Pan-fried grasshopper tacos, with a bit of cilantro, onion, lemon and spicy green sauce. That's right, grasshoppers, whole. There's about twenty five of them in each taco. It's a delicacy from central Mexico, sold in only one place in my town. My friends make faces when I tell them what I had for lunch. Personally, I think they're super tasty, like a prairie version of unpeeled fried shrimp, and it's been proven they're way up there on the nutrition scale.

We won't know how gross it is until you tell us what it is.

Yeah I read that about them being a good source of protein. And they're so much cheaper and easier on the environment to produce than more traditional meat sources.
Ummm, enjoy!

I like raw beef and onions with salt and pepper on rye bread....everyone says it's dangerous to eat it, but I've eaten it all my life and I'm not...wait, maybe that explains it!

Roma tomatoes, sliced and sprinkled with onion salt, or I may just eat them whole.
I also love any kind of canned seafood except oysters.
And Chili Cheese Fritos are Awesome.

I cannot think of anything that qualifies as particularly weird, so I'll opt for something a friend eats - raw hamburger meat.
