This week we decided to do some indepth reasearch for our readers. We’re not sure if it’s been the amount of binge watched episodes of Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern or after learning that our beloved cheese curds are consider a “weird food”, regardless, it made us intrigued to see what other “weird” foods are out there, and strongly regretting our decision.
1. Black Pudding
Oh yum, I love pudding! Vanilla, chocolate, butterscotch, and ummm….congealed blood?! Hold on, people actually eat that? And they LIKE IT?
2. Drunken Shrimp
Pretty much exactly what it sounds like. I prefer my food fully cooked and uh, not moving. You actually consume these while they are ALIVE.
3. Monkey Brains
Actually heartbroken that people consider this a delicacy.
4. Yin-Yang Fish
Also known as “dead-and-alive” fish. Somehow this half-cooked specimen doesn’t leave me feeling so zen.
5. Casu Marzu
A traditionaly Sardinian sheep milk cheese (doens’t sound too bad!). Wait, are those maggots in the mix?! Ok, ew!
6. Balut
Eating eggs seems pretty normal… except when it contains a partially developed duck fetus!
We’re so sorry we did this to you… But consider yo’self educated????
