Weirdest food you've ever eaten?

Sea cucumber (quite possibly the nastiest thing I have ever put in my mouth), shark fin soup, duck tongues (all consumed at a Chinese wedding banquet). Gator, yak, kangaroo...and pretty much everything else mentioned above save for balut and blood pudding.
Even though I am generally not much of a meat eater...I will try a taste of just about any food put before me. The only exceptions would be animals typically kept as pets (including rabbit, which I know is commonly found on menus, but I can't help thinking of my neighbor's sweet french lop-eared bunny).0 -

It's only weird if you're a Yankee I guess... frog legs and alligator. Loved the alligator - tasted like chicken with the texture of shrimp. Not a fan of the frog legs I had; they had an aftertaste of swamp.0

The weirdest thing I've ever eaten was chitlins. Didn't like them any of the three times but people kept tellin me that it was because the last time they weren't made right. At least I now know for sure that I do not like them.0

I had to Google head cheese. It was not what I expected. It's actually not at all as bad as I expected...0

My cousin and I went bullfrog hunting with bb guns and a net and brought a big one back, chopped off it's hind legs, peeled off the skin and had an adult cook em up fried chicken style (rolled in egg then seasoned flour then egg and flour again). It was actually really good tasted like chicken but flaked apart like fish0

Funny how foods are weird in one part of the world and not in another!
Blood cake = black pudding (I think) and its a traditional part of a cooked breakfast as well as a much loved alternative to fish in fish and chips where I live!
Ox Tail = Heniz soup doesn't it? Very popular brand and used to be one of my favorite 'flavours'!
Weirdest thing I've eaten: PIGEON and it wasn't all that great. Kinda gritty and very small0 -

I tried Escargot on a cruise ship and while it was not that bad, I would never eat it again. Just the thought alone makes me shudder.
Escargot, definitely. Wouldn't do it again (even though it tasted pretty good honestly), I'm just a "I need to try everything once" sort of person.
By extension, abalone. People think of abalone as shellfish like eating scallops or oysters, but they're actually aquatic snails.
Haggis is good, but another "I just want to try it once but other than that I don't feel like surpassing all the mental barriers" food item.0 -
Ohh, I had Pho the other day. There was hexagonal stuff in it which was kind of chewy. i found out later it was lung. It wasn't half bad.0

That must be either snake soup or fermented trout.0

Ostrich ... also had elk .. I also had blood pudding in Ireland!0
-
cheese. Think about it. That shít makes no sense. It's pressed coagulated milk.0
-
I ate an alligator empanada once. Best thing I ever ate.0

I've eaten Tripe. I've eaten blood sausage. These are acquired tastes and I won't eat just anyone's either. My mom was the best Puerto Rican cook ever...rest her soul.0
