Hambone 0 #26 February 21, 2007 Geez, Octopus in italy. I am sure I have had other strange things, there was a wild game restaurant where I went to College, and they would have all kinds of crazy stuff. It was lots of fun to go out and get the Chef's Sampler which consisted of like 4 different meats. Everything I had was quite tasty. No complaints here!Yeah...You need to grow up. -Skymama Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #27 February 21, 2007 Quotenot me but... i got caught short in winter and had to have a poo in the woods. it sat in the grass steaming... it was a good poo. solid. brown. like a torpedo. i was just pulling my pants up when my dog bounded over, had a sniff, the a lick then began to eat it. i tried to stop him but disgust turned to incredulous captivating disbelief... i watched him eat the whole thing. he died a few weeks later. caught pulvo virus. probably from me. well.. you know what they say... eat shit - and die. . Geez... I know dogs have been known to wolf down shit left in their yards if its not their own, but damn....

pfloyd 0 #28 February 21, 2007 I had a millennium egg, it is a Filipino delicacy. They take a special egg, bury it underground and leave it there for a year. They collect them after that and serve it cold, plain or with a sauce. I really didn't like it but i would rather try something for myself and come to that conclusion based on my own experience. I eat a lot of Sashimi and most people think that is weird, but it is not. These comments usually come from people who wouldn't even give it a try.

Lindercles 0 #33 February 21, 2007 I used the extreme example to show that no matter how much anybody says "you can't say something is weird/gross if you've never tried it," everybody has things they just instinctively think are weird/gross. Yours just may be different from someone elses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #34 February 21, 2007 I've had plenty of interesting foods. Growing up in the Los Angeles area, I had oppotunity to try all kinds of things. I had a sesos (brains) quesadilla. Not too good. I did find lengua (tongue) to actually be pretty good - very tender. I've had tripe in Mexican and Chinese food. What I don't touch are insects or worms or any other nasty-ass bugs (I am profoundly hobic of them). My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Start drinking a bit more, take some drugs and settle down to a life of mediocrity. Someone drank a whole cup of their own wee on Shipwrecked just so they could have one Marshmallow. Freshly squeezed it was. The buggers had a whole packet and still only gave the guy ONE after he did that. how rude. i'd have taken the friggin lot.The only thing stopping you is all the people that want to stop you!

DrewEckhardt 0 #41 February 21, 2007 My birthday dinner included sea urchin genitalia (Uni), monk fish liver (Ankimo), and raw quail egg (Uzura) atop flying fish roe (Tobiko). I was looking forward to a cured tongue sandwich tonight, but the salumi shop was sold out. No lamb proscuitto either. I also really like raw ground beef (steak tartare), crispy beef thymus (sweet breads), raw thinly sliced beef and venison (carpacio), beef heart, and beef tongue (unfortunately the salumi shop was sold out of cured tongue today. I order my Pho with tripe and tendon. Jelly fish, duck liver, and duck heart are ok. The pig skin tacos I had at my favorite carniceria were not. Alligator, antelope, elk, ostrich, and rabbit are all tasty. Escargot with olive oil and garlic can be yummy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #48 February 21, 2007 Kay-Gogi (Dog) in Korea. I had to really get to know some people before I could get it. You can't just order it in a restaurant. It's considered a seasonal delicacy. I had never eaten lamb much until I came to the middle east. I still don't really like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
