re: #307 Learned Mother of Zion

OK, everybody, what is the weirdest thing you have ever eaten?

I am not adventurous when it comes to sampling new food. I once ate goat meat at a Sephardic bar mitzvah in Israel. I don’t even remember how it tasted because it was coated in a spicy, hot hot hot sauce.

Most kids will not eat weird food offered to them, it looks like Obama was more adventurous than most kids.

Hmm.

Probably giraffe.

Crayfish and frogs legs were just part of hunting/gathering along a local river in my youth.

The Malaysia/Vietnam trip included some odd vegetables or fruit; e.g. durian. Though I also had stingray tail at a Thai seafood place - that was delicious. And getting into seafood beyond that included eating whelk and small crabs that were eaten whole, shell and all (crunchy).
