I am eating a sandwhich with tongue on it, somehow it is rather rubbery.. Anyone else eats tongue?

How about horse, does anyone eat the meat of horse? I think it taste rather good on a sandwhich, I never had a horse steak though..

So any unusual things you eat?

there is a variety of salami in our country which is supposedly made from horse meat. Personally I like it but I can't really tell if it's from horse or not.

While it is vaguely interesting to note that you like tongue (yes, a bad joke), I couldn't possibly eat that. YUCK!

About the most disguting thing I eat is mass-produced processed food.

In The Netherlands we have a joke when someone is eating such food: "What is the difference between you and that sausage?" "The sausage contains more brains than you do" [:D]

No doubt, it's scrapple.

"But what parts of the hog go into the creation of scrapple? After the ham, bacon, chops and other cuts of meat are taken from the butchered pig - what remains are fixings for scrapple - including the meat scraped off the head. Scrapple may contain pork skin, pork heart, pork liver, pork tongue - even pork brains. Those faint of palate needn't venture any further.
"

That's like Australian meat pies. I think the law demands only about 25% normal meat now. The rest is guts, lungs, hooves, snouts, eyeballs, and all the other spare parts from the abatoir floor.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to stuff sausages in my ears...

You should read "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair. There is a nice passage in there about sausage making. Evidently, it was very expensive to turn the machinery off and on. If a worker fell into the works it was just a free source of meat for the packing company.

Ya know, Monique. You were talking in another thread about something you were cooking up (maybe you mentioned a couple of dishes) and I was thinking "Wow. That sounds good. She sounds like a pretty good cook." Then, when we started talking about Ivan and me taking a trip to Europe, I thought "Cool. Maybe if we can get together with Monique, we can talk her into cooking up something yummy for us."

Never mind. [:D]

I could eat raw oysters until I dropped. I eat escargots in any way, shape or form. Frog legs taste like sweet chicken, but I could only eat one, cuz I kept thinking of my pet frogs I had as a kid.

Yeah, those are chicken feet, usually marinated in some stuff.. the point is basically to pull the tendons and ligament off the bone, it is very rubbery in texture.. it is very hard to eat too, so it is actually used as a television snack (I've been told), so you can chew away on it for a long time :)

Wait. THAT'S the way they look when you EAT them??? They're not cooked up in a lovely sauce that somewhat disguises the fact that there are several CHICKEN FEET sitting on your dinner/snack plate?? OK, well... I'm having some second thoughts about THIS particular adventure. [o)]

I've eaten blood sausage with tongue. I've eaten tripe, not particularly fond of it.

I did NOT eat the bull testacles however (rocky mountain oysters).

My sick-o step-brother-in-law actually threw some slugs in blender and slapped it on some bread for a slug sandwich - which he ate for the top prize in a local radio contest "What would YOU eat for $5000.00"?

4. Almost all reptiles and insects
5. The bodies of dead animals
6. Halal animals which are not slaughtered according to the Islamic Law.
7. Wine, Ethyl Alcohol, and Spirits.

I eat a lot of "disgusting" food you've listed above, including tongue of a pig, organs of animals (everything inside a pig, a cow and a chicken), deep fried baby pigeon, chicken legs, a bird's head, a fish's head, blood (usually pig's blood), frogs and snakes. My brother once swollowed an uncooked gall bladder of a snake. I also eat raw oysters and sashimi (Japanese food, mainly uncooked seafood). I really find sushi with a big piece of wasabi inside disgusting. I usually lose courage eating sushi with big piece of wasabi inside.

Yes, they are very very good. Don't let the look fool you, is very good Dim Sun(Cantonese word for "Morning Snacks" or "Breakfast.")

Chinese don't cook weird stuff, you just never seen them before, but when you taste them, is very good... Trust our civilization, 5000 years of history, much longer than most other modern countrys.

Meteor! - is menudo Mexican or do you have a similar soup in Spain? (Do you live in Barcelona? I wanna see Barcelona!!)
I think that, what it gets down to, is - there is really no such thing as 'disgusting' food. It all depends on what kind of food you are raised on. 'Disgusting' to one person is a 'banquet of delight' to another.

When my brother was in South Africa, he was offered monkey heads (not just brains) cooked in their own juices. Needless to say he politley ran away to the nearest steak. I think the idea of eating blood is DISGUSTING, it sounds so manky its unbelievable. Saying that, i eat chorizo and im not sure if that is a blood sausage.

In my own personal experience, i have eaten alligator steak, and like the dude said before, it does taste of chicken! I have also eaten ostrich, which was interesting. Ooh ooh and octopus tentacles...thats suckers and all!

My grand-dad ate horse in Korea which he said was lovely.

And of course as kids we have eaten worms and bugs and snot and anything lying on the ground. Snot. Now THAT is disgusting!

Though I'm Muslim but I've many friends who are Hindu!
You may know that in the Muslim world there are two EID! This is one of the most important festival of ours! Besides, Durga Puja, Holi (You may know from Movies) are their fastival! But as we are friends we enjoy both of them...they come to our houses, we go to their houses and enjoy the day with them :) Not only that there are few Christian friends of mine! I've enjoyed X-mas with them :) sing with them when they came out of church! Made fun with Santa! I played my guitar with them at night in the roof of my house!

And about food! They come to our houses and when we offer them our menu they just avoid their forbidden things! Mainly I've found Hindu friends in it, but Chiristian friends had no problem! I don't know actually is there anything forbidden to eat in the Christian Religion???

Mom got you to eat a LOT of that disgusting stuff she liked, didn't she? I wouldn't TOUCH anything called a GIZZARD. Sounded too much like lizard. You can have the pickled pigs feet, too. I'll stick with the lobster...

I'll stick with the lobster...Yeah, the only thing Mom ever fed me was gizzards and pickled tripe. :cry: You always got the lobster, and ice cream, and fine dark Belgian chocolate!!! How many nights did I sit alone in the closet licking the chocolate wrappers you threw on the floor? :cry:
