My nose twitches when you prick me over and over with a needle.

My allergist has ordered me on a diet of rarely-preferably-never eaten foods (on the basis that this makes me less likely to be allergic to them) while we wait on getting to the second round of testing.

I consider myself pretty well-eaten in the context of Canada-US food culture, including vegetarian/vegan fare, and I'm having a hard time drawing up a list of foods that I do not currently eat at least on occasion. Help me with my research! What are some of the rarer foods that you enjoy? I live in a big city and can probably find access to internationally grown foods, so lay it on me.

Quinoa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa). I use it instead of rice.

Fantastic suggestion. I made a batch of it this summer and loved it, but it keeps falling off of my radar.
