I had dog in Korea and cat in the middle east. I think the cat was by far the worst...

[Hmmm2]

Roasted grasshoppers, chocolate covered (clumped)ants, bugs (like slugs/escargot) in Australia, eel (before it was cool) in Poland, jellied pigeon in Hong Kong, alligator, horse in Mexico (though I didn't realize it immediately .. the worst taste ever). I'm sure there are other things I've blocked out from my travels.

Hmmm2 you beat us all. I had the snake by mistake, we were having a duck dinner in Beijieng, and they brought out this appetizer, at the time i thought it was the main meal being duck so i started eating it. My friends then said "Justin the duck isnt out yet", scared yet curious at the delicous food i was eating i asked the waitress and surely enough she said "snake" after that it didnt taste good anymore. The Kangaroo i had when i was over in Australia and suprisingly it is EXTREMELY good, im not gonna lie its probably better than steak, also had emu and crocidile when i was over there but i wouldnt consider those as weird as the other two.

and BigDad i have to ask, how was dog, i couldnt imagine eating dog no matter what.

[Hmmm2]

I couldn't eat dog, either. When I was in Macau, there were black dogs everywheres ... many maimed. At the same time, dog was on the menu. I always wondered if they were just caught outside the back door and roasted. People on the beach would roast dog, while their pet dog would be romping around having fun. That's just WRONG!

We are going to a seafood restaurant tonight where one of their specialities is an eel soup that they cook on the table right in front of you - by dropping live eels into a pot and slowly bringing it to the boil - pictures of fleeing screaming westerners to follow.

OMG, that happened to us in Hong Kong. The large table next to us (family with kids) had a lazy susan in the center with a big fish bowl. In the bowl were live frogs and shrimp. Every so often the waiter would come over and pour something from a bottle into the bowl. I thought it was just a center piece. Long story short ... the lazy susan was actually a heat plate .. and the waiter was adding something like wine or vermouth. The shrimp and frogs were jumping trying to get out. Soon they slowed down. The waiter then spooned the cooked frogs and shrimp onto the plates and the people just slurped them up.

Also, I saw some of you list (cow's) tongue and conch. Conch is like a staple in S. FL .. I had that daily for years. I've had lots of tongue, too ().. don't get the wrong idea ok? ROFLOL. Tongue has a weird texture.

I've traveled a lot through the years, so have had lots of weird stuff. I'm not afraid to try foods of the locals.

I was in the same boat as you, I didn't know it was dog or cat at either time.

The dog was chewy and the cat was ground up like hamburger on pita bread. And, it was gnasty! Still feel that stuff coming back up every now and then.
