You'll eat anything, yet us Dutchies try to smoke everything. Doesn't always work out.

But we did that for thousands of years already :blink:

China sounds as if it has a lively culinary tradition. I should pay it a visit one day.

Plus frog's legs, jelly melon, ostrich, miracle berry, lychee, horchata, two kinds of turtle, lotus root, daikon sprouts, and if I remember any more I'll come back.

Has anyone try Chicken's kidney before

Either kidneys or lungs, whichever is in the little grow behind the thigh. When I was a kid I hated them, now I think it's delicious. Fried chicken heart was the same, I used to hate it, now I adore it.

Were they battered heavily or did you just not notice the veins were green?

Pizza... topped with shrimp. BAD IDEA. AVOID IT.

I think you missed. You got either the balls or the spine.

When i went with my family to Cambodia for a summer trip, our tour guide took us to eat some "local food" (he was pranking us, the bastard

). He brought some locusts up, and i ate one. He looked at me with disbelief, and said "brave man.".
That about sums it up

How are lychee's strange?.... :unsure:

Oh yeah, and I've had bamboo sprouts a lot as well. Great stuff. I've also had natto and shark.

Puzzle pieces. They were a real treat up until I was about 7.

Now: Raw batter and dough. Cake, cookies, pancakes, pie crust...anything like that tastes better or at least is acceptable raw.

Because I live in the Southeastern US.

I had pizza with crisps/chips, corn, and egg on it once.

Never ever ever ever ever will I eat that shit again.

We grow them in Florida.

Once when I was in Poland with my family some locals invited us for some duck blood soup. No kidding. Local speciality, looks like diarrhea and tastes like diarrhea.

They also seem to be in plenty of supply in California.

Also, I've tried dragonfruit before.

I was once offered Cazu Marzu.

Seeing as how it was rotten cheese souffle with little worms jumping out of it, I passed.

I ate grasshoppers at a culture festival. Chinese people were selling it, I believe.

Dragonfruit is quite tasty. That said my exotic Asian fruit tastes lie with lanzones (known in Indonesia as duku, and I had to go to Wikipedia to find an English name :x), rambutan, and such. While I'm on the subject of Indonesian treats, they like to take soy nuts and coat them in garlic. It sounds a bit odd but it's incredibly addicting. Don't eat too many at once or you get a headache. I'm not sure if it's because of MSG or if it's because of the hard texture of the nuts, which makes for loud, pained cracking each time you bite down on them.

Chitlins...not bad actually. They would taste better if I didn't know what they were though.

by **Eine Heimat** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 3:25 am

Some crickets and ants, both of which were delicious.. And canned korean silk worm, which was disgusting. Also, ox tail and hand-made fruit pizza (actually I prefer some variety of hawaiian + peppers).

Where I live I've seen them in a grand total of two restaurants, and in cans at ethnic food stores. And it's not like I live out in the sticks, I live in my state capitol.

I'm not exactly sure. I eat a lot of things that I don't realize.

I have eaten spiders... many other bugs...glue...play dough (and clay)...cat food...dog biscuits...seven year old chocolate bar...that melted bit of candy-cane from last christmas...branchs, leaves and needles from many trees and bushes which I cannot name...I think those made me sick, I can't really remember :unsure:

I think the strangest thing I've ever eaten (or drunken I guess) was soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, ketchup and sodapop. NEVER, under ANY circumstances (unless life or death) agree to eat that. Don't even mix those together. I almost puked just from the stench.

but I got my 20 dollars.

I was going to ask you a question, but your sig already covered that.

Crickets with barbecue and cheese flavor.
