I too was like that for a while as I would imagine the food in its original form and it would gross me out even though some of the foods I eat as a part of my own heritage is known to make people ask why I would choose to even eat it. I guess the answer to that question is that I actually enjoy the final form factor however gross it may look before it is prepared. I savor the taste and consistency, and the childhood memories that come rushing back with every bite. I think to myself, why limit myself only to my childhood nostalgia with food, why not try some of these new foods and if I enjoy them I can create more nostalgia as I move through time. Anyway, I would wait until I see how these foods look when prepared, and as long as there isn't any health warnings or safety disclaimers to sign, I'm all for giving it a shot!
