What is the weirdest food you have eaten?

[Pabo]

As many are from different parts of the world, what are the some of the weirdest foods you have eaten.

 

Personally, I will give most things a go, unless it is purely disgusting. Now I being from Australia, we may have some things here that you may not get elsewhere. 

 

I have eaten kangaroo (which I had the other night as shish kebabs on the BBQ), crocodile, emu, wallaby (similar to kangaroo but much more off putting - perhaps it was how it was cooked), Witchetty grubs (cooked and raw), snake over hot coals (very similar to eel).

Yeah me to, when riding my motorcycle with an open faced helmet back in the 60's!

Some baked sugar loaded dough labeled donuts, but did not taste like real donuts whatsoever. My tummy thought it was weird LOL 🤣

A huge sea snail in Japan.  It was plated up very appealingly, but ….. Not a fan, tasted like rubber, but the dipping sauce was nice. Didn’t want to offend, so I chewed on that piece of rubber until I could finally swallow it, smiling as I did so. The rest of their cuisine was scrumptious.

Possibly not very 'PC' but I had shark fin. Horrible stuff. However the Chinese family that procured it - especially for me - could not understand why I did not devour it.
Fortunately my (American born) Chinese son-in-law bailed me out and saved ....

This is not the sweetened milk, it is simply evaporated..

Oh, but even the lactose of it is still fairly high.

Has anyone eaten groat? Maybe I have and didn't know what it was called.

 Groats - the hulled kernels of various cereal grains, such as oat, wheat, rye, and barley. Groats are whole grains that include the cereal germ and fiber-

Bulger wheat is a form of groat. I like it, but family would rather eat rice.

Haven’t really ate too many weird things but I ate baby squid once.
