Wow people have tried some very adventuresome food. I dont thing I could stomach snake or scorpions. They creep me out too much. Thumbs up to the people who have. But killerjackalope with seagull !!! Cool. Ive had: Snails in Italy (very tasty, with plenty of garlic butter) Doner Kebab made from the meat off a goats head. Canned horse in Japan (yuck) Dog in Thailand Silk worm grubs Cat food (the writing on the can was in Polish and I thought it was pate. We live and learn) Id like to try kangaroo. An Australian friend says its great barbequed. The same friend thinks its disgusting to eat chicken liver. Man! – crumbed and fried they are fantastic.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh
well when i was little i ate peanut butter and rose petal sandwiches........
also various fast foods blended together (yuck, vomit, spew) as a fun dare-day event-thing i went to....

Darwin ( NT Aust. ) where I live is very multicultural and also has an abundance of Aboriginal bush tucker as a result I have eaten the following. Camel, Goat, Emu, Snake, Crocodile ( delicious one of my faves but it has to be cooked properly), Deer, Mangrove Mussels ( as good as oyster and more meat ), Turtle, Goanna, Long bums ( a type of mangrove snail ), Snails, Mud crab, Green ants ( good alternative for vinegar ), Sugar ants ( ditto for sugar ), Witchetty grubs, Sharks ( a heap of different species ), Sea cucumber ( Beche-De-Mer ), Sting Ray ( not bad if cooked properly ), Eel, Tadpoles, Yabbies ( a type of freshwater cray, delicious), Billy goat plums ( not testicles, plums )
Also Cycad and Pandus nuts as well as Bush bananas, oranges and tomatoes ( a non-toxic species here related to deadly nightshade ). Kurrajong seeds ( nice like popcorn ), Cocky apples, virtually every edible species of fish in North Australian water,
Basically if it moves we eat it, if it doesn't move we push it and then eat it.

I ate a bug once.

It was delicious.

In other news, I have also eaten squirrel and horse. Horse is really gross. Squirrel is tasty.

I have eaten a lot of strange things like frog, snake and monkey meat. when l visited China last summer holiday. Anther strange ting is that we were asked to come around to make a choice. l didn't expect that though.

Not TOO long ago, I had quite a selection (I needed to TREAT myself ;-) of different forms of Sushi and Sashimi, including raw squid, eel, several different fishes, and something I was unable to identify ;-) All quite delicious.

There's a seagull I have in my backyard with a broken wing that's pretty close to death. We can't do anything for it, so as soon as it dies I plan on cooking it to keep from wasting the meat. How do I prepare it?

Also, I've eaten goat and heard that snake is incredibly delicious. =)

when i waz 5 i drank flee and tic poison

Try eating duck eggs with half-formed embryos !
To stomach it, you've really must have a cultured taste for it.
Otherwise, you'll can't sleep for the next 2 days !!

Moose, sheep, caribou.

cow scrotum is eaten commonly in bangledesh and china

I like to eat asparagus (gross, huh?;-)

Always trying new things to eat.

I use to eat blood sausage all the time when I was a kid not knowing what it was because it was something you grow up with. I don't eat it any more since 1 its illegal to make and second its made out of blood. I'll eat chicken livers and things like that.

One thing I always wanted to try is gator meat, ever since I went to Florida and never got a chance to go to that Gator Land zoo. Looking in the brochure that's one of the things featured there.

I ate a slice of bread from the field rations of the Wehrmacht... tasted really good especially for beeing 70+ years old

I ate limpets once - prised them off the rocks in Lulworth cove (UK), cooked them on a disposable BBQ and ate them. Pretty good flavour; texture like a rubber washer.

I ate whole baby eels in Spain last year.

I made soup out of shore crabs

My plans for this year include feral pigeons and garden snails...

I accidently caught a fox in a rabbit snare on a survival trip, seemed a shame to waste it. I also ate worm omlette's, various small birds, fungi and leaves.
I'm quite partial to squirel (grey squirel in the UK) as they're considered a pest. They're a little like rabbit, but with little meat. I cook ethem in a thai satay sauce, so squirel with nuts.
I'm going camping this weekend by the sea, so will collect some food from there. Limpets are easy prey, and no-one seems to eat them. I'd eat them boiled up and pickled, alternatively they're good blended into seafood chowder for extra flavour. I may post an instructable on how to collect shellfish, including the best methods for limpets.
I'll eat pretty much anything out of the sea, except the used condoms & 'jobbie fish'.

I ate starch packing granules once (well one). They're like Wotsits or Cheesy-Poofs without being fried or tasty...

L

my aunt always gives me scorpion lolipops. the lolipop tastes alright, but the scorpion is bad.

German antipasto...

Growing up I used to eat Rocky Mountain oysters at Bruce's Bar in Severance, CO.

I lived in Switzerland for a while, ate horse a few times.

Living in Vermont, I like the spring Fiddlehead fern (fiddleheads).

Any members from the American SE would know about boiled peanuts, get them at most fuel stations, I love 'em.

Lastly, one of my favorite creations is Oyster-omelets, which is similar to brains and eggs (my inspiration).

Love living and exploring!

Its interesting how people usually consider meat based foods are considered unusual. in different cultures. Vegetables arent thought of as being weird, only disgusting in a taste way. Strange vegetables – durians. The smell of them is awful and they are prohibited on the subway in Singapore because of it. .

Ummm what have I eaten? Ostrich Wild boar Crocodile A couple of scorpions I ate three house spiders one day (accidentally, they got in to the food ma came back and asked what happened to the food in the pot, I assumed them to be bit of wierd vegetables that appear in my house, they were quite nice tbh) Seagull (dodgy chinese, owner was caught running up and down places with seagulls with a machete) Duck (not that wierd but people have reservations) Goose (again like the duck) A whole leg of lamb (I ate pretty much a whole leg of lamb in one sitting, the cuteness to volume ratio is important apparently) A bumblebee (I was cycling and swallowed the wee bugger)

The strangest animal I have ever eaten is what we call a "biju", "violet" or "figue de mer" (Microcosmus sabatieri).
You probably never heard about it (and probably will never eat one) because it's a very weird animal from the mediteranean sea.
It's so local that it does not even have a wikipedia page in english ...

It's a kind of invertebrate, 15 to 20 centimeters long enclosed into a kind of thick skin with the consistency of rubber.
Globally, it looks like something between an excrement and a Alien's egg (like in Aliens, the movie).

When you pick it, it's really like a piece of rubber, and the skin is so thick that you can't open it with a knife.
To open it, you must hit it against a rock (or with the handle of the knife), and it become hard like a rock.
Then you can open it with your knife ...

Inside, the animal is golden orange, yellowish .... Like sea urchins, the main part of it are its testicles ....
It's very very weird ....... It's so special that I can't even describe you how it taste.

Here is a webpage (in french) about it : http://renaud.waldura.org/diving/violet/

Else, I don't eat animals that I find cute, because if I find it cute, why would I want to eat it ?

I've tried ants once, and I probably tried some mosquito and flies by accident ...

And you eat dogs! eww!

uhhhhh....mcdonalds is pretty strange, right? i mean, its not like there food is real, its all genetically modified cow dung....

The strange things I have eaten it... Alligator Pheasant Deer Ox tongue Squid Eel Duck Goose Buffalo Shark And a few more i cannot think of...

Deep. fried. Mars. Bar. Nuff said.

like rishnai i have eaten a few weird morsels inc frogs legs snails water flea pate horse aligator eels hungarian goulash(cat) pigeons pheasant snipe woodcock rabbit deer partridge pigs trotters elder tripe (white) tripe (black) black pudding white pudding sweetmeats (lambs testicals) brawn (pigs snout) ox tounge ox tail and a few more i cannot think of lol

Grubs, emu, ants. turtle. parrot,

squid

My carnivorous habits tend to freak out my less carnivorous friends, especially the near-vegetarian ones. One cannot live on macaroni alone. Sometimes one has to put some mealworms on it. ;) So here goes: Wild Boar (favorite) Escargot Rattlesnake Alligator Elk Tripe (never again) Ostrich Antelope Venison Pigeon (my friend has a great recipe for it) Squirrel School Lunch (never again) Eel Possibly rat. Place across the street got busted a while ago. Crawdad Shellfish of many sorts The worm in the tequila bottle (never again) Mutton And some stuff I'm forgetting. Oh, and cricket. That was good. I also ate termite once on a bet. Unimpressed, not doing it again. But most of what's on that list, I wouldn't consider weird. Also, wild rabbit is something I want to try. I'll eat it if someone else killed it and butchered it, but those sharp shots are hard to find, especially ones that'll let you have the rabbit after they've done all the work.

I've eaten plenty of horse and rabbit, both of which seem to be considered strange / disgusting / horrifying by some in the US. Take it from me, you haven't really missed much if you haven't eaten horse meat. It's very lean, and it's supposed to be good for you, but the taste is rather blech. Rabbit, on the other hand, is one of my favorites... Let's see... eel - including smoked river and sea eal, eel in green sauce (how often do you find a recipe that calls for fresh sorrel?), and unagi. Sea urchin (uni), squid, snails, bison, ostrich, deer, boar, ... I'm probably missing a few. Nothing too outlandish though.

kalimari and alligator, they both are really good

I ate a piece of dog food once, just to see how it tasted.
