I never saw monkey brains on sale. I did have locusts in Thailand too which were just like crisps really.

Are you veggie?

You are missing out on all that life has to offer (not to the animals that we eat mind you, their days are pretty numbered)

PREDOMINANT said:

No, I'm not vegetarian. I eat meat. Just not a variety.

ZombieKitten said:

You could knock these out with one night at a good French bistro.

ZombieKitten said:

All great foods! Although pheasant is not that great. Snails are fantastic!! I always have them when I see them on a menu.

A lot of this food is perceived to be fancy and its not really. Most supermarkets stock almost anything you could imagine. Try a few "exotics" bought in this way instead of going out for dinner, it is often cheaper!!

I have tried most foods I think, and always say that I will try anything once cus you are dead a long time. A couple of unusual food that are still on my list

Dog
Foogoo

But there are loads of veggies that I have never tried, or probably even heard of!

Was this thread inspired by our little talk yesterday?

Like I said then I love fancy food, so it's just too bad that I can't afford it. I make sure I buy foie gras every time I go to France though, since that's where the quality is the best and it's a bit less expensive.

It's really interesting that fancy food like the above is expensive mostly because it's rare or difficult and costly to produce, but could just as well have been expensive simply because it's so delicious (people would be ready to pay a lot for it just for that reason). I guess we'll just have to accept that as with so many other things in the world, rarity and quality go hand in hand.

Caviar

The things JustErin and Zombie have listed. I eat some meat, but I have my limits.

Kopi Luwak



Kopi Luwak or Civet coffee is coffee made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet (a fox)...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_Luwak

not to be overly nosey, but why?

I have a friend who will only eat bad cuts of meat she will eat ground beef and sausages, but never a steak.

Tell me about it.
If I wanted shit in my coffee I would go to McDonalds.

ZombieKitten said:

No moral or religious reasons behind it.....I'm just kinda grossed out by non traditional meats.

AnckSuNamun said:

it's a shame, kangaroom meat is so much nicer than normal meat if you ever get a chance to try it, do

What does it taste like? The oddest meat I've had was deer meat....when I was little. My mom's boss brought frozen meat to her work, and she had never tried it, so one night she cooked it for us. It tastes just like roast beef. I eat roast beef, but when it comes to deer meat, it's a psychological block.
