@youcantflexcardio A lot of dog biscuits are just cookies without sugar.
If there were chicken/beef flavored cookies, maybe.1 -
I haven't tried it yet because I don't know where to get it in my area, but I really want to try black sapote (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diospyros_nigra). It's a fruit that supposedly tastes like chocolate pudding. I also plan on buying some cricket flour. It's high in protein and B12.1

. . . which reminds me that I logged mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota), an entirely different thing from black sapote. I liked the mamey a lot, but I haven't seen it since. The black sapote sounds great: I'll keep my eyes open.
No cricket flour, though: Saved by vegetarianism again.

You can order the black sapote online to be shipped from south Florida where it's grown (and it's in season right now) but it's ridiculously expensive and I'm not sure how fruit would hold up in the mail. It says online that black sapote trees have a high fruit yield and can grow in many types of soil, so I wonder why it hasn't become a more widespread fruit if it really does taste like pudding. Maybe if people find out about it, it will become the new trendy food, LOL. It would be cool to go to south Florida and try a bunch of weird tropical fruits. I live in the NYC area though so it has to be available somewhere around here.
I'm pescetarian and crickets are arthropods like crustaceans so I guess they count as pescetarian despite being a land animal, but I want to try cricket because it's a low environmental impact source of animal protein and other nutrients. And farmed crickets don't have the mercury and microplastic issues that ocean animals have.

If you are in the NY vicinity - a few of the Asian supermarkets carry black sapote!
Would love to know how you like the cricket powder!

Really? I definitely will have to look around and I hope it isn't too expensive.
I will let you know! I don't think cricket powder is supposed to really taste like anything by itself but you can bake with it or put it in a smoothie or something.

I haven't tried it myself, but I've seen pasta made with cricket flour in the supermarket.0

Haggus and scotch eggs1

Camel meat, and I regretted it because it still tasted meaty. It was less vile than beef and surprisingly very lean and not gamey. I logged about 1/4 of a burger.
I just don't like meat in general, but I'm always open to trying. Explains the dozens of times I gave steak another try whenever someone told me it was "the best steak in town". I gave up on that eventually, but if there is a meat that doesn't taste like meat, I'm still willing to give it a try.2 -
Interesting topic. For the first time since I have been logging I had chittlings (chitterlings) this NYE. It is no so strange, depending where you are from. I was curious to see if they were in the database and they were. I did not check the accuracy, because I did not weigh the amount that I ate anyway.1

A bit of man sauce 😂😂😂🙄2

Weirdest thing I ever ate was possum in Australia. I found a USDA entry right at the bottom of the list past a lot of cafes and burger joints called Possums and some homemade Possum pies. At 168 calories per 100g it's quite high calorie. Probably why they only served it in tiny portions.1
