Things I have Eaten

[Hosakawa Tito]

None of those are even remotely exotic. I myself eat scrapple often.

Anyhow, it's better than sea urchin.

Perhaps not for a country boy from the South, but don't expect my wife and her side of the family to even consider such fare.

[Strike For The South]

Taco Cabana?

A man after my own heart this one! How did you know! I always figured you were from Dallas or Houston or some uncivilized backwards place in east Texas

Have you tried going for the century club yet?

Is that 100 shots in an hour?

[Lemur]

Did goat head include the brain?

Oh yeah, and let me tell you, the brain was the tastiest part. Texture of scrambled eggs, very mild taste. Least favorite bit: the sinus cavity.

My sister is in Austin, and I've got relatives in San Antonio, New Braunfels, and San Marcos. Haven't really lived in Texas since my birth (El Paso), but I do visit fairly often.

Is that 100 shots in an hour?

One form of it is 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes. Or you could try 100 beers in 100 hours, but you need a long weekend for that.

New Braunfels now there is a town! Every summer for the last 4 years has been spent on the comal. Good times!

I will try that soon enough!

What about the eyeballs? I remember a pig roast we had a while back and a drunken friend of a friend ate them, grossed out all the women & children and some of the guys. Then he proceeded to pass out shortly afterward so I never got the chance to ask.

[Lemur]

Eyeballs ain't bad. Think of salty jello and you won't be far off. Word to the wise: Do not attempt to pry the eyeballs out of the skull with a fork. Does not work. Reach for the spoon and you'll be much happier.

Do you mean black pudding when you say blood sausage?

It seems that I do, although it was presented to me as blood sausage.

-edit-

One strange food I've never eaten and would very much like to: Haggis.

[Whacker]

I'm still waiting for someone to say that they've eaten balut before, or a century egg. Don't click either if you have eaten recently or are going to eat soon.

FYI, 100 beers in 100 hours = death, even if you are STFS or a 6th year senior fratboy. Century club is 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes, and it can be a bit harsh.

[Alexanderofmacedon]

Yeah I've been before. Florio's is good, but it's not THAT good. I don't know what the craze is. Next time you go give me a call though.

Taco Cabana is actually quite good for a fast-food chain. No complaints really (but it's obviously NOT Mexican food, but Tex-Mex has quality too).

drone, you need to visit me. I have family in Austin and I live in San Antonio

Unless you're the size of John Wayne, that's physically impossible. No joke. Your liver would swell up and burst if you tried to drink that much alcohol, and that's if you don't blow out your stomach and/or duodenal tract first. Or you didn't pass out and immediately die of alcohol poisoning.

It'd be like playing edward 40 hands...and feet...

I'm sure it's possible for people with a high tolerance though. Andre the giant could drink 150 beers in a night.

But that's four days! I've managed that.

I've eaten a century egg before, they're quite good. I've never tried a balut, and I don't think I ever will...

[a completely inoffensive name]

I have 6 strips of bacon every day for lunch. Not as a topping, just 6 strips that I eat by themselves.

[CountArach]

But that's four days! I've managed that.

I didn't think a Frenchie would be capable of it. You understand this is beer, right? None of your grape-things...

[naut]

Exotic foods? Ate crocodile before, strong tasting.

My Wife has had balut which was described as chicken meat fried in eggwhite. She didnt know what it was when she had it and kind of freaked out. when she found out. Century eggs she is fine with though. I have tried neither.

My fellow Greeks eat sheep's and goat's eyeball , especially from a roast animal in Easter. I ve convinced my wife to eat one and she did, but I never tried one. I eat the brain and tongue but never managed to try an eyeball.

You are all girls!!

25 beers, that's like what? A little over two liter!? Now that is a huge amount, enough to make even a tough, manly man like me struggle. But if I have 24 hours, I am sure I can handle it!

Unlike all you girls here apparantly. Tsk.

[drone]

25 beers, that's like what? A little over two liter!?

The standard is 1 beer = 12 ounce can or bottle, or for you weirdo metric types, 0.355 liters. So 100 beers is 35.5 liters.

[LeftEyeNine]

Yeah, I was concerned with the same measurement oddness as well. 25 beers equal to a little over two liters ?

Do you Frenchies drink beers in Turkish coffee cups and count each as one ?




(Only one of your your fingers can go through that holder it's that small.)

[*]Gelatinous white wobbly objects that nobody ever identified (tapas bar, Madrid)

Love the sound of that one.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

I used to stick Cinnamon in my soup

[atheotes]

(Well, okay, sea urchin is freaking disgusting, tastes like raw mercury.)

You know the taste of raw mercury???

Oh yeah, and let me tell you, the brain was the tastiest part. Texture of scrambled eggs, very mild taste. Least favorite bit: the sinus cavity.

goat brain is very tasty... texture is much softer than scrambled eggs in my opinion... and i like it best when prepared south Indian style fried blood and liver of the goat are also also good....

I have also eaten and liked - rabbit, deer, types of Quails, Pigeon, mynas and other wild birds that i can never identify

[Tristuskhan]

Leech. In northern China. The best meat I ever tasted, better than the best beef.

No.

Century egg is great. It really tastes alot better than it looks. The outside is kinda gelatin/jello like, but not as soft and doesn't really have any particular taste. The inside is a bit mushy and has a very distinctive taste that I can't really describe. Really, I would encourage you to try it

[Tristuskhan]

No.

...Seriously?

Yes, seriously. Buffalo leech. Everything is processed in small bits in chinese cuisine, so I learned it was leech after having said it was the best meat I ever tasted. Needless to say the chinese around me were all very pleased to hear that.

How was it prepared?

[Tristuskhan]

How was it prepared?

Fried with vegetables if I remember well (it was in 1993)
