People Share Which Foods People Must Only Pretend To Like

"...it smelled like..."

"It has a smell like ammonia..."

"Kæstur hákarl: an Icelandic dish made by taking a piece of shark meat, and burying it underground to ferment it for up to 12 weeks. It has a smell of ammonia (read: urine) and the consistency of cream cheese. I highly doubt that anyone likes this, but it has to be done because fresh shark meat is poisonous and fermenting it is the only way of getting rid of the toxins."

"I don't understand..."
