    I've had Shark's fin soup at a Chinese wedding banquet - not sure what else was in the banquet so there may have been some other weird things there!
    Have had kangaroo as well, and now on the more common list is Ostrich burgers (so yummy and low in cholesterol too!)

    Not too sure how "weird" it is but I've made rattlesnake meat chili a few times.

    I tried chicken feet (billed as chicken paws on the menu) and couldn't eat them. Too crunchy - I was expecting them to be softer, also the coating was nasty.

    I also tried mealworms at university - a girl I knew was cooking up weird and random shizz and we all tried it. They were a bit tasteless actually.

    Deep fried baby frog. I was drunk. A street vendor in Bangkok talked me into it. Don't judge.
