fired okra, this is pretty standard down here, but some of you people are from far away

can't find a good picture of it, but fried eggplant is delicious.

Marmite is interesting...

Not sure about in the states but up in Canada Jamaican patties are standard fare, and also delicious.

I eat weird [censored], just whatever I have on hand, and usually enjoy most of it. I recently grossed out my sister when I was visiting and hungry, and made a bowl of rice, bananas, leftover chicken, boiled egg, and tabasco. It tasted pretty good

Next time add some peanuts and curry powder to that. That would be good.

They're made from pork...bits...and stuck in membranes to stay spherical. And you bake them in onion gravy. Interesting. They are from the UK, where i live, South West England.

AND i had to rehost the image because of their name, it came up censored. Ridiculous.

This thread is not really delivering as most of the responses are common. If you really want to see some odd/weird food watch a show called Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel. But only if you're not squeamish.

Here are the top ten least palatble:

Durian is an extremely odoriferous fruit with custard-like flesh.

Klia is a mystery meat that is salted, dried and preserved in its own fat.

Mangrove Worms live off of dead wood pulp – they are eaten raw.

Callos is a casserole made with blood sausage and tripe.

Coconut Grubs is larvae that live in dead palm trees.

Menudo is soup made with tripe and beef hearts.

Goose Intestines on Bean Sprouts is essentially Goose guts.

Nutria in Sauce Piquant is a large semi-aquatic rodent.

Soup No. 5 is a soup made from the back and testicles of a bull.

Haggis is sheep heart, lungs, liver mixed with oatmeal and stuffed in the sheep's stomach bag.

And this list doesn't even have the duck embroyos or stinky tofu that I saw on a recent episodes, really disgusting.

This one isn't going to deliver either, but 30 years ago probably would have.

Calamari. Now practically every restaurant on the planet has it on the menu but 25-30 years ago it was pretty obscure and if you weren't Italian probably had no idea what it was.

We only had it once a year, Christmas Eve when my mother tried to stay traditional and have an all fish/no meat meal and the hi-light would be stuffed calamari in tomato sauce with pasta, yum.

So now my two sisters are the first to get married and neither one marries an italian and now we're at our first xmas eve with these guys. So she serves it up and it looks like everyone is enjoying the calamari when I say "Reg, I'm surprised you like squid". He spits it out and pushes his plate away and everyone has a good laugh.

Next xmas eve my mother breaks tradition for the first time ever we have meat as she makes a standing rib roast.
