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

One of the more common ways squid is eaten in Korea, is that it is slit open and gutted, and then laid flat on a wicker rack in the sun to dry. No cooking at all, not commercially dried, not salt cured. Just dried in the sun.

Then the tentacles are cut off, and the body is cut into tentacle sized strips. You can actually buy a cup full of it across the street from on of the movie theaters in Busan, and take it into the movie with you instead of popcorn.

Many of the restaurants I went to there also served the same dried squid jullianed and covered in a sweet red bean sauce as a side dish.

Ah Korean Squid Jerky, I've had it many times. Always seemed to impress the locals when an American would eat this stuff.

Now I would be glad to try this. I was born in Lima but was brought to the U.S. at an early age. This and a tall refreshing glass of chicha morada would be good.
