Am watching Hairy Bikers and so far not seen anything could eat.

Rabbit
Razor Clams (WTF Bleugh)
Clams, muscles, whelks, cockles and all that jazz.
Frogs legs.
Tripe
Brains and heart and all that mumble but will eat calves liver or kidney
Eyes
Trotters
Tongue

Think that's about it.

What about you guys?

Madamecastafiore · 16/09/2013 19:31

Oooohhh yes snails there is another one.

Do people eat ears and arses?

crisp roast or fried pig's ears are gorgeous! Smile

I do NOT want to try a 'balti pie' (wtaf?). I saw some in a supermarket a while back and practically had nightmares! Grin

Razor clams are actually really nice, once you get past their unfortunate appearance - they're sweet, like scallops and lobster are sweet (and best of all, they're free where I live!). I like pigs ears á la Hugh F-W - ie baked with a mustard rub - a bit like crackling. Snails are good too - but I'm with you on hearts, no particular reason (I like liver and kidneys) but just can't face eating heart. Nor eyes. Nor coleslaw (reminds me of vomit).

Tongue. Just no. and snails, why would I eat any insecty thing that I can't stand to touch live?!

Otherwise I'm pretty ready to try anything.

Madamecastafiore · 17/09/2013 05:21

Oooohhhh sadly I think balti pie would go down well with my DCs.

Didn't expect coleslaw to be mentioned and I cannot, even with your recommendations think about putting seafood that has a weird little spouting hole at one end and a sort of phallic look or the ears of a pig in my mouth.

Black pudding
Brains
Any animal's willy.

MrsPennyapple · 17/09/2013 05:41

Oh, and insects. I don't care how nutty and crunchy and nutritious they are.

Cheese strings.

I apparently used to steal tripe from my grandparent's plates as a toddler and still have some vague memory of it being quite nice. Am not about to retry though. (and will add pp's lists of brains, willies etc to that list)

I can do all seafood except when it's still alive and making a last bid for freedom. (the first time I bought some variety of mussel they ate my teatowel overnight) Dp is always coming home with things that are still waggling around and climbing up the sides of bags.

I tried horse once by accident. (dp told me afterwards) It was, as the ready-meal industry in the UK has since proved, rather beeflike.

My Dad used to breed rabbits which I was led to believe was chicken.

I'll try almost anything.

Love snails (we eat them with buttered toast and very cold beer) and never met a species of shellfish/molluscs I didn't like, but there's an Iberian traditional dish I can't stand:

Boiled fish head, the eyes being a particular delicacy (they're usually sucked). Tried that once, won't be repeating the experience.
