    I went to a mexican restaurant and tried cow tongue

    Oh yeah, that's Barbacoa. Awesome dish if prepared correctly. It also slices up like Brisket. Living in San Antonio, Texas we get a a lot of that.

    My parents used to fix calf brains when I was younger. Put them in scrambled eggs. Actually there were quite good from what I remember. Of course I was young and that was half a century ago.

    Cow tongue ( delicious! ) Squab ( pigeon- like chicken) dried meal worms ( not bad just crunchy) The worst tasting thing Ive evet eaten is anemone ( DISGUSTING!) Ive also eaten raw octopus- yummy and eel which is good but if they dont skin it right its prickly lol. Cactus- its pretty good, bitter after taste if raw. Then of course pate( i cant spell it at all) but its raw liver. I used to call it potty when I was little. I assume potty would taste the same lol.

    I grew up on a farm so we ate a lot of things that most people wouldn't, including:

    Pig brains
    Pig pancreas (called "sweet breads")
    Beef tongue
    Beef heart

    All tasted very good and I would eat them again in a heartbeat (pun intended).


    Thats another thing ive tried sweet breads, but it was very fatty where I had it.

    Horse and chicken sashimi. The chicken is great and I've eaten it numerous times. The horse, not so much.

    A live octopus only 10-15 seconds after we fished it out of the sea.

    (while I was living for a year and half in Korea)

    Weirdest thing, probably bear, caterpillar, or ant. The bear and ant were intentional but the caterpillar was an extra on my kale.

    I LOVE cow tongue, it's probably my favorite protein. We had intestines at a Chinese restaurant, I hated it, but not sure if that was because of the intestines or because of the insane amount of cloves in the dish that annihilated my mouth. I also had chicken hearts at a Brazilian bbq place-they were tough.

    generally, my husband and I are pretty adventurous eaters.

    On purpose? Pig brains. Which just kind of tasted like really greasy, pork flavored stuffing. Then the thought, "There is brain in my mouth" made it really hard to swallow.

    Accidentally? Many years ago, I made a packet of Swiss Miss hot chocolate, and when I finished, I saw there were - those aren't marshmallows! - maggots or some other form of larva at the bottom of my mug. Took a long-*kitten* time before I could drink hot chocolate again.
