What's the weirdest thing you have ever eaten?

[manaman]

crab. tissues napkin

A whole crab? Cause the meat is delicious. A napkin qualifies a little odd, unless you mean just a bit stuck to a delicious piece of BBQ chicken in that case happens all the time.

A raw rabbit eyeball. At Survival Evasion Rescue Training. It tasted like a peeled grape, and they contain lots of electrolytes.


I also smoked lettuce once, does that count?

Might you be talking about SERE training? Survival Evasion Resistance Escape training?

Cause I actually went through that. Not up on the training involved in other services, but there where never any raw rabbit eyeballs when I went through training.


As far as the odd things I have eaten, well I will eat just about anything anyone else will eat, just to try it. I like to list a different one each time this thread comes up so this time you get to know about the time I tried century eggs. Well egg. I only tried one.

Filet-O-Fish from McDonalds( oh the horror)

 

[cthulhu257]

Shredded jellyfish. *shudder* It was like...onion/tofu jello.

 

[atalanta]

-soondae (blood sausage stuffed with potato noodles and barley) (delicious, by the way)

I really want to believe that tastes good, I really do. It's just the phrase BLOOD SAUSAGE that throws the entire thing off.

I had sushi once. I know, booooooring.

Not gonna lie, I get a kick out of how icky "blood sausage" sounds. Is black pudding better?

Either way, if you've eaten a cheap hotdog you've probably had worse than a little congealed blood :V

Probably live flies. Not intentionally, though. I was on holiday in Corfu a few years back, with my family, and since we were there in the very final week of the holiday season we were one of the few families still in the resort. Seriously, the amount of other families there was so small I could count them on two hands. Anyway, everywhere was closed so aside from visiting the main town a couple of times, we spent all our time by the pool or, in the evenings, at a film bar nearby, watching films and drinking sangria. There was a small resturant as well just by the hotel where we ate every day.

The place where we ate every evening had an outside area covered with a veranda. We usually sat there to eat, and after a few nights I realised that my food was usually much crunchier than it should have been. When I drank my Pepsi I realised what it was, since nobody else had noticed anything untoward. Basically, midges and flies kept buzzing near me and when I was drinking, they were flying into the glass as I was lifting it, and getting caught up by the liuid. As a result, the flies and whatnot were going into my mouth and flying in without me noticing, and I was eating them by mistake. I just made a point of keeping my glass covered when I wasn't actually drinking anything from that point on, though. It was fine otherwise

I backpack a lot, and no matter how hard I try I can't keep mosquitoes and bitty fruit flies out of my food. Mmmm, protein-y!

A Scorpion inside of a lollipop. It tasted like orange...

 

[NotAPie]

I ate an ant as a dare when I was smaller.
Tin Foil
Rubber
Pennies
A Dollar (Half of it >_>)
water bottle cap
towel(The string)

 

[BakaSmurf]

An entire stick of butter. For $20.

And I didn't get the $20 until nearly 2 years later.

...How do you get a scorpion in a lollipop?

Also, bird seed, Beggin' Strips, and 4 pages of contruction paper.

 

[zohmbee]

I suck on and eat those paper sticks the cheap lollies come on. I...don't really know why. I've done it my entire life.

Oh, a couple paperclips. I was bored and curious.

EDIT: I've also tried tree sap. Not that bad.

A dead dehydrated Scorpion (venomous barb removed) in an injection mold where the hot liquid candy is molded and cools leaving the Scorpion entombed inside waiting to be liberated by my hunger...

I didn't even taste it...

 

[Timog]

I've eaten plenty of weird things in my life, but the time I was tricked into eating squirrel brains scrambled into eggs was one of the worst.

Also had "souse," which is basically head cheese pickled in vinegar. All the normally inedible parts of a pig/cow ground up, boiled with the head to help it congeal, then formed into a cake.

Seen someone eat a pair of raw deer testicles, cut right from the sack. Pretty horrible to witness.

Have seen someone eat a dozen dog biscuits on a dare. And "Beggin Strips."

Friend of mine got really high on life and decided that a blueberry muffin dipped in ranch would be amazing (still swears that it was delicious, I have doubts).

Trying to think of more..

The lollipop it was in was orange flavored, I didn't taste the Scorpion so I only tasted oranges, it was good...

 

[GamingAwesome1]

Plastic from my school pens.

Note to self: Stop eating your pens during English.

[Kiju]

A beef flavored dog biscuit. It's actually not half bad.

 

[Raioken18]

I once ate Balut* (not sure of the spelling),
It is a Phillipino speciality,
a chickens egg cooked and it had like a chick foetus still inside.
Tasty, I didn't have a problem with it, but it was kinda gross.
