ass
Strangest thing I've eaten was fried jellyfish when we had dinner with some Chinese investors for work. Had the texture of very lightly cooked onions and didn't really taste like anything. It really wasn't worth however much it cost. I had abalone that night too but I've had that before (just not Chinese style). [QUOTE=El Burro;51098588]Haggis is strange? I suppose most people when they first hear what it's made from recoil in horror, but it's filled with oatmeal, spices and has an incredibly savoury flavour. Can't remember if I've ever had a proper stomach bound Haggis before. I've been to enough posh dinners where I've ordered the haggis that I probably have, but never to a dinner where some kilted psychopath stands up to recite Burns and then splits a ewe's digestive system with his claymore. I had Oxtails during the BSE crisis in this country, which I'm going to count because it was like playing meat roulette.[/QUOTE] I've been to a dinner where a dude in a kilt recited Burns. He didn't cut up an ewe however.
eaten sashimi, tongue, escargot, and raw oysters before.
[QUOTE=Headhumpy;51098496] - Durian [/QUOTE] holy shit man, that stuff is foul. Went to an Asian food market and found Durian milk candies, bought a bag of em and gave it out to co-workers. Was pretty funny. As for the actual fruit, Durian is fucking horrible and I don't see how people consume the shit enjoyably. Never again.
Alligator jerky Deep fried oreos mmm Octopus in ink sauce
Semen.
I had caviar once it was shit imo
Some weird things to most people here in the us I have eaten in the last few months were probably bone marrow, beef tripe/tongue/tendons, chicken guts (liver, neck, and heart from a whole chicken I made, I like liver/hearts when it's made right) whole baby octopus, octopus and squid sushi, and eel. Also I used to eat ants when I was in kindergarden. They tasted like lemons. :v:
Pancakes/waffles/buns with liver pate. Super nice.
Haven't eaten things that are too weird, but the things I can think of: Fish eyes and fish brains. Snails. Bone marrow. And I used to suck on flowers "because that's where honey comes from" when I was a dumb kid.
Deep fried beer. Octopus.
Deep fried squid, the texture was fucking weird. I also put whipped cream in a sandwich once because I was out of mayonnaise, that was fucking abhorrent. Oh yeah and tofu, that stuff is fucking weird.
[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;51116002]Deep fried squid, the texture was fucking weird. [/QUOTE] How is that weird? Deep fried squid is popular all over the world and is a staple pub meal here in Australia.
I really want to try deep fried octopus someday.
Moose heart Horse shit (did not mean to)
[QUOTE=Zelle;51116113]I really want to try deep fried octopus someday.[/QUOTE] A close second in taste and texture is fried calamari. Most italian places have it on the menu as an appetizer. Ugh hungry now. I was going to get pork neckbones to slow cook for dinner but the grocery store was out of them.
I prefer squid and octopus stewed for a long time, the texture is slightly more goopy but there's way more flavour in the flesh. As Raymond Blanc put it, squid should be cooked for 1 minute or 1 hour, nowhere in between.
Peanut butter and pickle sandwich, p good Samoan dish of raw tuna soaked in coconut water and salt, also p good [editline]28th September 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=NeverGoWest;51116002] I also put whipped cream in a sandwich once because I was out of mayonnaise[/QUOTE] :what:
-Balut (or raw duck egg w/ fetus) -Sashimi -Wasabi -Fish eggs -Duck steak -Cow/Pig Tongue -Pig stomach -Horse meat -Habu sake I recommend everything but balut and wasabi. The former is... I guess, an acquired taste; while the latter is bizarre kind of bitter.
A swordfish BLT. It was mediocre.
