We have a nutria spaghetti at the hunting camp every once in a while.
I wasn't too excited at first but it's really good.

I once worked with a guy that brought in a platter of fried squirrel nuts one day. Didn't try them but from the size of that platter he had to have been the best squirrel hunter I ever.

Weirdest I have tasted is fermented (rotten) seal flipper. Natives bury it on the beach til it's ripe. Village folk eat some nasty stuff.

Ate in in a sauce picante once. Wasn't bad at all. I'd eat it again.

I saw that on a history channel show one time...No way I could eat anything that is rotting!

I ate armadillo. A guy in Montana was going to get me some mountain lion but he never came through.
Nothing else that hasn't been listed here yet. Nutria ain't bad. Cooked in a sauce picante you don't notice what it is. To people outside the south squirrel is a very strange thing to eat.

Andrew Zimmern was here last summer and he spent time in Kake, which is native village. They had him eating stink eggs and stink heads. Stink eggs are fermented salmon roe, and stink heads are fish heads buried in the beach for a few weeks to get ripe. He said it was the worst thing he had ever tasted.
Fermented flipper or beaver tail are the worst I have tasted, and muktuk is close behind. I would never eat anything like that again.
With so many good foods available I just don't need to do that crap anymore which is another reason to stay away from the village.

What was the original reason for preparing these dishes this way, to "preserve" them? Because that kinda defeats the purpose if it's rotten.

Years ago some buddies and I cooked a freshly killed bobcat over an open camp fire. Tougher than boot leather does not describe how tough the meat was. Then the taste was similar to what I would imagine an overweight aerobics instructors vagina would be like after a week with no bath.

Been done and is being done now. It's called Dead Meat on the Sportsman's Channel. Good show. He goes in and hunts, fishes, traps, whatever with the locals then they take back the "game" to a local restaurant or many times a bar, cook it up and make other locals try it.

His old show was called "hunt, fish, cook". It was okay at times but really low budget.

If I were going to do it, I would tap into OT money and do that shat right! With that being said, you might get a flash of hookers and blow in the background from time to time during the show

Could be to hide them. Usually put in the intertidal and it's buried by water half the day. Some reason it's now some cultural tradition and I suppose some of the natives have developed a taste for it.
I guess it's no different than the fermented herring people in Sweden and Norway eat.

I just cant imagine ever attempting to eat something like that...much less acquiring a taste for it.
Dont get me wrong...in a survival situation, I think that I could eat a skunks butthole but as far as just eating some rotten shat for the hell of it....no way!

They got a bounty on those big bastards at the camp. Some extreme measures have been discussed to get one in a pot.

His family has a place on Prince of Wales Island in SE Ak. He's hunted there, took the food back to Brooklyn and had a dinner party.

For a Georgia/SC boy I've tried a lot of normal game but I have never had squirrel or rabbit. I want to go rabbit hunting and try some rabbit soon. What does squirrel taste like? Is it worth cleaning them and cooking the tree rats?
