What is the most exotic or rare thing you've ever ate?!


Question: What is the most exotic or rare thing you've ever ate!?
Like, I've seen pig snouts and feet, hog jowls, chow chow, chopped liver and all sorts of other things in stores and wondered who eats that stuff! Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
+ Milza - cooked spleen, an Italian regional speciality (I've had it in the Veneto)
+ Snails - of all sorts (even periwinkles)
+ Split and baked or BBQ'd lambs head: cheek meat, tongue & brain
+ Frog legs - fried of course
+ Andouillettes: pork chitterling sausage (French speciality)
+ Morcilla - blood sausage (best when fried and best come from Spain)
+ Grilled eel (just excellent)
+ Pickled pig knuckles / feet
+ Callos - Spanish style of making / cooking tripe
+ Corata - a specialirty from Calabria or Puglia = baked lamb's heart, spleen, lung, liver and kidneys!. (I've got the recipie if you want it)!.
+ Roe - when I'm lucky!. I have the fish monger put the sack aside - I rinse it, bread it and fry it!.
+ Cuttle fish roe
+ Ox tail
+ Pig ears - the Spainards cook them up!. Actually not bad at all!.
+ Haggis - great Scottish food stuff!.
+ Baby eels - the are about an inch long and white with tiny black eyes!. Rinse, mix into and egg and flour batter and deep fry!.
