This post is going to be about The Top Ten Weird Foods from around the world that I HAVEN'T eaten. And then I'm going to make a list of Weird foods I have eaten,
Now, Top Ten Weird Foods I haven't eaten:
1.) Bird's Nest Soup - China
I've done some research, and I found this isn't actually a bird's nest, it's actually Bird's saliva. I'm not sure if I want to eat bird spit, but guess what? My mom and my dad ate (drank?) this before. This dish is really good for famous people to make their skin look smoother and stuff. This stuff is really expensive, because it's hard to get bird's spit. Apparently, my mom says it has really good in protein and minerals... (All these pictures in this post AREN'T taken by me, found them in the internet)
My mom said it is sweet. Hmm... My mom said I have to try it when I go to China, or Calgary, or Vancouver, etc.
2.) Fried Spiders - Cambodia
Eeeeeeeeewwww, just this picture make me cringe. I have arachnophobia, which is like the fear of spiders, and I'm so grossed out. Apparently they are seasoned with salt and garlic, and they are crispy on the outside, gooey in this inside, and apparently it tastes like Chicken...
3.) Puffer Fish - Japan
(BTW, he is not related to me, I don't know him, I found this on the internet)
Here's how it looks like cooked -
That actually looks pretty good, but be careful, go to a super good restaurant. It's illegal to cut this fish unless you have a license, one wrong angle for cutting this WILL kill someone.
Here's what I found in this internet:
You’ve got to be careful with this delicacy or you might end up in the morgue. The deadly Puffer fish, or fugu, however is the ultimate delicacy in Japan even though its skin and insides contain the poisonous toxin todrotoxin, which is 1,250 times stronger than cyanide.That’s why in Japan only expert chefs in licensed restaurants are allowed to prepare it. Otherwise you’re likely to become paralysed whilst still conscious and eventually die from asphyxiation because there is no known antidote.Fifteen people died in Thailand when the fish was made illegal and people started dying it pink and passing it off as salmon.

So I wouldn't want to eat it, I'm afraid to die, even if you know how to cut it, one wrong angle, and I'm dead, everyone makes mistakes, I wouldn't trust anyone.
4.) Balut - from the Phillipines
This is a fertilized Chicken Egg... gross, basically eating baby chickens not even born yet...gross!
This is the chicken with hot sauce...
Apparently you suck on it...gross!
I would never want to eat this!
5.) Cheese with Maggots - Sardinia
Eeeew, I will never want to eat this!
6.) Stinky Tofu - China
Apparently this is very popular in China, my dad ate it, my mom almost barfed when she ate it, I almost barfed when I
smelled it. Stinky Tofu smells like barf, not kidding.

I found this in Wikipeida - From a distance, the odor of stinky tofu is said to resemble that of rotten garbage or manure, even by its enthusiasts. In some instances the taste has even been compared to rotten meat. In spite of stinky tofu's smell, most say the flavor is surprisingly mild. It is said the more it smells, the 'better' its flavor. Some few people have compared it to the taste of blue cheese.
7.) Live Octopus - Korea
Apparently, you have to fight to eat it, because the octopus will move and stick to your mouth, and it will bounce in all directions in your mouth. Again, something I do not want to eat.
8.) Poo Coffee - Indonesia
Officially called Kopi Luwak, this is the most expensive and rarest coffee in the world. It's made out of animal poo. I dont think I want to drink this. Eeeeww.
9.) Puffin Heart - Iceland
Enough said, it's basically puffin heart. I personally wouldn't mind eating this.
10.) Snake Wine - Vietnam
Yes, people actually drink this! I wouldn't want to drink this! Eeeeww looks gross!
Well, anyways, now I'm going to tell you the Top 10 Weirdest Foods I'VE EATEN:
Most of the foods I'm going to tell you is basically Weird Chinese food, (well, not actually weird, Fun Fact: Outside of North America, Peanut Butter is considered "weird" ) And yes, the stereotype is true, people in China eat dogs, but don't worry I don't. I think it's gross, how can someone eat those cute dogs? Eeeww!
And apparently people get a live monkey, cut the top of the head, just the top, so the monkey is still alive, and get chopsticks and eat the brain, while the monkey is still alive! Cruel!
Anyways, here's my list:
In no particular order, just a random order:
10) Urinating Shrimp
Yes, it's called "Pissing Shrimps"
It actually tastes pretty good, and no, they are dead, just like normal shrimp, it's just a different kind of shrimp, and they don't actually piss when you eat them. Apparently, when the shrimps are alive, they release some kind of liquid (not urine) and back in the old times, people thought it was pee, but it isn't.
9.) Chicken Feet:
You can actually buy this in Save On Foods and Superstore, so it's not unknown. Next time, just look at the meat section!
I really don't know how to eat it, but I ate it.
But usually my mom makes Chicken Feet Soup.
Well, this picture is from the internet, my mom's soup isn't oily at all.
8.) Pig's Blood
It's basically dried pig's blood cooked, and put into machines and stuff to form it into a jelly like Square -
I don't really like it, my dad, my mom, and my sister LOVES it, but I don't. You can eat this in China, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, etc. I ate it in Vancouver and Calgary.
7.) Grass Jelly:
It's tasteless, I barfed. Not lying at all, I really did vomit. It was gross. And my mom got SO MAD! You can buy this at Superstore:
6.) Snake Soup
We went to this restaurant in China called The Snake Restaurant, and the only thing they have is Snakes. You walk in, and you see hundreds of cages and tanks with live snakes. We had deep fried snake, snake soup, fried snake, stir fry, etc.
I hate snake, it is so chewy, I could barely swallow!
5.) Salmon Eyes:
It's gross, don't eat it! It's so jelly, and then in the middle of the eye, there is a tiny white ball that you can't even chew! It's so hard, it's like crumpled piece of paper.
4.) Sugar Cane Juice
It's pretty good to drink, pretty refreshing. It's not weird at all, sugar comes from sugar cane. Sugar Cane is a fruit.
3.) Dragon Fruit
Worst fruit ever! I'm not sure if this is weird, but it sure is unusual, not too many people eat it: You can buy it in every supermarket, Superstore, Costco, Save on Foods:
It's tasteless!
2.) Pig Hands:
My mom made this Sweet Red Rice Vinegar with Eggs and Pig Hands, apparently good for girls for their menstrual cycle, but there's no harm for guys to eat it. My mom makes it like 10 times a year.
1.) Donkey Dumplings:
I ate this at China, don't blame me, I never knew it was donkey. I ate it, I was like what meat is this? Chicken? My dad's like Donkey... I'm like GROSS!
Basically the meet inside that dough is donkey meat!
It doesn't taste that bad.
That's about it, all pictures found on the internet!
BYE!!!!!!!! This is a long post!
