What is the strangest thing you ever ate?
No bug stories
I had a very weird attraction to honey mustard. I used to eat it by the spoonful.
But then someone caught mr spreading it on bread one day.
My taste buds must have been morphing into something else.
It was a phase.
But at the time my brain told me it was good.
Not now.
I guess it would have to be escargot, since the bug doesn't count.
Well if u ate a bug,
But I don't want to know;)
Before I turned vegan, I'd have to say squid was probably the most unusual thing I had ever eaten. I had this meal in a restaurant in Denver, Colorado, possibly at the Radisson Hotel. I found the texture chewy, but the taste reminded me of potato. That was the only time in my life that I had it, but the memory remains.
Of course that's all relative, but probably the strangest food from a Western point of view is guinea pig. It's a delicacy here in Peru and guinea pigs are raised like livestock to be eaten. When a friend offers it to you, it would be an insult to turn it down. We've had it fried, roasted and stewed. I like it the best fried. : )
Your honey mustard story is funny! I know what you mean about getting obsessed with certain foods.
You can try honey mustard on a guinea pig!
Since i am from the south i'mma have to say chitterlings(or pig stomach)is the strangest thing i have ate and still do eat from time to time if they are clean right
Not so strange. The Italians eat cow stomach;)

There's that old saying about a sucker being born every minute and I have to say, I'm a little surprised by some of the things that people will actually spend money on. Some of the purchases made through my Hubs (which were not on my Hubs) are just very odd. The most memorable to date are:The...

Yesterday evening, when we walked outside to the car, I could smell a skunk. In my front yard! I've never been that close to one before, as far as I know, other than roadkill. A few hours later the smell had dissipated. What's the oddest thing that has happened to you recently?
