Bull testicles are known around here as "Rocky Mountain Oysters." I've lived in Colorado and Wyoming and had hem in both places. Fried correctly, they are delicious.
Souse, also known as Head Cheese in the Southern U.S, is well known in especially the old timers cuisine. I would never touch it when my grandfather bought it but he simply adored it as a snack.
Souse is a type of head cheese. Southern born and raised and grew up eating souse meat on a cracker with hot sauce. It’s actually pretty tasty, especially when it’s spicy.
@@dollyweaver7048 I really shouldn't judge things like souse. I eat vienna sausages with hot sauce. It really couldn't be much different but you can't see the individual parts like you can in souse.
Up here in N.Y. (right by the Canadian border) in Buffalo, there are still 2 kinds of head cheese...sweet and also sour. Another food item very closely similar is...was...a Polish food (pronounced) Gada-let-ah. Nowhere to be found anymore. Even custom orders from ordinary folk are no more. It was usually made in a cake or loaf pan. Cut a slice, top with vinegar and lemon juice, some salt and pepper, a slice of rye bread...mmm mmm good!
Fried bull testicles were a regular feature of our hot lunch at school in Kansas 65 years ago. The regs were a lot looser on outside food being used in school lunches. Whenever a farmer castrated his bull calves, we feasted! Also popular in the area were 'turkey fries', fried turkey testicles.
For whatever it's worth, I've had Honey Roasted Crickets before. I know that's not the "craziest" of all of the adventurous foods out there, but they are surprisingly good. A lot like sunflower seeds.. And apparently super rich in protein. Also; my dad used to be absolutely o.b.s.e.s.s.e.d. with 1000 year old eggs. 😅
I would try almost anything twice. The first time and the last time. Some people see this and think it's only once. Also Haggis, if properly cooked, is to die for.
I tried a good chunk of food on this list. Stang is really good. The squid ink ice cream is pretty good. The silk worms and grasshoppers are kinda bitter but good, but locusts and crickets are better. Marmite, canned chicken, and natto are edible… And last the pig ear salad is pretty good… but keep in mind it’s usually a drinking snack, so I was pretty hammered when I tried it.
You should try freeze-dried durian. The lovely flavor but the texture is like astronaut ice cream. I prefer fresh durian, but the freeze -dried is also fabulous.
Insects are a great protein source. My brother is an entomologist and ran a program for school groups that allowed students to try them. The right ones prepared the right way are great snacks. I know this because I was his lab rat. 😂 If anyone wants to find these foods, you can visit Jungle Jim’s International Market in Fairfield, Ohio (a little north of Cincinnati). That place is so much fun. My family, starting with my mom, has been going there when it was just a fruit cart. Now we make one or two visits a year bringing my son with us. He’s almost 16 and he LOVES going there.
Down here in the US South, hog or bull testicles (criadillas, @9:18) are called Rocky Mountain Oysters.... (and there's also a delicacy called "rooster fries"... care to guess where they come from?!?) 🤣 Blessed Be, & Peace! 🙏☮
Homemade canned chicken is delicious My mom’s family did a lot of canning and you don’t eat the bones It’s extra concentrated flavor and great for using to make chicken soup
Cuy is not just Peruvian but ecuadorian too! And it is a different species of guinea pig than the one you are used to in the United States. Furthermore it is delicious and more nutritious because they eat only herbs and grass. Cuy is a delicacy in both Perú and ecuador and something I miss when I am not there.
I visited family in Peru when I was young but never knew cuy was a food. I think I would definitely try it. It seems not much different in concept than eating rabbit or squirrel which is common in the U.S. What does it taste like? Or does the flavor come only from the spices? Garlic is a staple for me.
@@rattlecat5968 depending on how it's prepared it tastes like a saltier pork or pork in general just be careful not to eat too much as it is infectious/inflammatory and eating too much can cause nausea vomiting and diarrhea
I think to myself rattlesnake is my weirdest to date though chocolate covered ants are on the list as well, texture of rice crispies and they type they used had a hint of cinnamon quite good.
My uncle says 🐍snake tastes like chicken. I asked him if God ran out of flavors because they'll alway say wild foods taste like chicken, and how does he know the chicken doesn't taste like rattlesnake? If it was do or die I'd stick with the ants. 😂
Hi Mike! Yum. Here in Fort Worth, Texas aka Cowtown, beef testicles also called Mountain Oysters/calf fries and Lamb fries are quite popular. I'm Cajun, and we have our share of things that others might find weird. My dad used to make hogs head cheese, black boudin has pigs blood in it and they can't sell it anymore, but you can always make your own. Of course crawfish are great but I remember the look of horror on this lady from up norths face when she came to her first crawfish boil. Hey, they're just miniature lobsters!
I've had bull testicles deep fried. I thought it was oysters at first. It was surprisingly tasty. Butte Montana used to have a "Testicle Festival" where bull testicles were the featured dish.
Rocky Mountain oysters , fried bull testicles are a tradition at the fall round ups! But it’s calves that are getting cut. Not full grown bulls. They are delicious and a nice pick me up on those long days… I would try most of the stuff on the list but I’d really like to get some worm jerky. 😂
That is very good advice that you gave everyone on your channel. You said try everything once and that’s smart. You don’t want to find out you missed out on something good. Sincerely Lincoln.
At 12:49 ...Again, while I lived in Hawaii, I went to Chinatown and bought Century Eggs...It took some time, but I eventually loved them...in modest amounts...
The frog one actually made my stomach turn But I'd give the worm jerky, natto and the chicken pudding a go. Canned chicken is just wrong on Soo many levels Marmite is vile! The reason a lot of people don't like it is because they put way too much spread on the cracker, you only need a tiny amount. Surprised jellied eels didn't get a mention
There's several of these I'd try if given the chance. I'm most interested in the stang drink though. And I'd buy a snake wine but only for keeps bc it looks wicked.
I saw on a British tv show that a couple had a can chicken for dinner on their 50th anniversary. It was from their wedding dinner 50 years earlier. 😮. Something that most people won't eat is peanut butter toast with mustard and a hotdogs. Its very good and i believe tht peanuts and mustard are used alot in Thai food. I encourage you to try it.
As somebody with serious sensory issues, no. I will not try everything once. Some things are just too dangerous to even entertain putting in my mouth, including a lot of the stuff in this list. I'm risking vomiting and emotional distress, not just "ick."
Souse is also an item in the Southern US! All the collagen gels around the meat & connective tissue. Kinda like aspic. I've eaten it sliced thin as sandwich meat. I like it.
we eat moose tongue where i'm from. we try to eat everything from an animal so nothing goes to waste. what we don't or can't eat we leave behind for other wildlife. we lay tobacco and thank the creator and the animals spirit if our hunt was successful. we also don't overhunt and we share with our elders in the community.
Squid ink is also used in some Italian dried pastas, seafood Mediterranean dishes from both the west and east of that area and I have had tinned mussels in squid ink, but I prefer my ice cream sweet, not savoury. You can buy squid ink sachets for seafood dishes from deli counters, sometimes. In the UK we have different types of Marmite, extra strong, chilli and regular, plus special editions like Guinness flavour and edible gold flecks. Plus we have Marmite crispbread thins and Marmite flavoured Cheddar cheese, plus Marmite flavoured snacks, like crisps ( potato chips). 😋 Because I love Marmite, I also love caviar, I've had lumpfish, salmon and trout, but I would love to try sturgeon. My late father gave me jellied eels once, like fishy rubber, so I am not going to eat snails, ever. 🤢
@@LostSoulchild89 Slightly salty and sweet, a bit like those strong flavoured potato snacks, but it does blend well with seafood, because of what it is. The easiest way to try it is tinned seafood containing it or fresh seafood items from a supermarket deli/seafood section. There are pastas flavoured with it or maybe try it in a seafood restaurant.
Fried Tofu tripped my gag reflex harder and faster than anything I've experienced...lol The only thing I've put in my mouth that I couldn't swallow...lol Texture is everything
I hate licorice, but a man who worked for my grandfather had given me salmiakki when I was a kid. 40 years later, I'm able to get it online. Not quite the same, but it is close to what I remember. I have given it to some of my friends and they can't stand it.
17:13 why are the sodas/drinks in case upside down? I had to rewind to hear what was being said because I hyper focused on the upside drinks too long 😂
Hey Mike, Sorry to rain on your parade, but your researchers have let you down slightly with the Marmite info..... It was 'invented' in the UK in the very early 1900's and is huge there. We can buy it down here in NZ too - but there are two different versions here. The one your clip showed is not available here as "Marmite" since a different company sells a (vastly inferior imo) product under that name, which is more akin to the Auzzie Vegemite. Jars which look like those you had in the clip contain the British recipe, but can only be sold here as "Our Mate", which refers to an old advertising campaign in the UK. Oddly enough, that's the only thing out of the list I've tried - or ever would - but I've always loved it. Love the channel & keep up the great work.
Anything you haven't tried? I've never laid in the road and been ran over by an 18-wheeler, but I'm certain I don't like that, either. Some things ya just know ✌️😂.
Here's the thing...I said I will try anything once..untill I saw this list...NO! .. Everything No! I don't need to try poison to know it's poison and have always drawn a line at bugs... this is the ultimate "stick to your diet list" ...the best way to discourage eating...saving it for future times when I am having trouble fasting...watch this..lose appetite..thank you for your help! Lol😂
McDonald's in Japan once a year would put out squid ink big macs. The patty and bun will all be colored and flavored with it. There is a Mexican restaurant in Houston, you can order fried grasshoppers as an appetizer.. it comes with guacamole, beans and warm fajita wraps. It's actually tasty. In Bali Indonesia, I've had frog leg skewers. Those were amazing.
and the sheep have to be perfectly deboned to have the deboned chicken placed inside them before they can be placed inside the deboned camel...WTF?!?! (and, remember, sometimes the bull wins)
Balut, fermented three week old duck egg, boiled and eaten out of the shell, should have made the list. It's not horrible. Quite full of flavors and textures. Sannakji, live octopus, should have been number one. It's the one thing that I've declined the offer.
I've had souse and ackee and 100 year egg. Souse was good since the meat was diced very small. Who's had alligator? It has the consistency of chicken, but tastes aquatic.
Seriously, most of the lists made my stomach very queasy and I still feel nausea! Ok, since the early 80s I take it as Paul McCartney, 'nothing with a face!' I'm a vegetarian, for ethnical reasons towards the animals! I love animals way too much to ever cause their death in order to fill my stomach. Enough of this, it's NO protest or attempt to change people's mind -everyone his/her own! Still love you, Mike! Well done like always.
The only thing I draw the line at with food is I won't eat anything considered 'babies'. Other than that, I'll try anything once. You should let me cook a gourmet meal for you Mike! I'm an adventurous eater too ❤
I used to get tonsillitis constantly at 18 I drank a 5th of Jose quarvo ( sorry bad speller) with the worm. It was gone. I have not had tonsillitis since. I am now 55.
We used canned whole chicken when I was growing up in the Alaskan bush. We used to separate out the bones to feed to the dogs, then mix the meat into rice or noodles, or make enchiladas. Think of it as rotisserie chicken that's been made shelf-stable.
Ok I don't understand the part about eating a Guinea pig.. Why can't they export them as pets? I've got a pair for $500. They would have made a small fortune if they sell them in the international market instead of eating them.
I’ve cooked pig ears before, I watch way too many bizarre cuisine shows and fell I love with a local Asian market, so I got to eat durian finally, it’s not bad. I also came across frozen sheets of pork skin that I salted, cut into strips and dried…after dried I could make my own tasty, fresh pork rinds whenever I wanted. Since moving to stupid Florida I haven’t been able to visit any ethnic markets as I am staying with family who probably wouldn’t put up with my weird nonsense, lol. Once I find my own place however, I shall try and wholesale my nonsense again I have so many things I want to learn about plus I miss my homemade pho.

I got them here once at a truckstop in Iowa. I thought they were good of course I like anything battered then deep fried.
They really are I'm from Montana
I'm in Texas, I've eaten 'em. They're really pretty good.
Appreciate your expert pronunciations of these delicacies in their native tongue.

The only thing I draw the line at with food is I won't eat anything considered 'babies'. Other than that, I'll try anything once. You should let me cook a gourmet meal for you Mike! I'm an adventurous eater too ❤
lamb and veal? not sure what you mean by "babies"
@pinbi7
Definitely no lamb or veal or suckling pigs. Won't try Balut either.
I used to get tonsillitis constantly at 18 I drank a 5th of Jose quarvo ( sorry bad speller) with the worm. It was gone. I have not had tonsillitis since. I am now 55.
I'm an adventurous eater too, I can't bring myself to do the P egg not the black and green looking one😂
The marmite you showed originated in the UK
@17:24 why do you have the background upsidedown? 😂😂
I'm a fan of Marmite and its cousin Vegemite.
Souse is also easy to find in southeast US
19:28 I’m a Chicagoan and never come across Malört in a bar.
We used canned whole chicken when I was growing up in the Alaskan bush. We used to separate out the bones to feed to the dogs, then mix the meat into rice or noodles, or make enchiladas. Think of it as rotisserie chicken that's been made shelf-stable.
Ok I don't understand the part about eating a Guinea pig.. Why can't they export them as pets? I've got a pair for $500. They would have made a small fortune if they sell them in the international market instead of eating them.
I’ve cooked pig ears before, I watch way too many bizarre cuisine shows and fell I love with a local Asian market, so I got to eat durian finally, it’s not bad. I also came across frozen sheets of pork skin that I salted, cut into strips and dried…after dried I could make my own tasty, fresh pork rinds whenever I wanted. Since moving to stupid Florida I haven’t been able to visit any ethnic markets as I am staying with family who probably wouldn’t put up with my weird nonsense, lol. Once I find my own place however, I shall try and wholesale my nonsense again I have so many things I want to learn about plus I miss my homemade pho.
