THE GROSSEST FOOD YOU EVER ATE (or couldn't eat)

[soraanaam]

imaginary rep! (out of rep for the day)

I used to eat sea cucumber with relish, because I thought it was the oceanic version of the vegetable. Plus it was sliced up just like vegetables. Then I watched PBS one day, and they had a documentary on floor-dwelling sea creatures...:eek:

Also, I once ate at the California Pizza Kitchen and found a really coarse and curly pube in my salad. I have not been back since.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Blood sausage is vile though.

Reminds me of congealed pig's blood. Can be found on Chinese menus as "pig blood jello." A cooked iron taste with a hint of viscera. Texture is akin to an evil tofu with a squeaky feeling at the end.

Or how about those dried dead bees that they use in selected mixtures of chinese herbs when you're sick? Didn't know it was in it the first time I drank the first dose since I just drank what was cooked. Witnessed the people package the "herb mixture" second time around when I was around 7 yrs old. I'm sure it was dead dried bees, asked to double check when I was at the place a few months ago. Scar-ed for life.

When I was over in China, I was served BBQ'd pidgeon as an appetizer .. grossest food I've ever been served by far.

It stil had it's head and everything on it .. it was just feathered and cooked.

[lestat]

does dog count?

its taste is kinda like lamb, texture like beef tendon...

[superdupersang]

i drank milk straight from a cow once

don't call your mom names on the internet, dude- especially behind her back.

I ate fugu sperm on rice, thinking it was tororo

raw chicken sashimi and nigiri wasnt bad at all

[onemancult]

fish sperm on rice.... how many fish does it take to get a decent-sized load, one that would satisfy the appetite?

now i wonder why, if eating fish eggs is so common, why harvesting fish sperm isn't more prevalent.

what did fish sperm taste like?

[Chicken]

(i feel a bit silly saying this, but) fish sperm tastes like brains.

- hannibal chicken lecter

you'd be surprised how much sperm you get out of one fish. the fugu sperms are one of the more sought after delicacies. consider yourself lucky?

[onemancult]

how does fish sperm compare to human sperm in terms of consistency, color, and taste? (assuming that the popular conceptions about the taste of human sperm are true.)

[DaBestSpoona]

it was quite delicious actually, kind of like uni, consistency reminds me of tororo

Fugu is like the Peter North of fish, one little bastard can produce like a quarter cup.

I would eat it again, but 4000yen for donburi is a bit high

[Chicken]

the ones i've had aren't anything like jizz spewed all over the place. but they come inside sacks, so they do look like brains if you ever had those. and taste similar too. sweetbreads are also similar.

uni is pretty close like spoona says. but the consistency is a bit different.

[Chicken]

here's what i'm talking about. a cod shirako:

and here's something closer to what spoona had. a fugu shirako (notice it's much larger than the cod's):

[onemancult]

....that whole thing is a sac filled with fish fuckjuice?

[DaBestSpoona]

from wikipedia:

Shirako (白子) means "white children" in Japanese. It is also a term for milt or soft roe, which is sperm of the fish (usually anko or fugu). It 's considered a delicacy in Japan.

I'm gonna white children shirako from now on lol

[onemancult]

WHOA, the soft roe not only includes spermssssss, but the fish's reproductive glands.

WHAT UP, FISH PROSTATE WITH CREAM FILLING!

hyukhyukhyukhyuk, i crack myself up.

[Chicken]

....that whole thing is a sac filled with fish fuckjuice?

i think the fugu shirako you're seeing is just a slice of a bigger organ. if i'm not mistaken, the sperm sack in a large fugu could get close to about the size of a child's kidney.

unlike us, their sacs don't hang outside of them, but are inside them. any marine biologists around here who could confirm?

if you like shirako, you'd like ankimo as well.

there was also this one joint i was taken too years ago that served raw frog legs and it's heart. the heart was till beating because they gut and clean it right in front of the patrons. i couldn't eat both...

[DaBestSpoona]

ankimo is a regular part of my diet, foie gras of the sea

[apu]

i've tried chicken testicles before, pretty bad ...

[Tyro1]

Once I saw a fish get speared and it got a boner, but I didn't eat it. It was pretty big considering the size of the fish...

[Guest Goose25]

take the anus and lower bowels of an animal and cut it up finely then stuff into intestine and boil.

we took some friends out for dinner and "m" ordered andouillete - hey when you're in france why not?

The waiter was a little taken aback and promised that another course would be given free if "m" didn't like it! He perservered and we all watched in fascination as he took a bite: '...hmm... it's strong' he said,

so i tried a bite with the same reaction: '...hmm... it's strong' - how else can you describe what tasted like eating a horses ass complete with shit?!!!

"M"'s wife wasn't game to try it so he doused the dish in a ton of mustard and persevered alone.

The next day we went for a wander with said friend and some ponies were taking kids around on rides. As we walked past a whiff of horseshit floated by. "M" turns to his wife and says: 'Imagine eating that! That's what it tasted like!'

[fndmybetterhalf]

last night i had abuot the nastiest thing ive had in awhile...usually its the texture that gets me, ie sea slugs, etc, but this just tasted straight up nasty.

taiwanese stinky tofu.....

shits actually called stinky tofu, and wow, it smells and tastes like poop nuggets

[insomaniac]

i should read this thread when i get hungry.

Lots of people here in Korea are into ordering up a plate of chicken assholes or feet to go with their soju, which is also not meant for human consumption. Personally, I always hated even ordering fried chicken because I knew there'd be a few pieces in there I wouldn't be so keen on in order to get the two breasts, and couple drumsticks. Imagine ordering a full plate of little chicken assholes or a platter stacked up with deep-fried chicken feet (which reminds me of cultpop's necklace)...

[nettiemoore]

havent eaten many gross things but one thing i can remeber was eating some durian when i was younger and really not liking it.

Dalk Ddong Jib is the shit! Almost like deep fried bacon with more texture. Great with soju!

Some of you have the palate of a three year old coupled with the gastronomic curiosity of a seventy year old.

mmmm stinky tofu.. essential to the chinese breakfast
