Interesting Foods You Have Eaten?

Hello.
I am quite well travelled and have eaten a lot of different types of meat from around the World ,what have you eaten on your travels
For me it is.
Camel:Ok to eat. Is quite flavoursome ,a bit like beef/lamb.
Snake:We had it dipped IN segments of egg white and milk, if you want.It is very nice kind of like chicken when cooked,but we didn't find it tasted like chicken.
Bear: Had this in Russia it is dense in texture ,they took the fat off for us as the fat is quite strong.The meat has a small taste of venison and has a little bit of wild boar taste.
I have many more to add,tell me what you have had and what you liked.

Goanna,tail was good but the rest is under cooked but thats is the way they like it. Crocodile , chewy & not that flavoursome, needs to be spiced up. Donkey, fan fucking tastic. Sea urchin, very strong oceanic taste.

Crocodile i have tried in Vietnam ,wasn't so good as you say no flavour unless you added chilli or some herbs .
Sea Urchin is a favourite of mine.

The most interesting meats I've had are either Moose, Bear or Alligator.
The moose and bear were ok as was the gator.
Crossed off the bucket list.

Squirrel when I was in Valkenburg, Holland aged 16 ..... Wasn't told what we had eaten until afterwards - What I can remember is that it didn't taste weird or horrible.

Interesting Foods You Have Eaten?

I am more of an adventurist than my friends and family. I will try anything once. While on a run, I accidentally ingested a fly. It flew in my mouth! While backpacking, an ant climbed into my dinner, but I was too tired to pick it out, so I just ate it. I've eaten escargot, tomalley, sushi and sashimi, etc. Sea cucumbers are nasty, but sea urchins are basically black crud that smells like the sea floor. Yesterday, I barbecued a rabbit. I would not buy it again, because it is between pork and chicken and they are both better tasting and cheaper.
