I think it's all about perception and social environment.
I made a traditional English rice pudding and invited some Chinese students to try it, all said "It looks nice but I don't like it" But when I pushed for an answer they all admitted they had never seen it before let alone eaten any , so after a while I managed to persuade them to try a little, more than half really liked it and between them they ate the whole dish, a dish that normally lasts me maybe 4 meals and I eat huge bowlfuls each time lol.
So I think we should try new food whenever the opportunity arises, you can be pleasantly surprised.
I like to eat things that teach me how to keep from starving to death; because a lot of people in survival situations pass up food that looks or smells gross until it's too late to catch up on calories, and they starve to death.
If you think the foods you named require a dare to eat... you might die if you find yourself outside of Pennsylvania.
I haven't had a chance to eat "balut."
I think if I can eat "balut," I'll never go hungry with food in my presence.
My favorite unusual food is large red ants: the ones that taste like lemons.

The first time I tried rice pudding I was 13.
I kept talking about flies and maggots so much that my siblings and cousins refused to eat any of it...

It doesn't take much to make someone lose their appetite in a school cafeteria.
Oatmeal with a crack across the top, that won't fall out of the bowl, and ricochet toast...

Tapioca, sweet potatoes, and coconuts make a really a good meal, filling and nutritious; but they taste like dessert.
Here's the only food I like better...
Purple Sweet Potato Cheesecake with *Haupia Topping
Ingredients 3/4 cups macadamia nuts (finely chopped) 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs 1/2 cup melted butter 1 1/2 cup Okinawa purple sweet potatoes (takes approximately 2 potatoes; steamed and mashed) 1 pound cream cheese (two 8 oz. packages) 3 large eggs 3/4 cups sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups coconut milk 1 cup sugar 2 cups water 1/2 cup cornstarch
Instructions: To prepare the crust: Preheat oven to 350° F. Mix the macadamina nuts, graham crackers and melted butter. Pat the crust into a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes in 350° F oven.
Remove the pan from the oven, but leave the oven on.
To prepare the cheesecake: Put the mashed sweet potato, cream cheese, eggs, ¾ cup sugar, and vanilla in a mixer bowl and beat until well blended. Pour the cheesecake batter over the crust in the springform pan. Bake for 1 hour in the 350° F oven. Cool completely.
To prepare the haupia: Mix together the coconut milk, 1 cup sugar, water, and cornstarch in a heavy saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the haupia thickens.
To assemble: Spread the warm haupia evenly over the top of the cheesecake.
*Haupia is like thick coconut pudding... like "spoon meat" from a young coconut.
