Whale meat. Kind of like raw bacon but fattier, with a fishy taste.

In 1982?

surprise!
 

Not a wierd food, but a weird combination: a few months ago hubby and I enjoyed a tasting menu at a D.C. restaurant. One of the items was presented to us with the suggestion that we eat it all in one bite. One of those large ceramic spoons, like a chinese soup spoon containing a piece of white chocolate, a little trout roe, and some grated fresh wasabe. Upon putting it in my mouth, I said "wow!" out loud. The white chocolate was warm and soft, and together the flavors were pretty interesting.

Balut for me, too. I had that while drinking in Boracay. Wasn't so bad. I've tried various snails, worms etc. in Asia. Alligator meat in the south, but that doesn't really seem so exotic to me. I tried Rocky Mountain Oysters, actually prepared as a soup. And my all time favorite, squirrel brain.

Carbon paper.

Glass pipet, on a dare.

There was a vegetarian Buddist place in chinatown in SF where they tried to make tofo/wheat gluten items to resemble meat items.They dye the thiings is outrageously bright hues.It was prtty horrible.
Did try a 1000 year egg-disgusting I promptly rushed to the toilet and vomited.

That's basically a spoiled egg that has been preserved, right? I've seen that but have never felt tempted to try it. I'd probably give it a try if I was drunk. :cool:

Witchetty grubs in central Australia. Almost edible when cooked if you are hungry enough but raw, they are extraordinarily unpleasant.
I've eaten snake, which is fine, also honey ants which are nice.

Sheep testicles in Shiraz, Iran. I thought those things in the deli/butcher case were :eek: eye balls, got the second word right! Only one bite but that was 30 years ago.

I love Morton Bay Bugs. Yummy.

Grilled octopus leg (pretty chewy, about a meter long) in Korea.
Dog -- though unconsciously, it's really like very tender beef.

Anybody had Durian on a plane??? :p

No, they're not spoiled. 1000 year old egg is just preserved duck eggs. They are not really 1000 year old, and not that disgusting. It's a acquired taste though. I love slices of it in my congee. If you can handle stinky blue cheese, you can probably do this.
