August 23, 20179 yr Elk - Awesome Turtle - in soup was ok Squirrel - ok Rabbit - good Quail - excellent Alligator - Good Escargot (snails) - Awesome in lots and lots and lots of garlic melted butter
August 23, 20179 yr I've tired gator, quail, pheasant, rabbit, squirel, and maybe a couple others. They were edible but personally, so long as beef, pork, or chicken is available, I'll probably stick with those.
August 23, 20179 yr From the ocean, fried sea horse, sea anemone and something called a gooeyduck. Horrible. I challenge Andrew Zimmern to try deep fried sea horse. It would make a billy goat puke. From land, I've had ostrich and rattlesnake, the former was good, the latter not so much. I've also eaten some bugs, usually while intoxicated, but puked every time.
August 23, 20179 yr I eat lamb regularly, not sure if that is exotic or not. I made yacht tale a couple of years ago. Has any ever eaten Cicadas? I've heard stories but have never met anyone that actually did it.
August 23, 20179 yr Goat , Raccoon , Eel , Groundhog , Frogs , Turtle , Bear ( yuk) and one that I'd guess very few if any have had , fresh Ceviche with what the locals in Mexico - Cozumel - call sea cockroach , its called Chitin , clings to rocky shorelines , you pry them off with a sharp knife , rinse off , soak in fresh water and pry the shell away and mince into fresh ceviche ( lime, garlic, tomato and cilantro ) . Actually didnt have much flavor .
August 23, 20179 yr Rabbit, ostrich, bison, goat and like cat from the looks of some of the food from a now closed Chinese restaurant I ate at once...
August 23, 20179 yr Back in the mid 70's I ate some things in the Holmes High School cafeteria that were alleged to be meat products but didn't look like anything I'd ever seen before. So, I'll go with Sasquatch and unicorn. Classic. Thanks for the hardy laugh.
August 23, 20179 yr I highly recommend shark. Never had Shark I liked , too firm , too ?? ? too unmatched to frying and just not good
August 23, 20179 yr Elk - Awesome Turtle - in soup was ok Squirrel - ok Rabbit - good Quail - excellent Alligator - Good Escargot (snails) - Awesome in lots and lots and lots of garlic melted butter Add shark steak and bison to Maniacs list which I enjoyed all of...I'll also add wild turkey. The breast is the only redeemable part and is best cut into strips, sauteed and deep fried!!!
August 23, 20179 yr Never had Shark I liked, too firm, too ?? ? too unmatched to frying and just not good On the grill for 10 minutes both sides and "chow down". I will admit, there has been a time or two that I've got a bad piece that was "firm" as you put it, but far and few between.
August 23, 20179 yr Not really exotic, but while I was in England I tried a staple of their traditional breakfast, Black Pudding, which is fried pig's blood. It's served looking like a blackish sausage patty a little on the crispy side. It wasn't bad, and if I hadn't been told what it was I would've just thought that it was a burnt sausage patty, yet I still couldn't completely get past knowing what it was, so I only barely finished about half of it. [ATTACH]63436[/ATTACH] That looks like eggs and brownies to me. :lol2:
August 23, 20179 yr Alligator. It was so blackened, I couldn't tell it from anything else blackened. Also been to game. Had ground up kangaroo, or so it said on the menu. Couldn't really tell My brother-in-law has tried to smoke gator several times. Keeps turning out like rubber. Not close to eatable.
