so i went to our State Fair this past Saturday. animals, farm veggies and giant pumpkins, games, amusement rides, food, etc. etc. fun stuff.

beside deep-fried everything and elephant ears, these fairs will sometimes have wierd or unsual food. so at the fair, one vendor had alligator and i tried it.

here it is!



and i didn't like it. or at least this version of it. the batter was thick and hard and i couldn't taste any alligator meat really. :/

but later in the day, i stumbled upong this at another booth.



alligator jerky. and it was tasty! tasted kinda like salmon actually.

anyway i just wanted to know what folks here on the forum have eaten. anything wierd, unusual or non-traditional? was it good, meh or awful? please share.
