If you think these blood recipes are nasty, empty all food you have and don’t eat anything for 3-4 days. Then go to the store and get some blood food or ingredients and eat a blood dish. You’ll understand then very quickly why these became a thing nearly everywhere around the world. Hunger is the ultimate spice.
So if I think they’re nasty, I’m wrong because I’m not starving enough? Not a great counterpoint. They’re still nasty in that scenario, just a helpful nasty.
Aaaaaand that’s how you know someone who has never starved before. Truly starved. The stomach has it’s own opinion when left empty long enough.
It’s good though, that you never had. I’ve been through a lot, but the trauma of starvation is a permanent one. It’s best you don’t ever see the perspective of why people made food from blood.

German “Black-Sour” traditional north eastern dish doesn’t taste half bad…
and if you butcher an animal… you have blood available… why not eat it instead of wasting it.
also… black pudding/blood sausages and stuff are amazing

Not every disagreement is worth arguing about
