Would you eat this? Rare cheese, Casu Marzu, is filled with live maggots. Purposefully.

Casu Marzu via YouTube.
This is banned for sale in the U.S., by the way. For all you adventurous type, you'll need to go to Sardinia.

I wouldn't but to each their own. I am sure some of those folks would consider boudin and cracklins repulsive.

Nah

If I was starving, of course I would.
But presently, the answer is NO, I'm not a fricking idiot.

Not a chance. Live maggots? 
And I've eaten fried crickets and other weird shite like that in Thailand before.

Cheese that could gag a maggot

That's a no for me.

This might come as a shock to some, but Sardinia is not on my bucket list of places to visit. Pass on the maggot cheese.

You can also potentially not be allowed into the us depending on the variety as you can potentially bring invasive species here because of it. Remember hearing about that during some food show that covered this

Just when you think you can imagine what rock bottom looks like, someone brings out the maggot cheese.

I never had one like that.
I did have one where they drill a hole and put maggots in.
After a while they are removed. The cheese is washed and then resalted. Then dried/aged.
Supposedly an aphrodisiac. Tasted like piss.

Are you under the impression that Sardinia is some poverty stricken, third world shite hole?
Because it's not.

I lived in Sardinia in the early 70's. One of the first things I witnessed was a construction worker eating this and scraping the crumbs (maggots) in a lil ball and eating them like bread crumbs. Never tried it but it is harmless.

I'd give it a try. I've tried some weird shite in my travels. Most of it I haven't wanted second servings, but hey, you only live once, so go try it at least once.

You are missing out my friend. Not only is it beautiful but the food (minus maggots) is fantastic and the people are the best!

Cracklins are gross, but to be fair, both boudin and cracklins are cooked with no bugs in them.
