Unusual food

What unusual food have you eaten ?

Not much for me .... just turtle, frogs, iguana and crocodile ... just to name a few.


:D

None, I think.

If I some day travel to Iceland, I will try the local hakarl.

Preparation:
 dig a hole in the ground
 catch a shark
 throw the shark in the hole and let it rot there for three months
 dig it up and hang it on a wall
 leave it there for another three months
 eat raw

The following is copied from the net:

On season 2's Iceland episode of Travel Channel's Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern, Andrew Zimmern described the smell as reminding him of "some of the most horrific things I've ever breathed in my life," but said the taste was not nearly as bad as the smell. Nonetheless, he did note that hákarl was hardcore food and not for beginners.

Well, I didn't start this thread :D

The most unusual food I ever saw was definitely no gourmet delicacy: My aunt, notorious for creative cooking, brought a cake to a family gathering. The frosting was yellow and looked delicious...until she said, "I didn't have any yellow food coloring, so I used mustard."
