three times, but I've since opened up my naan-mango lassi diet to include spinach-based dishes that can be made extra mild.
By my count, I've eaten at least 56 list items, which-- given the amount of traveling I've done and my penchant for ordering the thing I've never heard of on the menu-- means that the list is overly ambitious. I doubt I'd ever be able to finish the hundred, even by trying.

I'll have to make you palak paneer sometime. Krestia loves it, because it combines two of his favorite food groups: fried things and cheesy things. It is essentially fried cheese in a spicy spinach sauce.
You're doing better than me--at a rough count I've had 35 or 36 items from that list. One of them, though is roadkill moose. I'm particularly proud of that one. :)
Yeah, I bet it would be pretty good with normal cheese. The paneer in question was more like... tofu, but sticky. Do you use that?
I've had 74 of them!!!! Leave it to me to have tried a zillion weird foods!!! Some of them are just foods renowned for their deliciousness or cultural distinction. It's definitely an interesting mix. I absolutely love food, and I will try ANYTHING!!!!!
