Porcupine jerky??? Fertilized duck egg??? Mantis shrimp???
I've tried various foods from every culturally different options available in the U.S., Korea, Japan, S. America, English food at a U.K. Base (not in Europe), a S. Atlantic island, etc.
I've tried kangaroo, dog, mtn lion, bear, alligator, deer, elk, antelope, crawfish, whale (I think), shark, many bugs, etc.
I've never eaten horse or cat (house cat type) and never intend to.
I despised squid jerky, most organ meat & the bugs.
What I've never eaten and want to try is rattlesnake. I'd also like to try cobra venom sacs.
I can't think of anything on my "to eat" list. I've had crocodile, alligator, kangaroo, ostrich, rattlesnake, armadillo, and a whole variety of fruits and vegetables. I have no interest in organ meat or things with tentacles. I drew the line on some whale meat I was served at a dinner in Korea.
There is not much I have not tried yet. I can't think of any one particular item. But, and I don't know why, for some reason every time I watch Swamp People I want to try everything they are cooking at family get togethers.
Armadillo (possum on the half shell). Aloha_Shooters post reminded me about that. Never had it and, based on my reading, I never will. Apparently, armadillo's carry the leprosy virus and even eating cooked armadillo *could* make you susceptible to contracting leprosy. My brother in MO originally told me about this and I didn't believe him (gotta know my brother). After reading up on it, I became a believer.
My son went vegan a few years ago and has since taken me out to a few of his favorite restaurants. I wouldn't eat that way all the time but I was really surprised how good it was.
Haggis, tried it and its good. Heard horse meat is good also.
My dad had some horse when he was in Ireland. Said it wasn't bad at all. Little gluey is all. ;)
