  • Fermented tofu - The single worst thing that's ever been in my mouth. It smells like ass; it tastes like ass. I have no choice but to smell it every time I'm in the PRC because there's a dude who's right outside my hotel with a portable cooker selling it. I was at a restaurant with friends and I finally broke down and tasted a tiny piece the size of an aspirin. Never again! It was so bad I can taste it even now just writing about it and it's making my face scrunch up in disgust! If this is on your culinary bucket list, take it off! Trust me.
I don't mind stinky tofu, but I guess it fits my palate since i'm Chinese. it has an intense earthiness that you need to balance with a sweet sauce. Not my favorite thing in the world, but i'll eat it.

theres also tofu cheese which isn't as pungent, but tastes really great when stir fried with water spinach
