    What was the strangest food you have eaten. For me it was some oysters earlier this week.They tasted a lot like sardines.

    Black pudding. One of the very few foods that I will not eat again.

    Is Tiger Meat the actual meat of a tiger or something else that is just called that?

    Unfortunately it is real, pouchers sometimes kill them and then the meat is sold at very high prices. A business associate opened up a small tin of tiger meat and asked me to try some. It wasn't very good and left a bad taste in my mouth, in more ways than one.

    I once tried durian, and it was definitely an experience! The smell is so strong, but the taste is oddly sweet and creamy.

    That’s interesting! I’m not a big fan of oysters myself, but I can imagine how that fishy taste would be similar to sardines. For me, the strangest food I’ve tried was durian. It has such a strong smell that it’s almost hard to describe, but the taste was actually pretty good once I got past the initial shock! What made you decide to try oysters?

    The strangest thing I have ever eaten is rattlesnake. They serve it at a restaurant in Colorado named "Traildust". I know they all say this, but it tasted like chicken.

    It does taste great, but isn't it pig's blood?

    Yes, it is made with blood. The taste is horrible, imo.

    Pigeon. It’s often cooked in Egypt and other Arab countries. It’s usually stuffed with rice. There are special farms for raising pigeons.

    The Heart Attack Grill in the US is the worst place to eat out. Everything is prepared in an incredibly unhealthy way.

    It's so high up on the 'bad for you' scale, as a whole.

    Interesting choice! For me, the strangest food I’ve tried was fried octopus—really chewy and salty. But honestly, I still prefer sticking to bold and familiar flavors like what you get on the https://checkers-menu.us/. Can't beat a Big Buford and seasoned fries!
