62. Sweetbreads
63. Kaolin Is this a trick question? Kaolin is a clay! Who eats clay?
64. Currywurst I'd try it, but it sounds weird.

Baijiu I'd have said that I would try it, until I read this: The author Tim Clissold, who writes frequently on China, noted that he'd "never met anybody, even at the heights of alcoholic derangement, prepared to admit that they actually liked the taste", and that "after drinking it, most people screw up their faces in an involuntary expression of pain and some even yell out."
