I think i found the world's grossest "food" (it's Italian) CW: not vegan AND IT'S FUCKING GROSS

The name literally means rotten cheese, it's intentionally filled with maggots to "ferment it," 'aficionados' specifically think it's unsafe if the maggots are dead so you're supposed to eat them live BUT THEY CAN SURVIVE IN YOUR GI TRACT and make you very sick. The fucking maggots can jump 6 inches!

What the fuck is wrong with people?

I learned about this because I guess I'm supposed to make a vegan "Dublin coddle" tomorrow for work and I was like, what the fuck is a Dublin coddle? and the wikipedia mentioned how it looks gross so Dubliners get defensive about it the same way others do about their weird national delicacies

The thing is though it's just slow simmered sausages and potatoes and shit, it looks gross because it's sad peasant food. This rotten cheese shit is on an entirely different dimension of "fucking gross"
