Something that weirds people out, without a good reason, is the idea of food that has been matured past the point where you’d normally eat it. People are most familiar with this concept when it comes to blue cheese, but there are several other interesting examples of food which has been allowed to continue past the point where it is most normally eaten. I think this is exciting stuff, and while I haven’t tried all of it, I’d certainly be inclined to give it a shot if the opportunity arose. What’s really interesting about this sort of thing is that “over ripe” foods like these are often considered more of a delicacy than the food would otherwise be.
