A colleague had a sheep's brain curry in a swanky Indian in Manchester last year. Obviously not heard of variant CJD!
Had the chance to eat piranhas that we had caught while in the jungle in Venezuela but decided against it as I had seen the crap meat we caught them with so they will obviously eat anything, when I say caught I didn’t catch one of the little bastards but others caught loads
Back when I ate meat I always found them very filling so would always end up skipping dessert.
@Nick was your mash pie not just what's known up north as 'butter pie'

Quite enjoyed making a few of these with another one on the go now-not a strange dish but tasty still:

Chicken feet in a chinese restaurant for chinese people in birmingham, just skin and claws pretty much. Let's just say I won't be eating them again.
Pollenta. I remember my first holiday in Italy and the hotel restaurant put what looked like a yellow scouring pad on my plate.
I've eaten some of the things mentioned on this thread such as snails, ostrich and swordfish etc but this "thing" didnt even resemble something edible.

Heard on the radio the other day, seriously, if you haven't got wine or don't want to buy it you can use strong black tea in its place in dishes like this.

I'd have thought that'd taste pretty rank to be honest! I've made it quite a few times and played around with different cheap red wines and it does make some but not a great difference to the flavour.
Swap the radio for wine, seriously, tea is no substitute for wine in any situation.
Apparently it's the tannins, I'm tempted to try it out tbh. I was going to make Stifado on Saturday but might go with Beef Bourgignon

That BBC recipe's very good, as is their goulash one. The stifado ones look a bit more fiddly but always wanted to try it.
You might be able to order one in a few weeks.
Stiffado Lol
Makes me think of something to talk to the missus about

Heh, we decided to rearrange going to Greece til mid August. If it's still looking dodgy we'll go next year.
My mind thought of something else here
I like a strawberry jam and mild cheddar sandwich, always gets a comment but it’s bloody lovely.
Not a fan of either but Marmite I find worse than peanut butter. And crunchy peanut butter is worse than smooth.
Americans I knew at uni found sausage rolls horrible but covered everything in peanut butter. That country can’t do anything right
Ambelopoulia. My dad used to put nets across the olive trees in Cyprus to catch tiny songbirds. He would take them out of the net, bite them on the neck to kill them. Feathers off, pickled, and eaten bones and all. Disgusting. It is banned now as the birds are an endangered species. You never used to hear a bird sing in the 70's and 80's they had nearly eaten the lot.
