What strange foods do you eat that others don't understand??

You southern guys will laugh but out here in kalifornia, it's nearly impossible to find good fried okra. I'm a BBQ guy and the quality of BBQ in the LA area was so bad I had to get a smoker and learn for myself. I guess okra is next. I love okra but out here everyone just thinks it's weird.
Fried okra in corn meal! Man, that's my favorite comfort dish thinking back to my Moms east Texas cookin....I popped into a soul food joint in Long Beach and asked if they made it and the lady looked at me over her glasses and asked "what you talking about, what'ch you know about fried okra?" I also like salted plums, those little brown dried out prune looking things you get in the .99 baggies at Asian stores. They taste like solid salt until about the 4th one, then your looking for a beer.
