The Erratic Ramblings of an Extraordinarily Ordinary Person 
I can comment on the escargot. It probably won’t make you gag, as the texture isn’t what you expect. Not slimey at all, actually kind of tough and more like chewing on rubber bands. Usually prepared in butter and garlic, and anything will taste good in butter and garlic, right? All that being said, I tried, I swallowed, I probably won’t do it again.
You can cross of another one (24)!
I love your list and even though mine is still in my head, we have some things in common. Good luck. 🙂
52 and 72 are the same, but I can see why…it does seem fun! 🙂
Ha! Good catch. must be on my mind, guess I ought to try it this winter.
Good catch!
