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.'

I've had kangaroo steak
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.

I'm glad you've eaten all of the above, it would be a pretty silly list otherwise.

"Buffalo (are they the same as Bison?)"

You can't wash your hands in a Buffalo
