I used to live in Darwin and we had this plant in our backyard that grew these weird orange berry things that my sister and I used to pop open and eat the stuff inside. it was really yummy, but i have no idea what it was.
the grossest thing i have ever eaten was a garlic snail. i tried to swallow it whole and wash it down with champagne, but it got stuck in my throat for the rest of the night.

A chicken, jelyfish and seaweed salad in a Japanese cafe in Chinatown Sydney
Various African game, antelope, topi, giraffe, crododile, snake, buffalo etc at the Carnivore in Nairobi
Flying Fish roe and Sea Urchin roe both sound exotic, but it's a staple at all the good Japanese restaurants.

Deep fried sparrow in Uganda served from a tray made from a hubcap. Needless to say there was not much meat.

At the Darwin night markets you can get an array of all sorts of unusual australiana delicacies. I ate buffalo kebabs, curried crocodile & garlic emu!

Boiled sheep head in Iceland - a whole, charred head that is then boiled to buggery, cleaved and eaten. A special delicacy is the gums and eye sockets.
Matured shark in Iceland - buried for months, dug up and eaten raw...... yum.
Bugs in Chiangmai - the fried bee lava was disgusting, locust not so bad.
Injera in a Washington Ethopian restaurant that tasted just like Wettex - like sucking on a sponge (menories from childhood).
Ostrich fillets with chili and chocolate sauce in South Africa - very nice.

On one particularly successful day in Japan I managed live octopus, live abalone and an entire fugu (puffer fish). Weird always relative - cheese must seem very odd to cultures that don't eat dairy - but at the blog www.weirdmeat.com there's a lovely American who's sampling the best weird meat China has to offer him.

Lots of strange things in Japan - can't tell you what they were because I had no idea (& no Japanese ) we figured the Japanese all looked very healthy so it must be ok!

I'm asian so i haven eaten pretty much anything that used to have parents and seeing that we don't like wastage, we eat the ENTIRE animal. Some deliacies include chicken feet, internal organs (kidney, stomach, tripe, liver, intestines, heart etc) from assorted animals, 1000 year old egg which is an egg thats been soaked in urine of some sort (rumour has it that its horse urine), tongue, pigs ears, pigs trotters, and even our pet chicken that turned into an adult and wasnt cute anymore.
