"Nastiest" food you have personally eaten

Since the TS's thread seems slightly hijacked onto nasty and smelly food items, I thought this thread might be needed.

What is the nastiest, ugliest, smelliest, weirdest, most gross thing that you have eaten or seen eaten. Then please comment as to whether it was actually good or not.

Cooked cow ears, covered in some type of Cambodian bbq sauce was one of the more disgusting *sounding* things I've ever eaten.....but it tasted great.

1993, USMC, SgtMajor invited a handful of NCOs over to his house for dinner where his wife served a very undercooked, large slab of beef liver. It scarred me for life.

Rattlesnake -- tastes like chicken
Fish eyes - helps your vision, hard to chew
Curried fish jaw - so hot it was good
Durian - foul fruit smells for days, but I like it
Ants - did not care for them
Crickets - did not care for them
Spam - nasty stuff

mcwalker, you have failed to follow the simple instructions here.

You are about 5 minutes from the end of your time on this site.

If I were you, I would read and heed the stickies and intros, quickly.

Tempus fugit.

I missed this one somehow.
You Sir, are mistaken. They are called Prarie Oysters. They are most excellent as a snack while working. Simply whack them and throw them on the branding iron fire. Wash down with ice cold Lone Star.

I was a cowboy before Buddha Enlightened me and I got my LGH...

I agree, Ryan wins.

Not to contradict, just to add a regional difference, they're called Rocky Mountain Oysters out here. Absolutely delicious especially when fresh as described above! Even better if they came off of a buffalo.

Nastiest I've ever eaten, puppy stew.

Ugly but delicious - baby squid, raw marinated. and buffalo tongue.

Excellent thread!

I bit into a chicken salad sandwich that started foaming in my mouth one time. I purchased it off a roach coach back when I was doing construction... lets just say that the pink stuff was my friend.

One of the old-timers at my deer camp quickly scurries up the testicles off any bucks that get shot. He par-boils them, then fries em up. I'm not a big fan of the process (if you've ever cleaned and dressed them you know what I'm talking about), or the ritual. I refused to try them on GP for the longest time, but then Jack Daniels twisted my arm one night. Can't say I'll be putting them on the grocery list, but they *were* pretty tasty.

I love mountain oysters. When I was in CO we used to have a couple of big nut fries a year. What a feast. They do have to be cleaned and prepared right though.

The nastiest, to think about anyway, was Sooya. (however it is spelled). It was bite size chunks of meat, on a skewer, cooked over a small open fire (frequently pieces of old tires mixed in with the wood). Then the street vendor wood remove it from the fire and scrape it into a piece of newspaper to wrap it up. This was in Calibar, Nigera (formerly Biafra). It tasted good, looked pretty good, but you were better off not knowing where the animal came from, what the critter was and ignore the newspaper. It was from differant animals. We all loved it, ate it frequently and went to the local bar afterwards. None of us ever had to be de-wormed. Must have been because of the burning Goodyear and sterile meat wrapping.
