My partner is *far* too squeamish to consider such food.
I don't think I've ever eaten raw lobster. I can imagine it's rather good though - especially when it's that fresh!1) Yes. Yummy.
When you say the "guts" do you mean just the intestinal tract that runs through the tail? Presume the rest of its inner workings are left in the head?
I've had numerous strange beasts in China and Hong Kong. The strangest one was hasma, which is a dessert made of frogs ovaries/fallopian tubes. It's like a neutral tasting sponge.
In Sweden, apart from surstömming, I had vodka that had been flavoured by having a beaver's scent gland steeped in it. Very musky. I also had bear tongue there, though I have no recollection of its taste.
A crisp sandwich. Ready salted. Exotic how? you may ask. Well, it was on multigrain bread, that's how.

What crisps? Only "exotic" if it was Hula Hoops.
Dunno how I forgot this one: garlic ice cream. Not so much exotic as perverted. In Gilroy, CA, of course.
Oh, don't mock till you've tried fish finger and Skips sandwiches. If you want fu-fu, get some boutique bakery sourdough bread. I'm classy.
Fish in Hong Kong. Not particularly unusual, but I got to choose it out of the tank it was swimming in.

Sounds good. With a bit of thousand island dressing perhaps?
Pie club sandwich sounds fantastic. One of those things you "must try before you die" - and best make it the last thing on the list...
Cows tongue in France, that was rubbery and horrible.
Fantastic lunchtime liver and onions in Lebanese restaurant central Freetown, Sierra Leone. Liver of what is unknown to this day.

Just remembered:
Indonesia - Durian. Delicious. A big favourite in Indonesia. Not allowed in many hotels or on aircraft though!
Crocodile.It might have been badly prepared but the croc I had was like slimey chicken.

Antelope doesn't taste like chicken

Horrible stuff. Even the smell of durian stalls in the cities makes me gag.
Acquired taste for sure. Presumably acquired by removing one's tastebuds with sulphuric acid and a wire brush?
Anyway, scotch egg. They must have weird chickens up there.Yum.

LOL. Mrs Cyclist is Cornish. One day I'll get her to review Ginsters for you. When someone has moved this thread to NSFW ...

Mrs Fuzzy has links to that there Cornwall and we make regular trips. The main reason for the trips is visiting rellies BUT, the thing that makes it bearable is the return journey with a boot full of Healeys medium dry scrumpy cider, Roddas clotted cream and a several of boxes of Crantock Bakery pasties.
Proper Cornish pasties are a thing of beauty. Ginsters are the most acceptable substitute for when the supplies run out.

Ais kacang, anyone? :sick:
Yes, that really is sweetcorn. And kidney beans. And a generous splat of durian in there. Truly horrendous.

I make my own lower-carb versions, with runny yolks, lincolnshire sausage(meat) and rolled in parmesan. They are the yummiest.
Last week I spotted an emporium claiming to sell "Vietnamese Street Food". Closer examination revealed that it was in fact a restaurant with no takeaway menu. This was in Islington, mind, where there is a long and (dis)honourable tradition of words meaning whatever the bright spark at the Institute of Advanced Language-Mangling decides they mean.
Salt Liquorice from Finland.
A work colleague brought back several packets for about 10 people. He later admitted he did it as a joke as he found it disgusting and thought everyone at work would too.
He was mostly right. I was the only one who ate more than one piece. I ended up with it all.
I also like salt lassi (the yoghurt based Indian drink - not the dog). Most staff in Indian restaurants in the UK are surprised when I ask if they'll do a salt lassi instead of a sweet one.

You are thinking of processed cheese food products. And they're heaven in a tube, squirty scan, or individual shrinkwrapped portion.

Went into a local pub recently, and in a food cabinet they had scotch eggs for sale at £1 each.I went into a pub down by the river last night and the scotch eggs were £3.50 each. Plus draught bitter at over £4.
However, they came in a choice of plain, balti and marmite flavours.

You got a cheap pint at least.
Today I had an excellent pint of bitter at The Old Swan, Netherton. Price was £2.20 :thumbsup:

Even scarier when there are no results on Google.
a) What is it?
b) Is there a plain English name for it?
c) What does it do in food?
d) What does it do in people?

Sadly, my processed cheese food product looks quite benign. I'm think benzoyl peroxi-anything would rapidly release peroxide, so I suspect that's not in cheese food. Benzoic acid salts are a typical food preservative, though they've mostly moved to sorbic acid and similar carboxylic acids because benzene (presumably these people avoid salt because chlorine gas).QuoteMilk, Whey, Milk Protein Concentrate, Milkfat, Sodium Citrate, Contains less than 2% of Calcium Phosphate, Whey Protein Concentrate, Salt, Lactic Acid, Sorbic Acid as a Preservative, Cheese Culture, Annatto and Paprika Extract (color), Enzymes, Vitamin D3.
Quite disappointing. I grew up on insensible amounts of e-numbers and colour gamut heavily tilted towards the oranges.
