My wife is cooking dinner. She's making Jambalaya. That's some good food. It got me thinking about some of the more interesting meals I've had in my day - stuff that doesn't readily come to mind.
1. Squirrel. At least, I've been told I've had squirrel. It was when I was a child, and honestly, I don't remember.
2. Bison. This one isn't so much exotic as uncommon. Tastes really good though.
3. Octopus. I've had this two different ways, both as cooked in noodles (very tasty) and in Sushi form (not as good).
4. Poshintang. I don't recommend this, and I won't go into detail unless pressed.
5. Schmaltz. Bacon pieces and lard. You smear it on a cracker. It tastes like bacon pieces and lard.
6. Care care (Pardon the spelling here, I really don't know the proper spelling). Peanut butter and oxtail soup.
7. Frog Legs. They taste like chicken. Really.
8. Makkoli. I didn't so much eat this as drink it - it's a Korean rice wine. I can't begin to describe how unsavory this was.
9. General Tso's chicken from Safeway. If the good general knew what Safeway did to his chicken, he'd have invaded Lakewood, WA. This was so bad I had to get my friends to try it to see how absolutely foul it was.
10. Scrapple. Once. Never again.
And people say I'm not adventurous.
