    Yeah... I went to a chinese resturant once and had squid soup, stew, what ever it was supposed to be. I thought what the hey, I like it fried, wrong.... It was like chewing on a bicycle inner tube.

    Bad cooks is all it was. I have seen some horrible food, I work in an industrial style kitchen for scouts, and there was some piece of deer, we think, in a trashbag with freezer-burn, or uncovered pork-slices in solidified fat/grease in the freezer as well, etc- stupid summer camp.

    shark
    swordfish
    (pretty much every type of salt water and fresh water fish and shellfish)

    And growing up in SoCal with street vendors that sell food, not sure what they have in their food half the time.
    I'm missing croc, although i'm pretty sure that's about the same taste as alligator. Further I've eaten: zebra, fried locusts, emu, wildebeest, pigeon.

    Things to eat high on the list: Camel...

    I always say, if it's cookable and can be eaten I will try it (so that rules out human beings and elephants)

    Nice, I forgot to add Thai octopus soup, that was really good.

    Never had those meats, wouldn't mind trying. There are a few foods I wouldn't mind trying, like roasted bat and some others. But to have the other foods I want to try, have to travel the world, not monetarily possible right now lol


    Edit: I'm sure pigeon wouldn't be much different than dove. I keep forgetting to list many other things, like haggis which I actually like the flavor of.

    I'm not so much for spicy food, but octopus is nice...

    Not a good enough cook myself to make most of the things. I'll never do tuna again, that stuff has got like a 4-second period when it's perfect and too soon or too late and it's ruined.

    If u get the chance, zebra is really nice. A decent African restaurant will have it on the menu, same as wildebeest, emu & things like that.

    Yeah, unfortunately I think the nearest African restaurant is in Africa lol

    Also, there is the added problem of getting this new strain of HIV from what they call bush animals. There are many cases popping up in Africa of the new strain and people that are eating wild meats in restaurants or cooking it themselves are getting it from the meat.

    Try the Netherlands, there's a fair few there. And whilst you're at it, you could try space cake as well. Talking about strangest food.. Or weed tea for that matter.

    In the mid-80s of last century there was a restaurant in Brussels (Belgium) that had monkey on the menu. What they did was cook the animal, then at the table they would chop the scalp off (like you do with an egg) and then you could scoop up the brains. Apparently (never tried it myself) a gastronomic delicatesse..

    The whole think with the monkey is a delicacy in some Asian countries, and I think India if I remember correctly.

    As for the space cake or weed tea, sorry, have had hash brownies before lol
