What food do you want to try and never had a chance to try it?

I never ate pigeon or guinea pig. Only heard that it tastes like chicken and rabbit. But I still want to taste it.

Matsutake/pine mushroom

I had all kinds of mushrooms but not these ones. Some had this little problem that they are edible only once.

What do you mean they are edible only once?

Edit: To be clear, the post above implies that they are poisonous. They are not.

I mean mushrooms in general, I pick mushrooms in forest and have to know which are poisonous.

I also pick mushrooms in the forest and have to know which ones are poisonous. With only a couple of exceptions, most are either poisonous for the first time (and then continuing after) or not poisonous at all. Until you start getting into eating some of them in large quantities and differences in people's digestive systems.

Anyway, matsutake are perfectly safe to eat more than once unless you specifically have some sort of sensitivity to mushrooms in general.

Don't forget that most mushrooms are poisonous/inedible raw you have to cook them with few exceptions.

I would love to forage but the risk of eating something poisonous definitely puts me off doing it
