A few more to add to my personal list:
whale (tasted a lot like rancid fat, maybe because it was canned!)
head cheese
blood sausage
picked eggs
pork rinds
prickly pear
mesquite pods
seaweed of various sorts (weird only in the USA)
Fried pickles (tried them just this last weekend, not bad!)
The following site jogged my memory and listed things that even I might want to pass on!
Ray's List of Weird and Disgusting Foods
I spoke to a friend from Singapore about trying durian...
She couldn't believe that I would want to (although she LOVES them!).
She said that fresh is MUCH better than frozen, which is what you mostly find in the USA.
She also said that she would see to it that I got a chance to try them.
Thanks (I think) to those who mentioned it on this thread.

mesquite pods

What's that like? I've used mesquite wood for barbeques but what are those pods? What kind of texture and taste?
