If Your Partner's Mum Serves You Any Of These, What Would You Do? by Nobody: 8:54am On Jul 05, 2015 |
Meeting Your partner's family for the first time and you were served these, which one will you eat? It’s time to take a trip around the world and delve into all the weird foods our species like to chow down. Unfortunately, the world isn’t only full of those tasty breakfasts we spoilt you with a while back. Source: http://www.hostelworld.com/blog/the-50-weirdest-foods-from-around-the-world/158695 1. Shiokara, Japan Now this really does sound bad. A dish made of pieces of meat taken from a selection of sea creatures, served in a brown, viscous paste of their own salted and fermented viscera. Oh, I forgot to say, it’s all served raw. You enjoy, I’m going to grab a bucket. caracta 10 Likes 6 Shares

What's the message? That you are in Japan. Updated.... Like I said before. Am not a fan of Ftc. Anyway....I will dedicate this to njays24 and dickrider for changing from their abusive nature to tolerant , ladylike nairalanders who will learn to stop being abusive even when others opinions differ from theirs. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

2. Jing leed (Grasshoppers), Thailand/Africa. So, yes, this is a big old grasshopper seasoned with salt, pepper power and chilli and fried in a big wok. Tastes a little like hollow popcorn skin… except a little juice squirts out when you bite into it… nice. 26 Likes 7 Shares

3. Wasp crackers, Japan. Yep, you guessed it, it’s a biscuit filled with wasps. Think chocolate chip cookies, only the insects replace the choccy chips. Apparently the digger wasp, which the biscuit contains, has a pretty mean sting. I wish your tongue good luck. 4 Likes 7 Shares

4. Fried spider, Cambodia. Fried spider is a regional delicacy popular in the Cambodian town of Skuon, prepared by marinating it in MSG, sugar and salt and then frying it in garlic. Apparently it has more meat on it than a grasshopper, but also has brown sludge in the abdomen, which consists of mainly innards, eggs and excrement. Yum.

5. Beondegi (Silkworms), Korea. Mmm, lovely silkworm. Simply boiled or steamed and lightly seasoned, this is popular snack all over Korea and usually sold from street vendors. Apparently they taste like wood, if you’ve ever tried wood…? 5 Likes 3 Shares

6. Escargots à la bourguignonne, France. Snails cooked in a sauce of white wine, garlic, butter and parsley served in their shells. Said to have a similar consistency to mussels or clams, though I found them to be pretty rubbery. Perhaps best to try in a decent, reasonably priced restaurant rather than the satay version down a back street in Hong Kong. 28 Likes 1 Share

7. 100 or 1000 year old egg/century egg/millenium egg, China. It’s neither a century nor a millennium old, but this egg is pretty rotten. After being preserved in a mixture of clay,ash and quicklime for a few months, the yolk turns a dark green or even black and slimy while the white has turns to a dark brown translucent jelly. Apparently it smells of strongly of sulphur and ammonia, but tastes like a hardboiled egg. 1 Like 3 Shares

8. Dog, Korea, China, and Vietnam. Ondo&Calabar(Nigeria). But this always breaks my heart. As someone who had a dog growing up, who was part of the family and treated as a little four legged sister, it’s tough to see dog carcasses roasted beyond recognition or locked in those tight little cages, waiting for the slaughter. But then I eat all the animals we deem fit for farming over here, so this one is going to turn into a long argument. While not widely consumed in Korea these days, dog meat is big money in Vietnam, leading to a massive increase in the stealing of family pets. 23 Likes 5 Shares

9. Frogs legs, France, Southeast Asia and other. Basically the back end and back legs of a frog, grilled, baked, fried or stewed. With the texture of chicken with a very faint taste of fish, it’s one of my favourite kind of meats. Try it with chilli as part of Cantonese cuisine orroasted and served with a garlic and cream sauce. 5 Likes 1 Share

11. Guinea pig, South America. A strange one, because again I see this as kind of wrong. Yet I know over here we use guinea pigs in all sorts of medical tests and experiments, which is far worse. Typically served whole and roasted or in a casserole, guinea pig is said to have a similar flavour to rabbit. 4 Likes 1 Share

12. Balut, Philippines. A developing duck embryo that’s boiled alive in its shell. As well as sounding incredibly harsh, it looks incredibly unappetising. Still, it’s a common street food and is usually served with beers. Can’t say I have the stomach for it. 6 Shares

13. Turtle soup, China, Singapore and United States. Made using the meat, skin and innards of the soft-shell turtle in East Asia or the snapping turtle in the United States, this is considered something of a Chinese delicacy. However, after seeing turtles slaughtered in the Hong Kong wet markets I vowed I’d never eat this dish. 4 Likes 2 Shares

14. Southern fried rattlesnake, United States. A favourite in the Southwestern United States, it’s said to taste a little like frogs legs. Experts advise boiling the meat offthe bones before dipping in egg and covering in seasoned salt mix, flour and breadcrumbs. Deep fat fry and munch away. 1 Like
