I tried to become a vegetarian once But I like meat so much so that didn't last long. Besides the obvious, beef, Lamb, goat,goose, venison, and turkey, I've tried some rarer meats. Here are a Few:turtle, alligator,squirrel, armadillo,rabbit, balut ( boiled duck embryo), duck, Shark, pigeon, dove, even pigeon. What's the strangest thing you've tried?

I think the weirdest food I have ever eaten was blackened alligator. It wasn't nasty tasting, but it wasn't white turkey either. I tried becoming vegan as well, but had to add some eggs back in the diet. I just missed them way to much. I don't miss steak or chicken, but I do miss turkey. I think my father in law use to pass squirrel off on me as chicken, but that's not really all that strange. It's just the idea of eating squirrel.

Lol. I mentioned in my first post that I've tried armadillo. It was curried. My dad passed it off as chicken. Have to admit it was good. That Blackened alligator sounds interesting! I had alligator jerky while in Arizona on the Navajo Reservation. Good stuff.

Hey thx for responding. My whole thing is if you have something For me to taste and it's prepared well I'm all for trying it. My aunt Gave me one of those chocolate covered crickets once. I ate it but If I remember correctly, it just tasted like sticks dipped in chocolate. I'm always haPpy to try something distinct and delicious!

I have tried squid rings but I did not like it at all. It tasted very chewy and rubbery. I have also tried octopus. That tasted really good to me and it was well seasoned and had a nice sauce on it.

I tried those two and I felt the same way about both. I once saw a program on tv where these ppl in an Asian country were eating LIVE OCTOPUS. I'm not That brave!
