I think food is great and there are some weird combinations and interesting dishes out there. I also love polls and opinions so; would y'all eat this food??
This is a blog where we all come together to look at different foods from around the world, small combinations and full dishes, and discuss whether or not we would eat it! It's all for fun and enjoyment, but there is a FAQ under read more that I encourage you to read!
There are two important things all should keep in mind, whether or not you want to read the full FAQ:
I absolutely love suggestions! I have ask open always, and I have created a google form as well. Please use the google form over an ask when possible. If you need to send a photo with your submission, please send through on tumblr!
I will never add any other options. Asking is futile, no matter how much you try to ask/how right you think you are. My reasoning is in the FAQ, and I will not explain myself further. I always aim for inclusivity, and I believe keeping the options minimal aligns with that.
You have found my FAQ! Here's more info about the blog and polls. Enjoy, and thank you for participating!
Polls that have been up for a year or more will be requeued. That way, new followers have a chance to vote in very old polls! Already posted submissions that are requeued will be tagged with #old submission. They will not have the same priority as new submissions!
Assume all ingredients can be any variation unless specified (ie for ice cream and fries, it can be any flavor of ice cream, or any type of fry)
I will not add an "I would try it button" because if you would try it, you would eat it. If you'd eat it, you'd try it. Basically, if you would put a bite of this food into your mouth, click the "I would eat this" option
I will not add an "I have eaten this (neutral)" option because I feel it unnecessary. In my mind, positive means you'd eat it again if offered to you, negative means you wouldn't. If you wouldn't immediately turn it down a second time, I'd say that's a positive experience with that food.
I have decided not to add options for any variation of "can't eat". If you can't eat it, it falls under won't eat. If you like voting while ignoring your allergies, you can this way as well. I encourage people to tag and comment why they wouldn't eat something if they'd like to share their specific situation! There's no shame, no matter how you vote
It's up to voter discretion whether or not an ingredient can be subbed out. I've seen people vote strictly based on what's written, and I've seen others vote as if one side ingredient wasn't there or substituted. I think both ways are valid, and ultimately I want y'all to enjoy yourselves! My one reservation is you probably can't take out any of the main ingredients.
There is no right or wrong way to vote! I will not tell you how to vote, or judge you for the way you vote. You may absolutely share how/why you vote a certain way, but I will not enforce any specific voting strategy!
Some images show a side dish(es). Those are not necessary to consider in terms of whether or not you would eat the main dish, however if a side dish would make or break a meal, use your discretion on your vote!
I add links to recipes on every post. Some posts will not have links because I used several sources or other similar reasons.
In relation, these are not my recipes. Please do not call me out for something written in the recipe, etc. Also keep in mind that I only know as much as what's written on the recipe for every dish. Asking me detailed questions is futile!
I will be adding tags to finished polls when I can. I will not promise to be perfect with this (and have not been) but I will do my best! The tags will be: #would eat, #would not eat, #have eaten (positive), and #have eaten (negative). This will allow anyone who would like to to use the search function to see the least popular foods and such.
This is for fun, obviously! If you want to bash ingredients/food in comments, go ahead. But please be nice to other people and respect their opinions!
My main blog is @triadecake, if anyone is curious or needs to reach me outside this blog for some reason.
That's it for now, I will be editing this as things change. Thank you for joining me on my quest to look at interesting food!

hi hello Im the guy (or. one of the guys?) who submitted ptitim for polling. tbh didn't think about the possibility of them being named as israeli in the name and getting hate sent your way over it, so, super sorry you had to deal with that :P but also thank you for not folding under the pressure of everyone discoursing over this and keeping true to the point of your blog by posting recipes regardless of where they're from. also fyi you can eat ptitim not necessarily in a salad (although it's certainly a popular way to make them), because personally I eat mine plain.
anyways. sending warm hugs your way as a thank you for being awesome in general and about this in particular <3
This is for real the last one I'll answer on this topic! I know I've said this already, but I didn't expect to hear from the submitter! I really appreciate you sending this ask, I think it's important we all step back and remember what the point of this blog is. Anyways, I will continue posting recipes from different countries, especially the ones submitted to me, and I think the people offended by that have left by now! Thank you for the kind words and encouragement 🥰
wrt the couscous thing: there are multiple types of couscous that all have different origins and methods of preparation! israeli couscous is much larger and actually made very differently to standard couscous; it's closer to being a pasta in nature, as it starts with making a dough rather than being flour mixed with enough water to form the tiny pearls. it did also originate in mid-1900s israel (as opposed to standard couscous, which originated thousands of years ago in northern africa). if you don't want to refer to it as israeli couscous you can call it pearl couscous instead (which i do), but "israeli" is the more common moniker. so it makes sense that the recipe was called israeli couscous salad as it was made with that larger, pasta-style couscous rather than the much smaller varietal (or any of the others! it's not just those two out there!).
(i learned this when i went on a whole couscous bender a few months back and ended up reading some about the history of couscous as a foodstuff. to those reading, i recommend going on your own couscous journey, it's pretty excellent.)
Thank you for the info! It's absolutely one of those ingredients/foods that can be found from many places, and usually different in each one. I love learning about food and origins because it's insanely fascinating to me! I've really appreciated all of the opportunities to learn.

I appreciate you and your fun little blog and wanted you to know that! You don't have to respond to this, I just felt you deserved this ask way more than you deserve online weirdos melting down because they saw the word "Israel"
Thank you for this, I definitely agree. I really appreciate the kind words!!
i don't get people being mad abt that recipe. there's been multiple countries whos food has been posted onto this blog who are actively committing genocide or at least assisting with it, and nobody seemed to care abt those posts.
I absolutely agree. It is what it is, I lost some followers and that's okay. As I said, this blog is about food and not about the atrocities any countries have partaken in
For anyone interested in the topic of migratory foodways, I highly recommend the book "Gursha" by Beejhy Barhany, a member of the Beta Israel Jewish peoples who fled Ethiopia to settle in Israel (before she opened a restaurant in Harlem). It's a fascinating look at the African Jewish diaspora and how identity is preserved and reconfigured through food 🙌🏽
I love this, thank you for the information! I'll have to look into it myself!
i really appreciate that you don't censor foods based on where they're from! it wasn't something that occurred to me until i saw the hate on that one post, but if you refused to post food from any country that committed a genocide this blog wouldn't exist lol. (you might want to lock reblogs on that post, btw)
I completely agree! I think this issue will soon be put to rest. I absolutely will not censor the food I post, and I certainly don't appreciate people calling me names or being rude because of that! Anyhow, thank you anon!

Multiple times while scrolling this blog, I’ve saved recipes because I want to actually make them. This has made curious though, I wonder how responses would look if the question was not “would you eat this food” but “would you MAKE it?”
Several of the dishes on here have been things that I’ve said “well, if offered I’d definitely eat it, or maybe even get it at a restaurant” but otherwise seem to be so much work to actually make that I wouldn’t bother (see the recent poll with the herb-y deviled eggs).
I obviously don’t anticipate you adding this as a poll, but I am curious if anyone else has thoughts about this.
That's a great question! I definitely assume you're right in that people are way more willing to try something than go through the effort of making it. Making things costs spoons, so it's hard to find those spoons for dishes you're iffy about. I would love to hear other opinions on this too, though! As of now, it definitely stays as would or would not eat so the data isn't too skewed by all that
Couscous salad is a North African dish...and I don't think we should be naming food after instigators of genocide. No, this is not anti-semitic.
I'll answer this, but I'm not going to be engaging with asks like this again in the future. The recipe I pulled from says Israeli. If you're actually for real mad about that, go to that recipe site and contact them (linked in the post). I'm just a fun little blog that spends about five minutes on each post because I have a life outside of this. I didn't name food after anyone, and posting food from a country is not taking a political stance. Some of you want to be mad about anything but y'all need to get off my blog and be mad at someone else! I'm not going to avoid posting foods because of anything going on current day, this is about how different cultures make food, not about making a stance.
just saw the person that said they press no as they're vegan. i'm also vegan and do the opposite! I just think if this food could be made the with exact same flavor/texture etc but it was vegan would I eat it?
I think that's valid too! As I always say, as long as you're having fun, you're voting the right way!!
Would you consider running a pickiness poll where the options are "i almost always say id eat it" vs "i never say I eat it" with shades of gray inbetween? People can say they are/aren't more or less picky than others but Id be interested in something a bit more comparative
Absolutely!
How picky/intolerant are you?
I almost always say I'd eat it
I say I'd eat it most of the time
It's truly 50/50
I say I wouldn't eat it most of the time
I almost always say I wouldn't eat it
Remaining time: 2 days 3 hours
I hope there's enough options here, but feel free to add thoughts or voting details in tags or comments 😁

I'm sorry, I didn't know there was a FAQ when I suggested the "I would try it" option. I'm new here :( I saw your followers getting mad on your behalf in the comments of that ask so I wanna apologize to them too
Oh, no worries! My followers get mad on my behalf because I've answered these questions so often already and I'm too nice to get mad myself 😅 but don't feel bad! Now you know 😁
