Thanks RYD, I did it for you.

Alligator - good
Rattlesnake - good
Conch - not bad at all
raw squid - not great
pork brains -just okay
pig's feet - just okay
my personal favorite - fried chicken hearts

[Agriv8r]

mayonaise and lima bean sandwich was the worst tasting......

[HummerHippy]

Cows Tongue - when I was no more than 8 or 10. :P

Alligator and possibly hippo or something. - Bar owner upstate would make us weird breakfasts at 2am and he had pkgs of meat that looked like bacon, but were not!

Kangaroo in Oz - with a nice dark BBQ or soy sauce type thing with a few Belgian beers. Yumm!

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 love neat foods but I'd hate to have to kill it or watch it die for me. I don't think I could be a hunter although I have a lot of respect for them and love deer meat more than anything. Neither could I watch a frog (don't care to try that one) slowly boil.

I live in South Florida and I have no where seen any of this conch or alligator tail on menus and ive been to like 85 percent of the resteraunts in S florida. I do hear that the Conch is big in the Keys/ Bahamas but i have never seen it on a menu in the physical penisula of Florida.

Yeah, I only had conch when in the Bahamas, never in FL where I live. However, I have had alligator here locally. It was on the menu at a restaurant that was later destroyed by a tornado and also at the seafood festivals you can usually get it. Bonefish might have it too, I know someone else does.

[Hmmm2]

I wouldn't expect that there would be any conch in northern FL .. it comes from Key Largo and south. Wow, 3Hummer, where've you been? LOL. I used to thrive on conch fritters at lunch... mostly around the downtown Miami restaurants. You would always see them on the appetizer or happy hour menus. I lived in Coral Gables, but would also find conch at some eateries in Kendall, Homestead and anywheres from Tavernier south. You gotta get out and live! LOL! Well, sure .. all of the Bahamian islands have conch .. that's a given. You can also buy something like 8 huge conch shells for a dollar from the locals. LOL. The Caribbean is full of conch.

No. I think he tried to re-up using a new name and then ran off when he figured out that he could hunt for stick pussy here.
