I'm not quite there. I eat a lot of things most people won't but I draw the line at boiled chitlins and poule d'eau gumbo, LOL.

I can't get into the chitlins, either, but the gumbo???
Gumbo's a staple food here, and both my wife and my step-daughter are master gumbo chefs! Get it right, and it is a delicacy!
I've tried gumbo at a few places out-of-state, and very few are anywhere close to the real thing. I'm not sure where you live, but until you've had real gumbo, made by a Cajun from South Louisiana, don't assume you wouldn't like it.
[ETA: It should have a scoop of good potato salad floating in it!]
