Ethiopean food. I was really hesitant to try it, but once I did I loved it and would go back to that restaurant at least once a month.

what about fried insects? I tried this in Beijing, Guangzhou and Bangkok.

I've heard that there's a special cheese in the western world. Worms crawl across the cheese, and people eat them all together. How you call this kind of cheese?

In a Yunnan restaurant I had "double boiled beef penis soup". Yum.

But my daughter lived in Laos for 5 years and ate virtually everything that moves--BBQ bat, rat, squirrel, chicken embryos, snake, insects, silk worms... YUK! No wonder they've invented that sinus-searing h-o-t chilli dipping sauce they use on everything...

The Australian Commonwealth Coat of Arm has a kangaroo and an emu.

Once in a an outback bistro, had a mixed grill comprising kangaroo, emu and camel steak.

I do not think there are many out there who had eaten their national symbols in one go.

In Laos, had cow's uterus soup once. Yum......

You know what?!

I came across an article about eating unborn foetus in China!!

They actually cook those poor babies in soup!!

I am not sure if that's true but it's so disgusting!!!
