An eyeball from a young ram's head complete with wool intact in a pot at the bottom of a hole in the ground.
Described to me as the "real true barbacoa" in Tlalnepantla Mexico at the quinceañera of a friend's daughter.
That was after a whole bunch of bottles of "little soldiers"

Elephant tongue- pretty gamey and smelled weird.
Armadillo- several times, very tasty white meat.
Raccoon- tough as leather very gamey.
Meadowlark- dark liver taste
Robin- dark liver taste.

The last two I did not kill which is illegal I had it in southern Louisiana where it is eaten regularly.
I did not kill the elephant either. A friend of mine did and said it was ceremonial to eat the tongue so he had some friends over after he returned from his hunt and had a party. Luckily they had Oryx and Eland meat also and it was wonderful.meat.
I have eaten sea turtle on several occasions and it was delicious.
Rattlesnake, possum, conch, sea snail, eel, fried grasshopper, grub worm, sea urchin ovary to add a few more. I usually will try anything nice just to experience it.

Not real sure what to say "as i'm lying here with linda on my mind".


Life journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved state.
But rather skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy carp what a ride!"

Squid ink and pasta... Everyone said that if you visit Venice you've gotta try the Squid ink and pasta, I guess it's a local deliciously... So I did... Tasted like chalk and pasta... But it gives you purple teeth, good for a unique vacation photo... Dan

My BIL was given a ham, or rear leg quarter off a kangaroo.. It was a big thick chunk of meat so we BBQ'd it like a brisket..

Meat looked blue when it was done and very stringy.. Not the best cut of meat on the planet.. (Tip: Don't eat blue meat..)

Proper Barbacoa and Lengua tacos are some of the best things south Texas has to offer..

Alligator gar (Catan) is an everyday occurrence in Zapata.. Locals will get in a fist fight if you're trying to give one away..

Hot, crispy, and still oozing milk guts from sheep wrapped in a tortilla with some hot sauce is hard to beat.. My uncle that cooked them all the time when I was a kid called them Mariguts. (sp) Awesome.. Take a big bite and all that [censored] be drippin down your chin..

Ah, the good old days..

Ate a lot of [censored] with the hair still on it back in the seventies..

Here's my list...I pride myself on trying foods at least once. Some of these, you couldn't pay me to eat again.

1) Balut...baby duck egg. Bit into it, got soft bones and feathers. Instantly turned green and ran for a bush.
2) 1000 year old egg...tasted like sulfur, smelled like septic system. Nope not again.
3) Durian...smelled like feet, tasted way too sweet, and sticky.
4) Chitlins...no matter how much you clean them, they held poop!
5) Chili crickets...MX delight. I actually enjoyed these with Corona and lime.
6) Dinuguan...Filipino blood stew. This is amazing w/ rice!
