Oh no, why did you subject yourself to that :confused:

On the Mexican side of my family, we eat cow tongue all the time. In tacos, enchiladas, tamales, anything really. We also eat cactus a lot. Both so good! On the Japanese side of my family, we eat a lot of raw fish and fish eggs, which I don't think is too out of the ordinary for most people.

After 5th grade none of my kids willingly ate the school lunch. Non-cp is in 5th now and will buy on pizza day. That's about it.

I had the white boudin. we usually have it when we do a BBQ with family.

other than that I had alligator (very uncommon here), kangaroo, ostrich, frog legs, escargots and reindeer(sorry santa).
when I lived in Spain, my roommate was always snacking on something that I tried too. Later we found out it was fried pig nose.

I've had it once up here in the north and it's not nearly as good :(

Is any food up there as good as it is in the south? [emoji6]

I've had venison (I do civil war reenactments and that's what we had in practically every meal) which actually tastes amazing Kinda spicy but it's good. I've also had gator tail (which isn't that weird here in Florida..) and Octopus. Calamari (fried squid) is good too but I guess that isn't too weird if you're here in the south..

This isn't really a "weird" food but when I went to Mississippi for work week this summer I had country fried steak for the first time. When one guy said what we were having for dinner I was so confused and he was shocked that I hadn't had it before. Anyways, it was amazing!

Funny coincidence: after I read through this thread I picked up my copy of George Bush's biography on his dad, and the page I had left off on mentioned some of the strangest things the Bush's encountered when they moved from Connecticut to West Texas, including his first time trying chicken fried steak.

You mean he's not a REAL Texan?

Well... George W.'s grandparents are from New England, but they were super influential for their own reasons. H.W.'s dad was like an investment banker or something like that and he made zillions (it was that number exactly, I'm sure of it) doing that. He was also in WWI before he went to Yale.
Then H.W. was raised in New England (they had a lot of houses, but I think he mainly alternated between Connecticut and Maine... They still have a hefty piece of property in Maine today; it's where H.W. jumped out of a plane on his 90th bday.) and was about to go to Yale then decided to enlist in WWII after Pearl Harbor (while he was dating Barbara, who's from NY). He had a bunch of success as a pilot, then went to Yale after the war ended, married Barbara, had George while he was still at Yale being the head of a fraternity and captain of the baseball team....
When he graduated he had all these offers from all over the place but a buddy of his dad's suggested he come work for him in Texas (this was during a big oil boom in the fifties) so he (after accomplishing all this by the ripe age of 23 or so), Barbara, and baby George W. moved from their fancy life and essentially started over in a West Texas oil town.
Wasn't sure how I'd feel about the book, but I'm on the third chapter and so far so good. Would reccommend.
ETA sorry for length I paraphrased best I could.
