    Not as weird as most of the stuff on here but I've had bear, turtle and raccoon.

    Meat (we were told goat, I don't know if that's true...) from a Haitian (street) market, nothing like watching your meat get prepped with Clorox before getting grilled. I've eaten some interesting Thai food, unfortunately, I've developed too many food allergies to be able to risk a lot of new foods in foreign places (mostly because my (non-English) language skills are mostly limited to cursing and pick up lines) :-/

    I would say bear is pretty weird!

    I adore all manner of bugs: spiders, crickets, worms, OOH and cockroaches. Intestine of a few different animals: sheep, cow, pig. Normal stuff.

    ...I'm actually not impressed by my resume. I need to travel!


    P.S. Bear isn't weird... That used to be a weekly dish in my family. I had turtle. It was odd. I want to try guinea pig.

    I work at a public school in South Korea where eating like a Korean is important and respected (not to mention delicious!). At this point though I think that the Principal and Vice Principal are putting me through a series of food tests to confirm their belief that Americans/foreigners cannot eat all Korean food.

    Yesterday I ate coagulated pigs blood soup...they were impressed.....I think the next teachers dinner will be live octopus.

    Might have to draw the line there. :happy:

    What are some strange foods you have tried?

    Coagulated pork blood?

    That sounds like the ingredients of the Spanish Morcilla, one of my Favorite spanish dishes !

    That actually does look delicious! I have had the Russian style blood sausage and it was spicy and flavorful...it is a bit jelly like in the soup/stew though. Not an ideal texture.

    Squirrel (fed to me as a kid, couldn't eat it now though I recall enjoying it)
    Octopus (Took one chew and swallowed the rest of the bite whole so as not to be disrespectful)
    Frog Legs in Louisiana (again as a kid)

    That's it as far as out of the 'norm'.

    I've never eaten anything wierd (I've been a vegetarian since I was a kid) But when my husband was in the Navy he had monkey brains, balut, pan fried fluffy puppies (I add in the fluffy to remind him that my dogs are not appetizers), various animal testicles and the worst, the only thing he didn't like, was a sheeps eyeball, he said it pops when you bite down, couldn't get past it.
