What is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?

I saw a news story about Six Flags yesterday. They are doing a promotion for their Fright Fest. If someone will eat a LIVE Madagascar Hissing Cockroach you can go to the front of the line!! PETA is upset, of course. I can't even imagine. I can't even watch Fear Factor. Why would anyone want to subject theirselves to that!! Anyway, got me to thinking... What is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten? I know some of you have visited or lived in other countries.

I have had turtle, alligator and corsican sheep(it was delish!)

 

wow, yea cockroach are used alot, maybe because there are so many down in the south I don't know.

squirrel is the grosses or weirdest thing I ate.

 

I am too much of a chicken to try anything weird like that. I used to watch Fear Factor, but it got way too "out there" for me!

 

My kids make fun of me because if they say the wrong thing at supper I get sick. Don't dare mention that my food looks like something gross or I am DONE! The strangest thing I ever ate was my sister's cooking! Just kidding. But it was my mother in laws cooking. She made a pie and accidentally put chili powder instead of cinnamon in it. GROSS! Turns out she was in the early stages of dementia. Sadly she didn't know anyone by the time she died. Beth

 

I have had squirrel. It was really greasy. Yuck!

 

This isn't really strange I guess just different to me but when I was in Colorad on vacation I had a buffalo burger and was really good. My husband says that Alligator and snake are really good but I have never eaten those. Oh and I had goat meat one time when I was a kid. I thought the meat tasted weired and my parents didn't tell me what it was until after I had eaten. Yuck.

 

I got tricked into eating rabbit once.... I know its not unusual to some but I didn't like being tricked.


I like eating potato chips with ketchup.

 

I am all for animal rights, but getting upset over a stupid ugly cockroach? Please! Personally, I'm more sickened at the thought of eating one than killing one. If I saw one I'd proably smoosh it. Gross! I can't even watch Fear Factor without thinking about hurling!

I've tried octopus before. It was pretty disgusting.

 

I've had squid, buffalo, and antelope. Yum to all!

 

Squid and snails. My husband keeps wanting to go squirrel hunting, but fortunately he hasn't got anything yet! I can't quite bring myself to eat squirrel.

 

My parents were born and raised in the country and they swear that no matter how it is cooked rabbit, squirel, and duck are nasty!! His mother (my grandma) used to cook those things all the time when money was tight and they had to go out and kill there dinner. He said he is glad they never had to eat oppossum. Now can you imagine what that would taste like?!?!

 

When I was in college my friend and I used to make peanut butter, jam, cheddar cheese, pickle and onion sandwiches. YUM! :lol:

 

When my now husband and I were dating he would come over to my barracks after he got off work because it was quieter (not just that but they were not allowed female visitors in there barracks). One evening he asked me to make him sandwich. Well, we hadn't been dating long and that rubbed me wrong so I decided to make the sandwich so off the wall he wouldn't ask again. I made it with bologna, cottage cheese, and hot sauce. Well, he asked for a second one and I gave up! The man will eat anything. I guess it's a combo of growing up in the Carribean and doing some special forces training in the military. Then again, that sandwich may sound good to some!!

 

My friend and I used to eat peanut butter, lettuce and mayo sandwiches....I liked them at the time, but I don't know why! LOL

 

My husband eats mayo and PB sandwiches. BLAH!!!

 

all the wild stuff taste like chicken right. That is what I was told all the time GROSS

 

I craved peach jelly and mayo sandwiches when I was prego.

Kris, I dont think it all taste like chicken I love chicken and deer meat, both way different. I think someone tried to trick you

 

Kachelsi, do you have any good venison recipes? Just in case my "Great Hunter" actually shoots something this year, lol!

 

This is a great site for game.The peppercorn venison is my personal fav recipe for deer. As far as ground venison I cook it in spaghetti or whatever same as I would beef and gl to your gh

I think if we were all "hungrier" we wouldn't think those things were so gross! God Bless the farmes huh???
