Foods I prefer raw to cooked (and vice versa)
1. Oysters: RAW. I suspect I like the cocktail sauce and the exciting risk of food poisoning better than the actual mollusks.
2. Clams: COOKED. Surprise! Yes, I like my oysters raw, but clams on the half shell taste, to me, like the bottom feeders they are. Go figure.
3. Carrots: RAW. Cooked ones remind me of TV dinners. Raw ones are fun to eat 'cause they make a lot of noise.
4. Mushrooms: COOKED. Raw mushrooms are things I pick out of a salad. Cooked ones are my pizza topping of choice.
5. Monterey Jack: COOKED. If cheese were available in a permanently molten state, the world would be a better place.

I prefer broccoli cooked to raw. It's good raw as part of an ensemble or something to dip, but when it's cooked right, it's heavenly to me.
Salmon is perhaps my favorite of all sashimis, yet I like it even better cooked--poached, broiled, even fried as they do in Cincinnati.
I like Oreos better raw. This fried Oreo craze is quite disgusting, and turns a delightful snack into a disgusting mess.
I could go either way on carrots. Both arguments have merits. I have no qualms with raw mushrooms, but they're positively electric when cooked.
I would like to see a list of your favorite 10 foods, period!
