Japanese can be the people with the most delicate taste in the world. Their untiring zeal for new and better flavor turned Japanese cuisines into a work of
art. But as not all arts are beautiful, there are some disturbing foods or maybe
they're just too advanced and ahead of our time.
At first
glance, it seems like some sort of cosmetics, or, at best, curry made
of strawberry. But do not judge it too soon. It is made of sugar beet so it's rich in
iron, and, surprisingly, it actually taste not bad. FYI, there is a blue curry
as well.
Seemingly seriously rotten patty and bun will surely
make you not want to have a bite. As it's named, this burger is completely black from buns to even cheese. How do they make it?
Japanese use bamboo charcoal powder and squids’ ink for buns and sauce.
Japanese has
got this folk beliefs on the penis. Some people actually pray to penis shaped sculptures,
and there are even festivals dedicated to the penis. If you've got some appetite for some penis, Japan is the place to go.
Despite blowfish’s deadly poison, Japanese just can't stop eating this delicacy. Only restaurants with official license from the government
can offer blowfish cuisines, but more than 20 people were poisoned to death since 2000. Why don't you try your luck?
5. Frog Sashimi
Warning! It's freaking disturbing!
There is one famous restaurant notorious for offering weird and disturbing foods in Tokyo. Frog
sashimi is served in this mysterious restaurant. The the way frogs
are cut and sliced is shockingly brutal. Cooks cut poor little frogs alive.

Sushi is not only made with fish. Japanese people
love Sushi too much they started making Sushi with all sorts of bugs. You could
even try cockroach Udon in Japan. It's too gross I don't want to mention any more on this exotic
cuisine.

How about salted fish
guts? Don't get go Yuck too soon! Japanese even ferment (actually it's more like rot) the enchanting delicacy to make it even more gross.
Mainly mackerel and sardine are used, but it varies depending on regions.
