a buffalo burger. It's quite a lot nicer than cow.
What weird and wonderful things have you eaten? Also horse meat is fucking awesome and anyone that goes "aww you can't eat the lickle horseyworseys" will be shot.
I love horse meat best of all the meaty treats

Lovely with a bit of Cranberry sauce.
Also Emu (tastes a bit like iodine), Kangaroo (stinks when cooking) and crocodile (a bit salty)

had ostrich burgers here as well. What kind of flavour is it?

silly.
Ostrich is lovely. Very tasty, and very low in fat.

is going to get that (apart from me because I'm awesome)

frogs legs, snails, honey ants (or whatever they're called I've forgotten), and deepfried grasshoppers.
I still prefer the normal stuff though.

Snake
Bison
Ostrich
Kangaroo
Buffalo (are they the same as Bison?)
Pig's bollocks
Sheep's bollocks
I have eaten all of the above. Buffalo curry was the best of these: superb - quite venison-like, lean and richly flavoured. Kangaroo the worst: tough and chewy. 'Christ mate', said an Australian colleague upon hearing I'd eaten it; 'we feed that shit to our fackin dogs!'
Andouillette remains the worst thing I have ever eaten in my life and I shall be very surprised if there's anything worse on earth.
For those lucky enough not to know what that is:
'French andouillette, on the other hand, is an acquired taste and can be an interesting challenge even for adventurous eaters who don’t object to the taste or aroma of faeces. It is sometimes eaten cold, as in picnic baskets. Served cold and sliced thinly, the smell, taste, and texture may be mistaken for an andouille [a milder, less stinky sausage], but on closer inspection the texture is considerably more rubbery and the meat has a more faeces-like flavor. By contrast, many French eateries serve andouillette as a hot dish, and foreigners have been repulsed by the aroma, to the point where they find it inedible (see external links). While hot andouillette smells of faeces, food safety requires that all such matter is removed from the meat before cooking. Faeces-like aroma can be attributed to the common use of the pig’s colon (chitterlings) in this sausage, and stems from the same compounds that give faeces some of its odours.'

and it was lovely, if slightly gamey.
I also ate wallaby kebab and emu burger that day. I do like eating the local fauna when on holiday.

so we were discussing strange foods, and my colleague revealed that when living in Africa he once ate snake, possibly a puff adder.
chickeny texture, kind of gamey was the verdict.

Does it end up looking like it did when it was alive?
( , Fri 10 Jul 2009, 13:49, Reply)

At the same sitting I had; Hippo, Ostrich, Sailfish, Crocodile and quite possibly Buffalo.
Zebra remains my favourite, followed by surprisingly lean hippo meat.

I'm not counting stuff on the list like "Buffalo" and "Horse".
Oh, for the record, worms aren't bad.
You starve them, then kill them. Dry them in the sun, then grind them into a powder. Mix in into a basic vegetable stew.

The monkey was horrible, gristley stuff, and they burnt it badly.

for "scientific research", I didn't know at the time. I was out for dinner with a group of friends (I live in Japan) and I asked "what's that manky salty pink meat?" it turned out to be minke whale.
Just so you know, it's not very nice, stick with beef.
