Strangest thing you have eaten
« on: April 16, 2020, 09:28:13 PM »
Too much Rona talk, let's discuss something more uplifting.  List off the strangest things you have actually eaten, not just tasted a molecule of but sat down at a table and actually gave an honest try.

Balut
Is a fertilized developing egg embryo that is boiled and eaten from the shell. It is commonly sold as street food in the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries. The length of incubation before the egg is cooked is a matter of local preference, but generally ranges between 14 and 21 days.

Probably rattlesnake.  Maybe haggis.
I can think of some other weird things, but they are pretty common on sushi menus across the world so I guess they aren't too weird.

In Bolivia I ate rice soup that was absolutely full of ants.   Like a couple hundred and in a bowl of soup.

It was not supposed to contain ants, but they got in the rice, and that is what we had.
They were teany, and there were thousands and thousands of them in our rice.
They were crunchy.

Also.in the Philippines. Ate sun dried fish dipped in a red sauce.these were finger long fish salted then dried in the sun and eaten whole dipped in a red sauce, kinda like a potato chip dipped in salsa. The whole fish... kinda weird. I've had goats milk. Also in the Philippines pig brain as a delicatessen.

Dried Durian fruit (not spelled right). We use to do a feat factor eating competition every year. I think the worst was blue cheese with sardines and chocolate sauce

Zebra very sweet meat. Lots of people have eaten it.

Probably one of the wildest that only a few people will probably ever eat in the world is barasingha deer. Was very good.

Opening line of this thread we had too much ‘rona talk and you open up with this.

I used to regularly eat snapping turtle soup made from turtles we caught. My grandfather was the head turtle cleaner and  soup chef. We’d kill them by shooting them in the head. Had to get them pissed off enough to stick their head out and bite something... usually a stick... and then pop them. It was good stuff.
