I think your list is longer than mine would be - I counted 40 that I knew I'd eaten, although it might be more as I didn't recognise some of them!
(no subject)
I haven't eaten haggis. Someday my prince will come.

I don't think currywurst or absinthe are particularly worth writing home about either, and I don't think I've managed any of your other blanks. Not 100% sure about carp.
Sandy Petersen reputedly force-feeds raw peppers in the habanero/Scotch Bonnet end of the market to his guests, but so far I've escaped.

On that subject one of the A&E writers had the following in this month's zine.
"Sandy Petersen, in the podcast of the UK Games Expo run of his scenario “That Hideous Strength,” bluntly contradicted players, and they acceded without complaint. Players would announce they were leaving a room, and Sandy would say, “Okay, now you’re deeper inside.” [“What!” I said, listening. “That’s not what happened! What’s going on?”] When the hum¬vees were sabotaged, the group realized the medic and another PC were the only ones who were alone with the vehicles for any time. “But we didn’t do it!” those players said. “The gook on their hands shows they’ve clearly been in the engines,” said Sandy. “That’s blood!” said the medic. “I’ve been giving first aid after the battle!” (True.) “Nope,” deadpans Sandy. “That’s definitely motor oil.” No further protests. I was blown away!"
