I think snails in France... my mom made me eat them if I wanted to see a friend, then I didn't even get to see her! And calling them escargot doesn't make me pretend they're not snails!

I had the quail egg sushi, it wasn't memorable! And so damned expensive, never again!

A locust (it was dead). The legs were scratchy, but it did have a crunch! I would never eat another one. (Things you do on a dare...

Octopus(sp?) and for those wondering... it tasted, looked(the inside meat) and the texture was just like chicken... honestly, it wasnt that bad except for the little suction cups on its legs... creepy feeling....
(my husbands grandparents are portugese, and this is a regular meal for them)....
gosh, i hate seafood!

I haven't really had anything weird. I'm all American!! But when I was little, I would share with my bird's food! It was ok, I guess.

Definitly sushi...OMG never again made me feel sick for the rest of the night! Yuck, yuck, yuck!

Well maybe that's not the weirdest.. but I have tried all types of pet food, I test before the cats get it.

I've always wondered....if these strange and exotic foods taste just like chicken, why not eat chicken?


Even though I never thought it was wierd, we ate deer and elk heart when I was growing up. It was the best part, very tender and a real subtle flavor.
