What iconic or popular foods have you never tried, even when available to you? A lot of people seem to be surprised that I’ve never tried certain foods that are supposed to be a common experience, especially for baby boomers.
I’ve never had:
Pop-Tarts
Hostess Twinkies or Hostess anything
McDonald’s Big Mac
Deep fried candy bars (popular at county and state fairs here in America)
Grits
Also, when we were in London in 1976, I wanted to try the traditional English breakfast, but my parents insisted on ordering a continental breakfast for me instead. I’m still bummed that I missed my chance to try it, because even though a veg*an fry-up is a thing in London now, I doubt I’ll ever get back to England again.
