It's not very unusual, but It's certainly weird. I mean, really. Take this weird disgusting sea bug that lives in garbage, then fry it and eat it whole. Um.. yum!
As for unusual, alligator on a stick.
diverrick:I had Rocky Mountain oysters one time. The father of this girl was a shepard, and he got them by biting them off the sheep, and spitting them out into a coffee can, then he came home and fixed em up for dinner. He was pretty proud of that dish!
nativenarcosis:What was the first person to ever eat the majority of these dishes thinking. You don't stumble upon a lot of things and say.. "Oh . this looks tasty"
One kid i knew back in school was told to eat charcoal tablets for, shall we say, a flatulence problem - now i have seen vets give the same things to animals, but never before nor since a doctor to an actual person. The chalk thing made me think about the charcoal.jiveturkey:Boiled silk worm larve (tastes like chalk) is a common treat for young kids.
