What weird or exotic foods have you eaten?

Pig's brain-tasted like old flavorless gum (I was in Spain and this was considered a delicacy by my host family.)
cow intestines-not bad, but it looked nasty (same Spanish family)
escargog-they were really really salty
frog's legs-tasted like chicken
ostrich meat-very tasty

Eel sushi. Yum.

Venison. Some people consider venison weird/exotic, others think of Bambi and get upset... I view it as population control (we have a huge deer problem here) and revenge (for the deer that destroyed my roses a few years ago ). Venison is actually pretty tasty.

Venison is pretty good when cooked the right way. It's not something that I'd go out of my way to eat, but it's not bad at all.

Otherwise, I haven't tried much else. I'm pretty adventurous in what I eat, within certain limits.

Ostrich meat? Gross.

I heard that Hog Head cheese and pigs brains are the same thing.

ETA: I tried forg legs but I couldn't finish them because I couldn't get pass the look of the legs themselves.
