Thread: What's the weirdest thing you have eaten?

I'd never heard of scrapple until I lived in Pennsylvania for a time. It took me a while to learn how to cook and eat it properly, but it's really good if made correctly. Taylor ham is another item that's hard to find outside of that corner of the country.

If you think Taylor ham is good you should try turner ham (sugar cured country ham). A local place here has Taylor, Turner, and "city" ham for sandwiches. And a sign explaining the differences for the not so local folk.

Lutefisk, I eat most anything once, and once was enough with Lutefisk. I enjoy most all Norwegian/Scandinavian food, but you can keep Lutefisk. About the only thing that comes to mind right now are some ARVN freeze dried rations we somehow came to posses, scrawny fish heads and rice. Oh, maybe some homemade rice wine given me by some Montagnards as a thank you. What made it special was the glass bottle. Not easy for them to source. They had a little drinking game where you all sat around in a circle, a bowl with water, and a stick with a small branch straight down suspended across the bowl. They filled up the bowl to the cross member stick with rice wine, and passed a straw. You were expected to suck the rice wine off the top to clear the down branch. Just kept going around the circle. Ever had a rice wine hangover?

I've had Jellyfish. that's weird. Endless sushi bar stuff still isn't odd but sea urchin is rank! I don't consider things like venison, elk, blood sausage and mince meat pie weird.

Thinly sliced cold pig's ear and stir fried jellyfish when I was on a buisness trip. The jellyfish was really good, although a strange texture. Wasn't fond of the pig's ear, but had to try it.

I am not really adventurous when it comes to food, but I like to drink the juice of a can of canned mushrooms. I have been told that that makes me weird.
