What delicacy's are there in your country or region that would be strange to the rest of the world?!
For example, in the Philippines and Vietnam they eat fertilized duck eggs!. In my country we eat salted raw herrings!.
In the region I come from we have 'Balkenbrei'!. It's a kind of cake made of pork, a lot of flower, some herbs!. It gets boiled first and then the cake gets cooled down!. You cut pieces from it and fry those to the point that they get crispy!.
Most people, even in the rest of the country, find the idea of this grey looking cake horrible!. I was born in the region and really like it!.
So, what kind of 'weird' delicacies are there in your country or region!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I come from a state with Scandinavian roots!.
Every year, just before Christmas, many Lutheran churches have a Lutefisk Supper!.
Most would not consider this a delicacy, but I love it and these suppers are always well attended!.
Of course, the Swedish meatballs and Swedish sausages, potatoes and lefse also served may have something to do with it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm in Thailand at the moment and they eat some pretty strange things here!. Once a year in Chiang Mai (probably in other places too) flying ants swarm, mate, lay their eggs, and promptly drop down dead!. The women rush out to gather them all up!.
A day or so later these appear on the streets in packets for anyone to buy!. They're served up with chilli and garlic!. Delicious!Www@FoodAQ@Com

kangaroo sausages or kangaroo steaks or even roast kangaroo (like roast lamb or pork but with kangaroo meat)!. You can buy them at the local supermarket, they have quite a gamey taste though and personally I dont like it - maybe its more cause I can picture little skippy lol!Www@FoodAQ@Com
