Thread: What have you eaten?

I've always liked oatmeal, but am not overwhelmed by macaroni and cheese.

Now that the wife and I are being very health conscious I eat oatmeal a lot too. No more alligator for me. Though it might actually be good for you. I never checked.I have never heard of hormone injected alligators.

I think I'm pretty adventurous when it comes to food, but not as adventurous as you are, Nick. I lost a taste for beef about 10 years ago. Admittedly at the time, the talk of CJD turned me off, but after so long, at this point I just don't have an interest in it. Although, throw anything in a natural casing, call is sausage and I'll eat it.

It drives my wife batty, but I'm a cartilage man. At home I chew the ends off of chicken bones, rib tips, etc. I like the crunch. I grew up fishing with my Dad in Lake Superior, so we'd can lake trout and salmon. I loved eating the backbone and rib bones. Canning softens them up to an al dente texture. To my wife it's like nails on a chalkboard when she hears me eating that type of stuff. But, she hasn't kicked me out yet.

Kim Chi is really tasty stuff. Fiery spicy foods are great. Stinky cheeses, mmmmmm.

Brother if it walks crawls or fly's I either have tried it or would not mind trying it under the right circumstances. I love watching No Reservations

I have eaten stuff like brain, tongue and some intestines and internal organs of common livestock (chicken, sheep/goat/deer, pigs, cattle), once had a soft-shell crab, but I'm still not comfortable with eating bugs, worms, snakes or dogs. Thought the oysters would be weird, but now I really like them.

I can diggest almost anything, but nothing I enjoyed more like eating a strange animal that lives in mud, and eats it's own feaces...

cheers,

I've eaten ants, grub worms, meal worms, crickets, grasshoppers, earth worms, an assortment of flying insetcs. All of the above were thanks to the Boy Scouts, and the older scounts paying me $5 to $10 to eat somthing.

The most dangerous thing was the local water in Iraq.

Yeah, I had an Icelandic friends at uni and he always used to joke about his 'putrid shark' although he never managed to bring any over he did bring some terrible dried white fish. When I say dry, I mean it was like eating a ball of wool - really salty and stringy and probably the most disgusting thing I have ever tried!

I think we all should go on that show "man in the wild". I think it is called. He has eaten some interesting things.
