Don't worry... everyone has their limits and I have mine. In my case it was "Thousand Year Eggs" in Nanjing -- raw eggs buried in (I think) limestone and left to "think about things" for several months. The rain and the limestone leach the calcium out of the shells leaving them kind of leathery, the egg yolk turns into a grey crumbly thing, and the egg white turns into what can only be described as purple jelly.
Apparently you eat these. Despite my curiousity, I can not tell you how they taste.
