It's that time of the week again - Back and Forth - where we share some of the conversations we've been having with our followers on Twitter lately. Tweet us @FoodNetworkCA to let us know if your tweets made our post!
This week is all about strange cuisine. First off, we asked you if there is a certain food that you could never bring yourself to eat. The responses we got were fascinating!
@konstantakos - I cannot eat okra. My mom would make and I would gag eating it. I would not eat raw meat and bugs or organs.

@ElizabethsFudge - I hope I would be brave enough to try anything, but I have a feeling I would say no to insect cuisine!
@enms - Always open to new things! Can’t honestly say you do not like something w/o having tried it (& properly prepared at that.)
@eudorafoods - I will eat anything! Unless it’s too hot, like say it had ghost peppers or something
@cookswithtofu - Geoduck!! That just creeps the heck out of me.
@_taniamarie - I'm an optimistic human garb-orator willing to try new things. Minus olives though! #BringItOn #OmNomNom #OrderUp
@talk2tr - I'm open to trying a ton of new foods, but one thing I could not bring myself to eat is horse meat. It just feels wrong!
@DuncanAlison - Not sure if I could do fresh tuna....it just looks so raw...this from a girl who likes her beef rare.
Next up we asked about the weirdest food you'd eat if you were paid $1000. The answers were pretty hilarious!
@TaraGaede - Pudding or jello lol.....I actually have phobias over those two things....the texture? ICK

@emotivatemktg - For $1000, I'd eat mass-produced, previously frozen mac & cheese.
@GFyyc - Anything. #tryme
@AimeeHudson - I dont need $1000 that badly.... :-)
@Booboomagoo - I'd go vegan for a week for $1000.
@SimplyUltraBlue - My dad's homecooked liver and onions :)
@thesweetestchef - I would eat bugs
As always, tweet us @FoodNetworkCA if you have any food-related questions or if you want to join the discussion!
