Adults know that kids are the most picky eaters. Though, when asked to eat cooked snails, or escargot, their horrified reactions make for pure entertainment.

When introduced to the escargot, most of the children either have no idea what it is, nor have any interest in putting it in their mouths. Though after poking, prodding, smelling and licking the snails, they all proved their bravery in consuming the slimy mollusks.

The popular French appetizer was, expectedly, not very popular amongst the kids who voted not to recommend escargot to others 7-2.

"That was the worst thing I've ever had," said one kid. "Disgusting! Whoever eats this is a hobo!" declared another.

One level-headed teen, who had tried escargot before, assured viewers that it wasn't as bad as it sounds:

"It's not that bad. It sorta tastes like chicken with a ton of garlic."
