What Exotic Meats Have Eaten?

I enjoy the taste and nutritional benefits of bison, but it's too expensive to buy regularly.

 

Has anyone eaten horse?

 

The closest I ever came was when Steve York put his dick in my mouth during a live performance at a porn theater.

[marylander1940]

Frog legs, bison, alligator, snake... more to come hopefully.

[Chuckball]

Moose, bear, frog legs, gecko.

Does tofu count as exotic meat?

[samhexum]

gecko.

I've eaten shish-ke-bob from street vendors, so I've probably eaten dog.

I have eaten kangaroo, ostrich, and reindeer.

The grocery store I buy from has bison but it is expensive. I've tried ground bison @$12 lb. Never bought a bison steak; it is $16 lb.

[+ bashful]

Venison, bison, frog legs, quail.

 

(Does goat count as exotic?)

[Phil_musc]

Ostrich, bison, wild boar, crocodile, frog legs, reindeer, zebra, impala, pigeon (I think that's what it was - had it in China), sea urchin (surprisingly good), venison

I visited Carnivore restaurant in Nairobi a few years ago. If it ran, walked or crawled in Africa it was on the menu.

I recently had alpaca at a restaurant in DC. Over the years I've eaten venison often, squab (pigeon), bison, wild boar, ostrich, quail, and alligator occasionally. It's protected now but before it was I had terrapin a few times.

[Epigonos]

Venison, Elk, Pronghorn, Bison, Wild Goose, Wild and Domestic Duck, Squab, Pheasant, Sage Hen, and Quail,

[+ honcho]

Quail a few times; horse, once, in college, with intense feelings of guilt.

Not sure I can add any that have not been listed already......but I did have duck tongue soup if we can diverge to what parts have your eaten (as well as the slightly more common duck feet).

 

And I guess acknowledging my heritage.....beaver, rabbit, and seal.

I have eaten kangaroo, ostrich, and reindeer.

The owner of a French restaurant near me in CA used to make sure he had reindeer on the menu right before Christmas and rabbit just before Easter. Perverse booger. The frog legs there were excellent.

 

A dive bar/pool hall in Chicago used to be known for it's O-Burger (Ostrich). It was good! But it's so low-fat it tended to be on the dry side.

 

Dad took occasional deer hunting trips so we'd have venison on years when he got lucky.

 

I've had gator in FL but it was sorta like "while you're here anyway...".

 

Goat is common in meat counters in latino neighborhoods. It's sort of a gamey lamb.

[JohnGerman]

I have had bear, camel, turtle, iguana (at Curacao), cicada, silkworm larvae, and snake. I THINK I had dog meat when I was a kid, but can't be sure. And I don't consider frog and rabbit as exotic. Obviously I had them.

Being very brave about food let me just say I don’t think I’ve seen but one or two things in this thread I haven’t tried! Had lion meat one time (farm raised, calm down).

[JohnGerman]

Oh， I almost forgot. I had giant salamander once. Just one half-mouthful bite and swallow.

Now, talking about exotic food, let's extent a bit further: have you guys had durian and enjoyed it? I am at the point that I can live with it.

After some hasty decisions, I've been dog meat.

Not familiar with it

On my list is venison, elk, moose, squirrel, frog legs, and bison. I know these are probably not considered meat but they are exotic - snails and octopus.

 

When I was in the Navy, our submarine went to a small town in Greece. We were the first USA ship to dock there in 20 years. Not a lot of people spoke English. One afternoon a group of sailors went to a local park and we bought meat on a skewer from a food cart. It had an unusual taste so we start pantomiming asking the vendor if it was cow or horse. Just then a dog walked by and the vendor pointed to the dog. Not necessarily something I want to eat again.

[Beancounter]

Camel, horse, monkey and a Kikuyu delicacy called yenye (sic). Yenye is know as tripe here in the states. Living in Kenya for two years I learned not to ask too many questions when invited to my students’ homes. You just ate it.

 

For those Swahili speakers among us one of my most used phrases in Kenya was “Nina kuhara”.
