I've had chicken feet. All cartilage.

Jelly fish surprised me how crunchy it was. That was a weird one.

Fermented seal and preserved whale from some Native Alaskans I worked with

I picked up about gallon of Beganos (oyster drill snails) off the power poles by the Leeville bridge. We boiled them like crawfish, they really good. Just dont mess up and ear the "Tabasco sack" on them.

I had a cookie with a cricket on it at the Insectarium in New Orleans.

And a cup full of worms with cajun seasoning.

In Southeast Asia.

I got a raw salted chicken sushi.

Honest assessment... Tasted fine and I had to fight my gag reflex.

While there, a Ukrainian guy was buying local fish from outside singapore, packing them in salt for a few weeks in tropical heat, and then carried them around for snacks. I agreed to try it. Motherfricker gave me the head. I almost puked.

I tried just the flesh later that day with an anejo tequila and lime juice spritzer.

Was amazing tastewise. Texture almost got me.


Durian. It smelled like beating a rotten pineapple with the rotten gut bucket of a deer. Honestly tasted like a creamy spoiled caramel. Would eat it again.
