Topic # 3: The Strangest Thing You Have Ever Eaten

When I was a child, I was a very picky eater. I would only eat typical American food, I hated fish and seafood, and I would never try new foods. All of this changed when I studied abroad in Egypt while in college. I had to try new foods, and to my surprise, I liked almost everything that I ate! Sometimes in the market I wouldn't know what I was eating, but I was always willing to try it. Since then, I usually will eat anything at least once. I've eaten frog legs, chicken feet, octopus, jelly fish, rabbit, mouse, and alligator. I must admit that I still won't eat bugs. While I was in Cambodia, the local people offered me giant fried spider, but I just couldn't eat it. Maybe someday I'll be brave and will eat bugs, but only if they are dipped in chocolate! How about you? What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten? Why did you eat it? How did it taste? Did you like it? Would you eat it again?

  2. Eating bugs dipped in chocolate sounds sooooo strange. When you are brave enough to eat that kind of food, please tell us how it tastes. I couldnot imagne how it can be. But to the good cooks, once they have put bugs in chocolate, the bugs must be created in a delicious way. You may not realize that you have eaten bugs, because coupled with the spices, the chefs have made the dishes become incredibly appetizing.
