My favorite salad of all time was at a Sushi restaurant and consisted of seaweed, octopus legs, and tiny shrimps. YUMMIE!!!

A big juicy mooseburger......with cheese.

[super175]

I got some reeeal stories to tell in this category...

[dep]

how can you think about a thing like food when there's cheese being discussed?

and remember -- moose lips stink cheese.

How about boiled duck eggs, with an almost duck inside of it?

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

Well, it's not exactly exotic but I discovered it from some friends when I was a teenager. It's peanut butter and bacon sandwich. MAHHHHHHHVELOUS........honest.

P.S. - Best on toasted white bread.

Black bear cutlets, yummy, have to eat them hot though, its a greasy meat that hardens when cold.

Alagator is good too.

Beavertail steaks fry up good, make excellent gravy. Not unlike the national food of Texas -- chicken-fried steak, with cream gravy.

Armadillo makes a decent stew barbecue, similar to pulled pork.

And, yes, rattlesnake does taste like chicken (white meat).

[correctthought]

Kabanosi are great too.

[Focault's Pendulum]

I once ate a bird.

Sushi that consisted entirely of salmon roe (fish eggs).

Sinigang, which is very tasty, consists of tamarind flavoring in a soup like broth to which is added boiled pork, hot pepper, string beans and spinach - very yummy!

People think I'm lying, but a peanut-butter-and-dried-onion samwich is the bomb. So is a cold spagetti-sauce samwich, cold meatloaf-horseradish-sauce samwich, or even the hobo-gumbo samwich (meatloaf, peanut-butter, soynut, beansprout and mayonaisse) - which must be constructed at 2 AM or later to qualify as a true work of art.

Of course, if you want to keep it simple and you are truly poverty stricken, the plain mayonaisse samwich can't be beat. If you even remotely think any of these sound good, then you need to visit "Recipes for the Culinarily Challenged", where you can find such sure-fire gut wrenchers as "Beer Flakes" and "Engine Block Burrito"...

When I was in Korea for four months in 1988, I ate every manner of food that grows or swims in the sea. Also, with every meal, Koreans eat rice (not weird) and kim chi (weird, but good--fermented cabbage, etc., in hot red pepper paste). The weirdest thing I ate in Korea--just once--was . . . dog!

While I was growing up, every Christmas Eve Grandma Henrickson made a traditional Swedish dinner. The main course was lutfisk, a bland, gelatinous whitefish, served with a cream sauce. (Lutfisk is made gelatinous by soaking it for several days in lye!)

I actually like lutfisk! For most people, though, lutfisk is "the piece of cod that passes all understanding."

Wasabi peas!

Not that I want to encourage you - but do you know what scrapple is? Also, I read an article once about the 10 worst foods - the one I remember of the 10, was described thusly: "Nothing you have ever eaten has prepared you for the horror that is Clam Jerky."

[Joe 6-pack]

Also some interesting stuff here.

I know it sounds awful, but at any DIM-SUN spot in the world you can get duck feet. They are usually braised in a dark sweet and sour sauce then steamed. Put a little bit of that Vietnamese chilly oil on it and it is GREAT! Only thing is they are mostly bone, so it is an artform trying not to look rude spitting 'em out!

I'm a tripe freak---------Sicilian Style!

[LarryLied]

Not that usual but it is seasonal and not found everywhere: shad roe. Sauted in bacon fat (or butter) with lemon slices. The consistency of caviar but not salty and with a vague lobster/shrimp taste. Forget canned or frozen.
