Raw geoduck or gooey duck. It was served to me Nigiri style in a prix fixe menu at Morimotos. It's a large saltwater clam. It tasted like I was biting a hard salty ear... So sick. Everything else was really really good though.

Iguana taco (in Mexico, many years ago) Honestly, it really does taste like chicken.
This thread reminded me of looking through a cookbook my grandmother gave me. I found a recipe for scrambled eggs and brains. I was laughing, but my Mom couldn't understand what was so funny. Beware of Southern (U.S) cooking. You never know what part of what critter you might get served. She would occasionally cook a special treat of cow tongue for herself, but I wouldn't eat it. It smells really good,but I don't care if you do peel them off before serving, seeing the tastebuds was just too disgusting to get past.

Having spent many holidays on family farms out here, I have eaten some weird and wonderful things; Sheep's testicles, Sheep head, Mopani worms. (don't even know if I spelt that right - but they thick worms that are roasted over a fire and crack and then ooze when bitten) I have also eaten the eyes of a fish (not too bad actually) but my worst must have been when I found out (after the meal) that I had eaten a cane rat. I did querie why the bones were so small though - **splutter -splutter - cough - gag**

I get enough weird in my life in many other ways. Eating and drinking and breathing it - is not on the menu.
 The best thing you can do for your fellow,
next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things
to think about, but to wake things up that are in him...
to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald

The weirdest things I've eaten are tongue and liver. Nothing too strange imo.

Lol. Yikes - can't say I've ever done that. I'd have to say escargot, myself, when I went to France 7 or 8 years back. After that, I would say frog legs.

Nothing too wierd, but I do like chicken feet, and when I'm sick I like essence of chicken. Lots of poeple can't stand either one of those.

Some years ago on a trip to Japan with my wife's American family ; we stop the night at an interesting old fashioned hotel by the sea . We were served dinner , kneeling around a low table on which were many dishes of local delicacies for us to try . One dish contained what looked like broken glass with an india rubber on the top . I had to try it . The broken glass went scrunch as I bit it , the india rubbers was unchewable but melted like thick glue in my mouth . I said to our Japanese guide ," What's this , Jelly Fish "? " Yes " he said ," Velly Good , with Cuttle Fish on top ". I didn't eat any more , but at least had tasted it . My wife , who was two months pregnant , immediately felt sick , left the table and went to our room .
