When I was young my uncle made me eat different kinds of exotic food (without my knowledge). I have tried "monitor lizard adobo"(adobong bayawak),
"fried frog"(piniritong palakang-bukid), "golden apple-snail"(kohol) to name a few.

Have you eaten tried exotic food? What kinds of exotic food have you tried? Share us your experiences in eating unusual and exotic delicacies.

wow,your discussion reminds me of my special experience of a kind of food,it's exactly is kind of steamed bun.It's made of powder and kind weed which can be made for food.It smells really great,but god,it almost made me throw up...


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

Really? well there really are food which are good to smell but can be awful to taste. Smell can be deceiving at times. Steam buns are generally good, I've never heard of the kind you ate so it must be pretty unusual. Thanks for sharing.

I have tried frog, hahaha... fried frog. Actually I hate to try it but it doesn't taste bad at all. I tried "kohol" (golden apple-snail) too...with coconut milk and I think it taste okay. Haha. I never tried eating anything weird other than those I mentioned. w00t hehe


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

Fried frog meat is much like chicken, isn't it? In my province every in our town eats "kohol" during it's season. Its good actually, especially if the one preparing is an experienced cook for those kinds of delicacies. I miss eating "kohol", I'll definitely look forward to eating some when I get back to our province. Thanks for sharing danitykane. Happy mylotting.


myLot reputation of 98/100. danitykane (1069)   ranked 4,956 out of 11,218 in cooking  1 month ago

yes it taste like chicken.. i miss "kohol" toolol..


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

Where did you taste it? Is your province, by any chance, Ilocos?


myLot reputation of 98/100. danitykane (1069)   ranked 4,956 out of 11,218 in cooking  1 month ago

I ate it about five or six years ago, when we went to Bulacan. Then the kohol, it was like so many years ago...my cousin got it from Pateros and his Mom cooked it with coconut milk.. It taste so good.


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

Oh, i see. Kohol is very popular in Ilocos that's why I asked. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Happy mylotting.

I don't like exotic foods! Especially meat. I heard that you can now eat crocodiles. I watched it in Mel and Joey last month. I think the most exotic food I ate was the squash flower. But dogs, rat, bugs, snakes, frogs, worms, lamb, goat. NEVER! Even liver. I don't like it. I prefer fruits and vegetables, tuna and chicken.


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

I felt exactly the same before. My uncle made me eat these things for the 1st time without letting me know that it's something different. There are also exotic fruits and seafood, maybe you'd want to try those. I have an allergy with seafood though so I haven't tried too much.


myLot reputation of 81/100. bubblepink (439)   ranked 4,138 out of 11,218 in cooking  1 month ago

yes exotic fruits will do like durian, dragon fruits, etc. but not meat or anything, NEVER! haha! I love seafood but very limited. (just shrimp and crabs will be fine lol)


myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

I envy you, I like crabs but I can't eat them because I'm allergic to them. Every time I taste crabs my body gets filled with these itches and they swell up.


myLot reputation of 81/100. bubblepink (439)   ranked 4,138 out of 11,218 in cooking  4 weeks ago

I rarely eat crabs. Just the crab sticks for sushi.:)

myLot reputation of 70/100. tokouchi (126)  1 month ago

Really? Haha. My uncle does the same thing. He tells me its something ordinary, then i find out its not. I have not tried bat soup yet, I don't think I want to taste one either. Thanks for sharing your experience.
