Ok, undercooked squirrel or goat doesn't even come close to some of these. But what about jellyfish, sans tentacles.

Rhade cooked chicken head with rice and the crap sucked up through a bamboo straw during the partaking of their rice wine.

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.

Worst:
Two lobster tails that had gone bad. Ridiculous story but I finished them. Then I wished I hadn't. I also hated the only batch of rattlesnake I've ever eaten. Maybe I just got a bad portion or something but it tasted....copperish, like I had a penny in my mouth or something.
Best:
Fried gator tail is the food of the gods.
Ostrich (emu is not as good.)
I think buffalo is scrumptious, but never tried the testicles.

I ate a Mopane worm (cooked) in Namibia and I have to be honest, I didn't care for it. I smiled as I ate it though-- didn't want to insult the people who were feeding me. If you're interested there's a picture of some Mopane worms here:

I remember Rocky Mountain Oysters being on the menu at The Fort. I can't remember if I tried some (I probably did); I was with my project/engagement team, and the beer was flowing. I do remember the buffalo marrow bones, simply delicious. That and smoking cigars out by the teepee and fire after dinner.

The Fort, in Morrison, CO is fantastic. The menu is great, the food is great, the only thing not so great is the bill.

Never had oysters in a restaurant. LOL
Marrow bones are awesome, you just throw 'em in the fire, and when the bones start cracking, it's a rather distinctive pop, rake 'em out of the fire, hit 'em with a hammer and then spoon out the marrow.

Rocky Mountain Oysters do not come from bulls. Deer or elk (and now buffalo).

Well, after you're done 'harvesting' they're no longer bulls (bull elk, bull deer, bull cattle, or bull buffalo) anymore anyway. What's that old DI line, "Only 2 things come from Texas....."
