Food is so much more than sustenance. Curious foods from exotic cultures have always fascinated us. Unfamiliar foods can be delicious, or they can be more of an acquired taste. While cultural differences often separate us and create boundaries, food can also connect us. Sharing a meal is the best way to turn strangers into friends.The evolutionary function of disgust is to help us avoid disease and unsafe food. Disgust is one of the six fundamental human emotions. While the emotion is universal, the foods that we find disgusting are not. What is delicious to one person can be revolting to another. Disgusting Food Museum invites visitors to explore the world of food and challenge their notions of what is and what isn’t edible. Could changing our ideas of disgust help us embrace the environmentally sustainable foods of the future? The exhibit has 80 of the world’s most disgusting foods. Adventurous visitors will appreciate the opportunity to smell and taste some of these notorious foods. Do you dare smell the world’s stinkiest cheese? Or taste sweets made with metal cleansing chemicals?  EXHIBITED DELICACIES INCLUDE: * Surströmming – fermented herring from Sweden. * Cuy – roasted guinea pigs from Peru. * Casu marzu – maggot-infested cheese from Sardinia * Stinky tofu – pungent bean curd from China. * Hákarl – well-aged shark from Iceland. * Durian – infamously stinky fruit from Thailand. FAQS  WHAT ARE MY TRANSPORTATION/PARKING OPTIONS FOR GETTING TO AND FROM THE EVENT? There is plenty of parking space all around the museum. The closest train station is Malmö Central station, 300 meters away. HOW CAN I CONTACT THE ORGANIZER WITH ANY QUESTIONS? Send an email to booking@disgustingfoodmuseum.com  IS IT OK IF THE NAME ON MY TICKET OR REGISTRATION DOESN'T MATCH THE PERSON WHO ATTENDS? That's no problem. Once the ticket has been scanned, it is consumed, but you're free to give your ticket as a present or let your friend go instead of you.
