Tarantula in Cambodia--you had to be there...
Was marinated and deep fried as a snack food. I tried a leg. Really good. Tasted like anything that has been marinated and deep fried.
I passed on the snake soup (cause it looked just like snake soup,) and the rat. Won't eat dog. Also passed on the crickets. Tried chewing beetle nuts in Myanmar--OK not an animal food, but really disgusting and produces a most unpleasant high.
Have had various organ meats--tripe, kidney, liver, heart, stuffed intestines and aorta (in Rome.) Sea urchin. Turned down Guinea Pig in Ecuador--looked to much like squirrel on a stick. In Bergamo, I ordered "uccellini con polenta" which turned out to be a kind of canary shish kabob--skewered tiny whole song birds with the heads on staring up at me--they were not wonderful. Bergamo also produces a pastry version (looks like a cake with marshmallow tweets on top) which was much better.
