Forbidden Foods… Whoa.

Written by Bryce

Even cosmopolitan cities like Chicago have banned certain foods!


Did you know that some of the most popular ingredients in your favorite dishes are totally illegal in many places? Foie gras, or fatty liver, is totally illegal in Chicago and San Diego, and mangosteen fruits can’t even get out of Asia. Haggis is illegal in the USA because it uses sheep lung, and durian is simply too stinky to sell in many parts of the world!
