Bacon Spam. It is wonderful.

Kokoretsi. A dish I had in Greece. Liver, kidney, and other organs and meat wrapped in intestines and cooked on a spit like a large kabob. Spiced with garlic, bay leaves, oregano, and more. Deeeeicious. Everyone threw their portion on my plate when the host wasn’t looking. So the host thought they loved it, and kept putting more on their plates.

Basically there's tripe in there mixed in with raw or partially cooked beef bits.

Local Thai joint has Larb made with chicken
First time I was in there the table next to me were all eating it, I thought the commode overflowed from the smell.

Tried it on my next trip, we call it butthole chicken now. I'll try about anything twice to give it a chance, not that stuff lol.

I can actually see that being really good. A strawberry or apple jam would be good. Salty and sweet.

I like to eat just about everything and am an adventurous eater.

Love liver and other organ meats; chicken livers are my favorite. Fried chicken kidneys and such are great little poppers. I also love to see chopped up gizzards and such in my gravy!

Huge fan of tongue. Tacos lengua are my favorite by a country mile.

Love scrapple and goetta. Don't have a lot of experience with things like blood sausage, but I bet I'd be a fan.

Foie gras and other pate options are an amazing treat.

Fish eggs of any sort.

Grilled sardines are great and anchovies are a favorite too.

I'm not a huge fan of brain, but I'll eat it in the rare times I see it on a menu, just because.

The thing I don't really like is anything that is full of gristle or excessively chewy. No me gusta.

And who thinks brussels sprouts are weird? That's standard fare!

Okra -
Tripe/Menudo -
Birria (Goat) -
Some of my favorites!

homemade mayonnaise by the spoonful.

Much easier to say what I will not eat again:

Pork tendon boiled

Sea cucumber prepared in any manner

Everything else is pretty much fair game!

And now:

A snail goes in to a Nissan dealership and tells the salesman,”I want to buy a 350Z.”

Salesman says ”Sure”.

Snail ”Automatic of course!” (First laugh)
”But you have to change the Logo to 350S”

Sales guy says ”Sure - but why?”

Snail says ”When I blow away a Corvette at a stoplight, the guy says:

”WOW! Look at that S-Car-Go!”

Im sure there are more

Webfoot octopus or all kinds? You fit in fine in Korea

Woof woof? Crickets (or whatever they are serving in those street stalls. Oh, maybe silk worms or something like that?)?

I've had the dog soup yes. I would liken it to some Goat I've had before. Wouldn't say it was good but it certainly isn't bad.

Tried the silk worms and while they weren't horrible, I wouldn't eat them again.

Forgot about gizzards in particular, luckily they are extremely popular here as well as chicken hearts.

I do believe webfoot octopus is what is usually served here in the stir fried dishes but I honestly couldn't tell you what species is served live. They have always cut it up in the back and brought it out so I have no idea. I don't know enough about octopodus to be able to tell I suppose.

Gefilte fish.

I dare you to try it with horseradish.

I can't even imagine it without horseradish!

But do you eat the roe as well? My grandmother made her gefilte from scratch and served the roe on the side.


I like sausage gravy & biscuits w/lots of Tabasco.

Chicken hearts and gizzards sauted with garlic, onions, black pepper corns and jalapeño peppers in olive oil.
Served over a mix of brown rice, red lentils and barley; cooked in chicken stock.
Tasty, chewy and nutritious.

I don't think this is weird but I've been told it is.

I love Nachos. I usually make them simple, just good chips and good cheese (pre shredded bagged cheese is not good).

At home I slice a hot link into rounds, then cut those in half. I put those on my Nachos. That's good!

When the batter is right, I cannot pass them up.

The bowling ally at NAS North Island had some of the best followed closely by a corner gas stop in Watonga, OK

Gizzards are a great appetizer or snack.


Chewy and delicious.

. Wouldn’t you know we are having them tonight.

Having been born and lived on our farm in the 40 s and early 50s we ate just about everything from the animals we butchered,the saying was with hogs was “everything but the squeal.”

When stationed in the southern Bahamas, I pretty much mainlined conch and fries. Hard to find cracked conch steaks in the US, even in the Keys. Loved it.

Smoked oysters!

Anchovies on Caesar salads and pizza.

Zero bars.

Wildly popular in these parts is crawfish. I’m sure some people still consider them “mud bugs” or bait.

As a kid I used to eat mustard and mayonnaise sandwiches. Just white bread, mustard and mayo.

For better or worse, crawfish / crawdad was a weekend treat when I was in poor and in school, Plus, a day at the river / creek - always fun.

A small investment in a piece of chicken yielded a nice, filling crawdad dinner - sauteed in garlic and butter. Yum.

In Iowa we put the squeal in car tires!

Honestlou,

I still eat mustard and mayonnaise sandwiches and some potato chips for quick and easy snacks. I figured that I was probably the only one left on the planet earth that was eating them.

Ah yes the potato chip and mustard sandwich.

The classy brother to the plain mustard sandwich eaten 2 days later when the chips are gone.

Known around here as a "struggle sandwich"

A few of my friends in Oregon put Marionberry Jam on their garlic bread....
