Cow tongue, Cow brain, of course...chitterlings, racoon, squirrel, gator tail and bear. Out of all those...the Cow tongue and brain has to be the wierdest. It wasn't the nastiest. The nastiest was the gator tail. EH!
What? Don't look at me like that! >:(

Wow! I though I was really doing something when I ate escargots....can't say that I envy you though. Happy eating.

Now, I can't make myself eat those. I had the opportunity to eat some on a cruise and I just couldn't. My brother and his wife ordered a second round. Ewww.

I'm finicky and very close-minded when it comes to food. My version of "bizarre food" is eggplant, ackee, breadfruit, and lamb.
Of course, I grew up Black, in a family with southern roots, so I did eat chit'lins (also known as chitterlings), pig feet, chicken feet soup, neckbone, turkey necks, whole fish, and that's about as "bizarre" as I will go. LOL
What IS bizarre to me is eating anything that I attended the slaughter of just hours earlier.
-
I watch it quite a bit. I was laughing at him last week because Cambodia shut him DOWN!!!!!!!! He was spitting out food left and right. He's still uber-gross to me. I think the show where he went to Morocco or Saudi Arabia made me turn the channel.
As for the strangest thing I've ever eaten, I'd have to say that sashimi(raw seafood) is as far as I've went. Haven't had any in a while, but I can handle it. I always swore that I would never eat calamari(squid), or eel. I tried both a few years ago and now I absolutely LOVE them. Eel actually tastes just like catfish, because if you look at it closely it's really just an extra long catfish which it is related to, as an eel is actually a fish anyway.
-
Oh, and I just can't do the "country" stuff, but my father can do it all day long. I just got into eating neckbones. Those joints are pretty tasty.

I can't do the raw seafood. And some seafood like Eel, Octopus and calamari gives me chills just thinking about them.

Yessir! I love me some neckbones!

Wwaaaaa??! ?/? Negro you just haven't eaten the right neckbones. Let me cook ya up some...you'll be biting your fingers. LOL :D

I'm telling you, if you like catfish, then you will love eel. Technically it's the same animal. Try some fried calamari and you will be hooked. It's a very light flavor. Most of the taste comes from the breading. Go buy you some at Kroger or Wal-Mart and pop 'em in the oven. You'll be eating it at least once or twice a month. Thought about trying octopus, but that's one I don't think I'll ever do. EVER!!!!!

My moms makes pretty good neckbones. They're extremely tender.

So I guess you'll pass on the Sannakji (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sannakji)!
-
I almost forgot.....the most exotic thing I've eaten is caviar, and salmon roe. It's been a few years since I've had some, but I look forward to the next time I do get to enjoy some.

Cow tongue, , of course...chitterlings, squirrel.

I have eaten all of this. ;D They tricked me with some possum. Told me it was tir fry.

Please! Please! Can I post? Can I post? Please?
Bah. I'm posting anyway.

#1 - Bundaegi: Roasted Silkworm Larvae. Yes, they're bugs, but they taste like peanuts.
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3271/2557960376_48e86f82fa.jpg)
#2 - Sanjiguk/Haejangguk: Cow's Blood Soup. That thing that looks like poo is actually coagulated cow's blood. Mmmm. Yummy. My friend and I tricked my wife into eating it. :) ;D
I've also had bison, squid, octopus, cuttlefish, and flounder (it just looks weird). I've eaten raw seafood too. I think it's actually better raw.
I wanted to try kaegogi (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/42/87688655_9c018cc906.jpg), while I was in Korea; but I never got around to it. I'll try it one day.
While we're kuntree, we're going to try some squirrel, opossum, raccoon, deer, etc. I'm going to shoot (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=856663&l=cb3a3f994d&id=1612317294) and slaughter the smaller animals myself.
Oh, and while it's not really "weird", it was the only thing that I couldn't really eat: Bitter Cola (http://static.shopify.com/s/files/1/0001/6816/products/bitter_cola_large.jpg). This is a....treat, I guess....that Nigerians eat. When I say "bitter", I really mean bitter! A church member gave me a handful. I ate two, maybe.

May I ask, umm what is escargots? :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

When I was in Taiwan, I saw people eating whole sardines and snake blood. Kinda weird to me.

Snails. And they are delicious. I had them on a cruise. In pesto sauce. They looked like mushrooms.
-
One of my clients from work said he tried canned elephant before and it wasn't bad....EWWWWW now that's disgusting!

So will you catch your own snails? LOL

how big was the can?
-
One of my cousins, while in the Air Force stationed in Texas, inadvertently at some rattle snake. He said it was quite tasty before he found out what exactly it was that he was eating :D.
-
1. I think just about anything can be tasty if prepared properly. I mean you can put crushed bumblebees in a bar of chocolate and say you ate bees and it was good. Cut up some elephant or snake or armadillo or whatever, curry it, add potato, onions and throw it over some rice and you probably won't even know what it is.
2. I admit I'm close-minded and finicky when it comes to food. But I just think we have enough animal meat in our culture (American) to satisfy all our cultural tastes and desires. With chicken, lamb, turkey, a zillion kinds of fish, beef, pork... why the need for other things? Seriously? Just to say you ate it?
-

Bruh you missing out. Its the BOMB!
And umm sis, you gotta get out your little box lol. American isnt the only way of life. Also remember American is actually a mixture of most of the other countries cultures put together :P. Also, theyve been doing it longer lol.
As for me, I'll try anything, but as far as bizarre, Ive had octopus and Ive had a Kangaroo steak (I cant describe it, other than....different LOL).
-
@BX I take it it was the size of a can of veggies. It's illegal to have here in the US he said, but somehow his rich little fingers got a hold of a can lol. He said he tried bear, wild boar, kangaroo and all that other weird stuff...
Now Andy Zimmerman, the Bizarre Food host is very VERY open minded. That dude eats animal eyes, butt, heart, lungs, kidney, feet, toenails, hair...pretty much anything lol...yuck!!
The weirdest food I've probably eaten was oxtails so that goes to show you how "bizarre" I am lol.

Bear is soooooo good. I loved it.

Fresh elephant would have been so much better, that canned stuff is whack ;).

I agree, but, over seas, they dont all eat fried chicken and pulled pork and what have you. I ate most of the bizarre foods I have tasted while I was in other countries... Where it is bizarre to us, but it is just good ole eatin' to them. Like the time I drank pigs blood milk.
There is no way that I would pay $1500 round trip to Japan (next month) and not try some of their foods. I am going on the vacation to see their culture. If I want to see the Japanese culture and eat pork chops, I may as well just fly to San Francisco, go to Japantown and go to The House of Prime Rib or sum'n like dat. And yes, in the end, it is also to be able to say, I ate ______ and I have tasted ______...

Gurl, oxtails is where its at! They are soooo expensive though, I dont eat them very often. But you cook them up with some onions, rice, gravy, some greens a a couple of buscuits, red Kool Aid (2 1/4 cups of sugar) and a slice of peach cobblar two scoops of ice cream, a pillow and a fuzzy blanket and my favorite Marvin Sapp CD, and I swear that would be the perfect meal!

LOL. My avatar has to be a reflexion of me... and some of the things that I love the most. You'd think that I was 400 pounds... But what can I say, I loves me some food! :D

On one of the Bizarre foods episodes, I saw him eat ants straight from a tree. :o :o :o :o :o

I've heard/read that ants are high in protein, even moreso than meat. We have a survival guide that talks about it.

were they some of these? Cause I'd like to try some. I heard they are really sweet.

Reminds me of a co-worker that told me that she didnt eat bologna, and that she wouldnt dare eat that stuff... then orders a hotdog from the HotDog King restaurant... If only she knew that whats in her hotdog is a little worse than whats in the bologna. I mean, at least the bologna has a first name. :-\

Sounds like a chick that was on Real World: Hawaii that kept saying that she didn't eat pork, but she ate sausage. She claimed that she didn't know that sausage had pork in it when they told her that it was indeed pork. And don't nobody gimme no mess about it could have been turkey sausage.

One of my nephews HATES chocolate cake... LOL, BUT he asked me, begged me to make him a red velvet cake... I waited until he ate half of it before I broke it to him that it was chocolate... :D I can still hear him now... gagging. HAHAHA!
