Rattlesnake Steak - from Texas, USA
A steak made from rattle snake. It was a nasty to think about the snake, but was kind of chewy, At least they put some spices and herbs on it.
Mexican Worm Tacos - from [Central] Mexico
Fried caterpillars in a spicy, meaty tortilla anyone?... Didn't think so…. Actually not as bad when fried, But not a good snack (at least for me).
Hirnsuppe - Germany [all places in Germany]
Raw calf [baby cow] brains…. The kind of brain food you wouldn't expect.
Actually it was pretty yummy, until I asked what it was (it was in a soup) … (I'm not sure if this is the right picture)
Snake soup - Hong Kong
Snake is usually most eaten [in Hong Kong] in winter, mostly because you can drink the warm snake blood (I had wine instead…Ugh warm snake blood *shivers*).
Tasted a bit like chicken [soup] , really tough chicken with spicy broth and a glass of wine.
Giraffe - Kenya [Africa]
It actually a pretty good dish. It was very tender and had a nice taste to it (very unique).
If you visit Kenya (or near it) you've got to try it (unless you don't eat meat)
Crocodile - Kenya [again]
It may be a white meat, unique too, but it's not as good. For a white meat it's rich and heavy. I had it roasted over hot coals (on a split), and it was pretty good.
“ Hundred Year egg “ - China
It was a thinly sliced hardboiled egg, but the yellow was BLACKand the white was
Yellow-greenish[like a light green grass color]…. Ugh, it was as bad as it looked.
Disgusting, more like hundred year OLD egg.
Boiled Electric Eel - Ecuador
Cut up chunks of eel, boiled in soup. I The inside was real bony , the outside was slimy and tasted muddy…I like the snake soup MUCH better.
Kava - Fiji
It's actually a drink. Its nasty, tastes like wet cement. It's made of crushed Kava root and water. It's kind of white like milk. Eww, I might actually like the warm snake blood more, and that's saying something.
Clay - Africa
No tricks, its actual (though very carefully) dug up clay that Africans eat. It's very rich and mineral like, similar to a mineral tablet. I didn't try it, but my friend claims he did (pfft yeah right). I saw this while eating crocodile (not the same time, but that same day). I would THINK it would taste very rugged, and chewy.
The clay is dug up and used carefully to make sure its edible, but I wouldn't go to an art store and buy it like a candy bar.
Well that concludes my documentary on weird foods (for now). Just to know, about the longest time period from eating these foods were about 4 years. At least not all of the weird stuff is gross.
Thank you for reading this, I wonder what weird food is next! (Hopefully a tasty one!) Bye! PS: If you know a weird food, pm me and I might just eat it!
