    Really? I had alligator and it was pretty delicious, but I have heard that it needs to be prepared very carefully or it gets quite tough.

    Fried calamari at the bar... probably not a good choice for the first time trying it. Good thing I was already drinking.

    fried ants or swordfish. The swordfish was quite good. I couldn't get past knowing I was eating ants to enjoy them.

    Hákarl, or also known as "fermented shark", from Iceland. Now I know why the alcohol is so strong there:smile:

    Either blood pudding or frog legs...Blood pudding surprisingly has no flavor, but nasty texture. Frog legs were pretty good except for the stringy tendons :/

    Horse milk in Kazakhstan -- it smells and tastes like straight-up vinegar! :P Horse meat tastes a bit like beef, just a bit tougher... I think I'll stick to just riding horses from now on!

    OMG the infamous balut!! I saw that on the show Fear Factor once, and I thought "Haha, the Pilipino contestant has this in the bag. My [Pinoy] grandma just bought that yesterday for lunch!" Can't say I've had it myself though, haha. You are far braver than I am. :)

    Alligator.

    I thought it tasted like spicy pork...I loved it. I was tricked into eating it though, and I'm glad about that......had I known ahead of time what it was, I probably would not have tried it.

    Pig brain. The taste and texture was like greasy pork stuffing. The thought "this is brain" made it hard to swallow.
