What is the weirdest thing you've ever tried?
 
And please don't say oyster or sea urchin or Mickey D's fries with mayo. I'm talking about real stuff here.

Mine is liquor soaked with rats. Yup. It's a healing drink in China. I was young and I didn't see the jar and was given to me by my grandpa. And compared to that, snake liquor seems like nothing. Whatever didn't kill me makes me strong. :)

What's yours?

  • Alligator
  • Rocky Mountain Oysters
  • Durian

Live maggots

(My Dad took me fishing when I was very little and showed them to me. Apparantly I was very quick:))

Rattlesnake
Armadillo
Pickled mangoes (the worst of the three by far)

A plastic picnic fork (by the way of a drunken bet). Not the worst thing I have tasted...

Cheers,

I eat dog from time to time and ate a balut (duck abortion) one time when I was too drunk to care. In Thailand I ate some insect street food also.

Bull testicle.

I was a little kid and my Mom told me to eat it. So I've only been told I've had them.

OP's title is misleading.

After reading the complete post. I learned he meant: "What's the wierdest substance you've ingested??

Answer: Stuff I purchased on the streets of HK and BKK.

BTW this would be my answer if the question referred to non-food.

A friend on mine had Balut in the Philippines, it looks pretty terrible: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balut
