What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten? I had braised ox tongue on a Carnival cruise one time. It wasn't bad.

Raw milk pretty much straight from the camel.
Camel into a bowl then into a cup.

I've had camel's milk before, but not raw. It tastes weird, but I don't really like drinking milk in the first place (except chocolate milk, but I don't really drink chocolate milk that much either).

Tasted very herb-y. You could tell they mostly ate scrub and weeds and stuff.

Do boogers count as food? I'm just curious, I've never knowingly eaten a booger…

Mountain oysters. That's right, gentlemen. I've eaten balls.

From an American perspective, maybe natto?

Oh, and durian.

Escargot, mountain oysters, squirrel, haggis; but opossum stew was probably the weirdest.

Never gone out of my way to eat any of this. I've just had the opportunities.

There's been a lot, but the one that made the biggest impression was a tiny still live octopus. Would not recommend

I ate fried grasshoppers in Thailand. Didn't really taste like anything. Could only really taste the oil. Every honky in the area had to get a pic of the fried grasshoppers to show the folks back home. Not too many actually bought and tried them.

Drank fresh camels milk from a nomadic herders camel in a random field in the middle of Oman.

Between the camels and the yaks, that's some of the highest fat dairy you can get

I am completely Americanized in that it's the warmth of the fresh milk vs the flavor that makes it the most different

No possum, but I've eaten the rest on your list. Won't eat Rocky Mountain oysters or haggis against, but add sea urchin, raw salted octopus tentacles straight from the ocean. A lot of stuff I tried whilst in India for 11 days.

Cooked crickets, chocolate grasshoppers, ants. The list is long. I'm a Navy brat and lived / traveled to a lot of places.

I adhere to the try it once, you'll be surprised mantra. A lot of stuff is one bite and done, but the majority is a small bite and go back for more.

Guinea pig in Ecuador. It was greasy and not a lot of meat.

Kangaroo in Australia. It was gamey.

Seal cooked in seal oil, seaweed and herring eggs. Eulachon- a type of smelt that is so oily they used to be dried and used as candles.

Raw horse sashimi in Japan probably takes the cake as, I believe, horse is illegal to eat in almost every US state.
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

Is it illegal to have and eat? We had some friends from Chile come over once and they brought some horse jerky with them, and they got thru customs. I ate in here in the USA.

I had some eggs benedict made with kangaroo and it was great.

Also had buffalo carpaccio and that was tasty as well.

I'm no horse law expert, but I did google this once upon a time. Fairly certain it's only illegal to sell it for consumption, but possession and processing is legal in most states. If I recall correctly, the US actually exports a small amount of horse meat.

I'm also fairly certain a handful of states don't regulate horse meat for consumption at all.

I've eaten a lot of different African plains game, Cape buffalo, dik dik, zebra, and most kinds of antelopes. Then typical South Texas kinds of things like menudo, tripas, calf fries, deer tongue, deer liver.
