WQ#18: Weird Culinary Delights

This is a sequel to the WQ #17 Ugh. about whether to continue eating or to abandon eating lasagna with pig’s brain in it.

So the WQ#18 is related to this and here it goes:

What were the worst or weird food (for you) that you have ever eaten? What were your reactions?
I never got to answer last week's question, though my answer is I'd probably eat one last bite then say, "I'm full." I probably won't eat pig's brain willingly, but since I already did, let's just chalk it up to experience.

Worst or weird food that I've eaten? Hmm. Geez, that's a bit tough for some reason. I haven't really eaten anything that made me throw up. I've eaten snails, frogs, snakes and even (and I am very sorry to say this), a turtle. They don't taste bad, but then I guess it was how they were cooked.

I don't willingly eat liver, but I do eat pig and chicken intestines (isaw for the win!). I don't eat barbequed pig's blood, but occassionally, I will eat dinuguann, especially if there's nothing else to eat. Oh, the first time I ate chicken legs and pigs feet was odd, and between the two, I'd go for the chicken.

Balut? Well, I like the soup, and the yellow part, but when it comes to the chick, you can have it. Cheers!

  2. Oh yes. The snails were due to my grandmother, who made it look so good. Even cooked, it has a slightly bitter aftertaste and can be gritty if not cleaned properly. The snake and the rabbit were mostly because of a team-building activity, as well as the turtle. I regret the turtle most of all, but it wasn't until after I ate it did I learn what it was. :(

  3. Snails are ok with me, even the French like these escargot. I even have a post about it in my other blog. But snake? rabbit? and even turtle?

    Balut is a favorite n our household. The children eat everything except that white part.

    Thanks for answering the WQ. WQ is being thought of right now.

    Have a great weekend :)
