What's the weirdest, strangest and/nastiest...

Yup /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/iagree.gif...

but I'd still turn my nose up at nook-mam. "Unnecessary embellishment" and not a "food" per-se. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Why ? ain't nothin but salad dressing.---Keoke-- /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
 
Baloots (PI and Norfolk, VA) Iguana (Curacao) Beetle soup (Thailand) Something I suspect was dog (Korea) Whatever was in the caribo's stomach (Alaska)

I refuse to eat a fish that makes your lips tingle.

When overseas, I always tried to eat local. Learned real quick NOT to ask what was in whatever I was eating. Did ask what the local name was, so I could get it again (or not!)

Food is FUN!!!!!!!!!!

speaking of liquor, my buddy said when he went to saudi arabia, he tried this foul stuff called "uzo" (i dont know how to spell it, but thats how it sounds)

You need to drink it ICE cold; strain it over ice cubes, it turns milky white. Nasty hangover tho. I think it's Greek.
 
ouzo! once was enough!, never touched it since!
but speaking of the culinary oddities mine are witchettty grubs, actually nice!
and oysters off the reef, nibbled live off the shell with worcestshire sauce, and a beer in hand, how does one describe a live oyster going down your gullet? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
A popular after lunch drink with older Italians, at least in the area that I lived, was 'Espresso con Ouzo'. A shot of Espresso and a shot of Ouzo, together not seperate. Helps the digestion. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
scott,its totally illegal to drink alcohol in saudi arabia i wouldnt want to get cought doing so!, yes "uzo" is greek and can be very nasty, they have another drink there called "sediki" not sure of the spelling. but it means "friend" in thier lingo, i had a friend stationed there for one reason or another i wont get into that here, but for a year or so hed asked me to sent him a number of copper and brass toilet fittings,tubing,valves etc,i didnt understand why untill i was assigned to spend a week at his residence there, turns out since he couldnt buy booze hed made his own still,producing "sediki" it could be mixed with anything and could be made to taste like, scotch, gin, burbon,rum,or any other hard booze,well i just had to try it for scientific reasons ya know, it had a bit of an "edge" to it but not bad all in all,i mixed my 6 oz. dose with coke, first sip rendered a nice body warming sensation,second sip challenged my verbal skills,third sip was immobilizing, forth sip i dont remember at all,woke up the next morning in the same chair feeling refreshed and relaxed not a sign of a hang over, i was told the absence of such was attributed to the clarity of and lack of impuritys in the brew, had i but known of my friends new self tought skills i wouldnt have taken the great change of being arrested by customs upon entering the country by my smuggling in two bottles of mouth wash filled with "johnny walker black" that was a very dangerous chance indeed, the only long lasting ill effect of drinking "sediki" was the degeneration of my word spelling ability. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yesnod.gif

But not if you cross the causeway into Bahrain! hehehehe

apparently, the prophet can't see what's happening on the island because there sure were a lot of Saudi's over there drinking!

& did you know that a case of beer slides into one of the old C-ration cases perfectly?
 
A nameless submarine once berthed in Bahrain, and nameless sailors made a killing selling Fosters and John Smiths.

A few of what are likely those same nameless submariners thundered into a drinking hole in Bangkok once while I was there. They seemed AWFULLY sure of their ability/capacity for consumption of grog in any form... Us flyboys proceeded over the course of hours to put them under the bar. Found out they'd had NO alcohol aboard ship. Outta practice, apparently. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Khaki shorts 'n knee socks tho. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

These lads were from Oz. We thought it strange (the "no booze on th' boat") too.
