Are you a foodie?

There is a food challenge circulating around these 2 days. It's an app with a list of 100 foods, from US staples like barbecue ribs and pastrami on rye through brunch classic eggs benedict to Chinese delicacy bird’s nest soup, smelly fruit durian and even kangaroo and squirrel!? Why no turtle? Anyways, it is thought that most people tried only less than 20 of these foods. If you have tried more than 20, then you are a foodie!
