Tesco are starting to sell them at their Deli counter Steve,sure to be a hit with,erm,erm....Yeah,well,maybe there wont be a rush on them initially,they really are an aquired taste 
Waste not,want not,eaten much worse visually(and thats where it starts mate),not much taste on them but a damn sight better than cockroach,scorpion,raw sea-cucumber guts,most things are edible enough and fill your belly if your hungry enough,can I tempt you with a nice piece of BBQ chicken entrail?

Theres only once my stomach ever turned mate,couple of guys clubbed a cat,threw it on a skewer till the fur frizzled up,let it cook for a while then peeled the outer blackened shell away and began to tuck-in,to be honest it tasted great,just the smell of singeing hair and popping eye-balls I couldnt take at first

I spent two weeks staying in Longhouse in the Sarawak highlands, and I had curried water-buffalo.
Much of the other stuff I ate, I couldnt't tell you what it was, but there was alot of wild boar, baby fern fronds, plus rice! regards Barapoi |

Tidal,
It looks like you spend some time in SE Asia, and I will admit to being a bit leery of very strange food - but you have to try it once, and if you dont spend the next 24hrs on the porcelain telephone you have done well! Godzone (thats New Zealand to the uneducated) now has a large Asian immigrant population. In Auckland we have a large number of chinese resturants which do a "YUM CHA" menu in the weekends for brunch. The food is magic, bite size, and it just keeps coming! I have tried chooks feet, plus duck tongues, but the effort to get a taste of meat far outways the hassle of trying to chew it off the bone/gristle. What gets my neck up is that NZ is a major expoter of lamb, do you think I can get sweetbreads or brains? - they are all exported to France and I pay a premium for them. Go figure! Regards Barapoi |

Been to Sarawak a few times mate,longhouses are cool,especially the ones with the soot-blackened skulls in the ceiling,they could tell a few tales I was next door a few weeks ago,Sabah,did some training there once and got a taste for the place,spent four and a half years based in Hong Kong and travelled extensively in China so I ate my fair share of fat,bone,and gristleI was actually at an asian party last night,I got the Job of head BBQ'er

Foss,my mother-in-law makes the most disgusting dish,feeds the pig vegetables for a week prior to slaughter,feeds it again a few hours before throat-cut,then squeezes the semi-digested vegetable mush out of its stomach and mixes it with pig blood,when they kill a pig they waste....NOTHING!

my grandfather always eats boiled moose tongue... i don't realy like the texture.:S But i always eat anything i get served, at least i try. My granddad ones opened a can of rotten down fish, after looking for that stuf for years he finaly found it somewere in russia and bought everything they had-.-The smell of that fish just made me puke it was so awfull, imagine putting fish in a jar for 2 months and let it sit in mid summer right in the sun. Well i tasted it and it realy was awfull , it made me puke, that's the only thing i have never been able to eat in my life. | ||

I used to know a guy from Sweden that ate that stuff. They have a big folk festival thing every year where the eating of fermented fish is part of the festivities. He says it smells so bad that the cans have to be opened under water. They get hammered on vodka, then eat the fish washed down with a lot more vodka. Crazy Scandinavians! I've eaten the snails out of my back garden. Pretty tasty when cooked right.

I think you have to soak shark before eating, just like with skate. I've eaten some kind of rotten shark before, in iceland. Called Hákarl i think. It's honestly awful. Anyone who tried a decent sized piece the size of a strawberry was sick. I was more sensible and had a small piece, kept it down but god it is horrid. Like eating lard but with an incredibly awful smell, and a slight fishy taste. |

I just ate what I was given mate,they sun-dry most of their fish as the village is built on stilts out at sea on the edge of a seaweed farm.
