  • My mom, as far as I can tell, lived the first 18 years of my life solely sustained by Budweiser, Maxwell House, and Marlboro. Other than that... no, I eat more "bizarre" foods than anyone I know ^_^
  • Deer liver/ heart, dandelion greens, rattle snake and goat. me and my sister ate out a lot!
  • My grandfather used to eat head cheese and squab.
  • My Lady! I too have eaten all U mention & more with great Zeal!!! My relatives owned Eckrich & Parrot Meat Packers & we always hand picked what we wanted from the "Back Room". John
  • Eww Ewwwww Eeeeewwww My grandmother used to make sandwiches of American cheese, mayonnaise, and grape jelly. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!
  • Mom used to make fish roe & scrambled eggs (actually not too bad). Her favorite was Liver Pudding (YUCK!). My Dad loved chittlings. My hsb told me his Dad used to make scrambled eggs & squirrel brains on Sunday mornings...(ewwwww, I can't even imagine!)
  • I don't know what my grandparents ate, they died young except for one grandmother. I don't know if it's really that strange, but my father would eat turkey gizzards, hearts and the neck. He said when he was growing up during the depression, people ate everything, nothing was wasted.
  • Limburger, universally known today as a stinky German cheese. He also persuaded me to eat cow's tongue.
  • My mother was very fond of pickled pigs feet. She'd keep a great big jar of them in the fridge. Repulsive.
  • Oh my gosh, yes, Keysa. We're Armenian and my grandmother used to make something called "patcha".. I'm sure of the spelling ..it involved cooking a cow or calf head for hours and hours and hours on the stove..it stunk and drove us out of the house..I think my mom and dad used to eat some..my sis and I couldn't stand being anywhere near the stuff. Talk about disgusting..but I guess in the old country you didn't waste anything and while I can't imagine it tasting good, my grandfather used to consider it a delicacy..maybe because it reminded him of when his mom used to make it when he was little boy! :)
  • Ugh, yes. My grandfather loves cow tongue and scrambled brains....ick!
  • my dad has eaten snake and camels hump. i would like to try snake, maybe not the camels hump lol
  • I don't think so. Not that I'm aware of. But there is nothing I won't eat at least once. The most exotic I have ever had is chocolate covered insects. I need to branch out some I think.
  • Hog-head cheese. Yuck!
  • my great uncle eats squirrel brains and my dad likes pickled pigs feet.
  • Not to dwell on; however, my paternal grandmother told me 'you have to eat two pounds of dirt before you die'. She seemed to suggest that this would not be much of a problem.
  • My grandfather use to eat tripe (belly of the cow) and pickled pigs feet and gizords (chicken balls) ewew i tryed all 3 the 1st one nasty 2nd one was ok till i relized what they where and the 3rd one i use to eat like no tomorrow till i found out what they were EWEWEW
  • I never knew my grandparents but let us just say that my family are... ... Romanian Gypsies (4 of my 3 grandparents were Gypsies, one was not) from the "foothills." My father said that NOTHING, and I mean nothing, went to waste of ANYTHING that could be caught. Do not even bother asking me what the words were for this because not a chance that I could remember or pronounce it. He said that they did were good at spicing things, mostly with things they picked locally, but... NO! I will not eat any of the stuff that Keysha described. However I love SCRAPPLE! Nummy! If I had known them I would have wanted to eat whatever my Gadje grandfather was eating (Gadje = not Gypsy) but then my Gypsy grandmother was doing the cooking so who knows. They were out the foothills, though, and in the lowlands so maybe things were more, well, you know but still... YUCK!
  • My dad says that when the family had fish when he was a child, he and his brothers would fight over who got to eat the fish eyes.
  • Head cheese (made from pig nose and blood sausage) Yuk!!!!
  • Presumeably my Dad ate my Mum once. That freaks me out.
  • My parents like pickled garlic cloves (eaten whole), kidney, cow tonge, etc
  • hmmm this isnt really bizarre but my grandpa eats pears on a piece of lettuce with cottage cheese on top EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
