Yup love em. Marylanders are big on the oyster LOL! I still remember my dad conning me into eating a raw one in Lexington Market in Baltimore when I was 10. LOVE EM. There's a restaurant in Rehoboth Beach, DE called Fins that has THE best raw bar I've ever been to. DH and I randomly found it on our honeymoon while looking for Dogfish Head..........yum I will never forget that. And they HAVE to be served with mingionette........none of that half assed cocktail sauce LOL!
Other weird things I like.....
1) Tripe-both in pho and a tripe soup DH makes with ham shank, split peas, beef broth, lentils and onions...............YUMMY YUMMY
2) beef tendon-in pho-its a bit of a textural thing. Kind of like eating a harder version of beef flavored jello
3) ostrich- we bought some ground ostrich at our local co op once. Made a VERY tasty meatloaf with it
4) Foie Gras-LOVE-even thought I have somewhat of a moral objection to it
5) raw beef-I've never had carpaccio, but for some reason, I have always REALLY liked raw hamburger meat. Everyone I know thinks Im disgusting LOL
6) Frogs legs-tasted like a crab and a chicken had a baby
7) Escargots-YUMMY
8) Someone before mentioned ceviche? I LOOOOOVE ceviche. We have a Spanish/Mexican restaurant here in town that has a kick ass ceviche. Love it
9) And weirdly enough, I really prefer eating my fish raw a la sushi style. Fish just looses something for me when its cooked, unless its fish and chips LOL!
