It's delicious. Tried tripe and beans in Porto, which was disgusting... but the worst thing I've ever eaten, by far, is hakarl (fermented shark) in Iceland.

The worst I’ve ever had is Lutefisk in Norway, the daft thing was my mate in Stavanger ordered it for me and had a steak himself, he said I’m not eating that ****e! 😂 Edited July 14, 2020 by Indy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Carrow 376 Posted July 15, 2020 I've had guinea pig in Peru, bamboo maggots and cicadas in Thailand, monitor lizard and a frog the size of a small chicken in Cambodia. The best though was foal with truffles on my 40th in Slovenia. Thank you little Dobbin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not so very different from Venison. Cow foot stew is popular in West Africa, tried it so as not to offend my host, it was o.k. but nothing to write home about. Pigs trotter ,i'd avoid unless I knew it was a free range beast as a lifetime stood marinating in its own shoite in a pig factory really cant add much to the flavour.(except essence of shoite). By far the most vile thing ive eaten was again in west Africa, basically boiled spiced lower Intestine....even the sauce was foul tasting, several hous of cooking did not tenderise the tubes at all.....it just infused tbe sauce with shoite flavour.

I went through a phase of eating interesting things and developed a taste for pigs trotters. When they are done well they are glorious, but done badly they are just a greasy, gelatinous mess. During that time one of the nicest things I had was actually battered, fried slices ofcalf brain, which was really tasty. Though I show doubt we'll see that on the menu again anytime soon...

Pigs trotters were a treat for us when I was a kid, nice bit of crackling on there with lots of salt rubbed in 👍 Edited July 15, 2020 by Van wink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had trotters a few times too. And lamb's heart. I once went to an insect pick'n'mix in Thailand, like a kid with the plastic bag selecting delicacies. I tried loads of them. All salt and crunch, not for me. And I'd eat the spots off a leopard's ****, so that's saying something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
