    (Throw it in a rice cooker for 15 minutes, it's actually really good and versatile.)

    I haven't eaten brains, besides the ick factor the idea of eating 1000% of the rda of cholesterol in one serving makes me wonder who would think it was a good idea.

    It's super easy to make, either with vital wheat gluten, or plain old flour.

    I wasn't sure what that was either, I should learn to never skim the forums before I've eaten breakfast. It's a worse visual than whole chicken in a can. :s

    I'm accepting of other cultures but that's barbaric. Never ceases to amaze me how horrid human beings can be.

    \yes I eat meat. No I don't believe in torture.

    Tuna. The smell just disgusts me so much, I could never try it.

    Quinoa is noms. I've never had sushi, or quince. Or mincemeat pie. Or dragonfruit....

    I've eaten opossum, cardinal, blackbird, and raccoon though. :)

    I've never eaten brains, eyes, or "sheep/cow fries." I wish I could say I've never eaten tripe, but alas, I've tried it.

    I've eaten lots of strange things but since i joined the forums i discovered that there's a whole word of alternatives that i never heard of.

    I've never had:
    Quinoa
    Basmati
    Seitan
    Tofu (just tried it recently)
    and a load of other things along those lines...

    But i have eaten some of the crazy stuff some of you listed and Bambi, Thumper, Rocky, and pretty much anything else that runs wild in Pennsylvania has passed my lips.

    Also i have had a local dish that is a stomach stuffed with odd meats like liver and heart and some other stuff that is then boiled in beer. What's worse than what goes in it is the name, they are called *kitten* which i think means meat ball in polish.

    So much disdain for our shelled edibles! I love clams, scallops, oysters, mussels, and the like. :)

    Never tried sardines. The jelly they're packed in puts me off.

    Porteresia coarctata - Bangladeshi wild rice.

    Turducken.

    I have had quinoa; use it as you would couscous; it just takes a little longer to cook. Try red Quinoa.
