Eel maybe? Is escargot weird? How 'bout pho full of mystery meat?
I think some of the weirdest, most bizarre foods I've come in contact with were named perfectly normal things at Chinese buffets, e.g., "chicken" which I can see through when I hold it up to the light. Also, dim sum at a certain restaurant in the Asian District in OKC can be an adventure.
Considering the fact that most of us omnivores are big fans of highly processed meats such as hot dogs, at least intellectually, I have a tough time judging any other culture for its bizarre cuts of meat. In the Philippines, I understand chicken anus is popular... but I can't judge--I've had McDonald's chicken mcnuggets.
