Anyone watch Bizarre Foods?

[icygirl]

Ok I know this show has been around for a little while but hey, I don't watch a lot of TV. Fun show to watch if you ask me, Andrew Zimmern does a great job. I like how he really seems to love learning about the different cultures. I haven't seen too many episodes, really should get to watching more.

So my question for yall is: Did you ever see something on that show that looked appetizing to you, that you never thought could possibly look appetizing? Or, something that looked so revolting that you couldn't believe it was even on the show...?

I saw a show where the only thing he could not bear to swallow was... a fruit. Amazing how things turn out huh?

I have seen lots of things in both of those categories but I can;t remember exactly what they were now. It really is a great show. That and Dirty Jobs.

[hoax]

I love that show it is disgustingly delicious!!!!!

The only thing I remember looking good was the cashew nuts. I'd really like to try the apple too. (If you saw the episode you know what I'm talkin about)

The worst was the warm goat/lamb blood. Can't remember. They make blood cake/pudding a few times and it makes me turn the channel. I really like the show.

[Shrap]

Are you talking about that one stinky fruit that they catch from nets as it falls from the tree?
If so that does look quite disgusting.

I really don't know about the rotten shark meat or the fermented fish that they don't eat for years and years

I thought it would be interesting to try some insects he always claims are quite delicious, like crickets and what not, I don't know about the gooey grubs and stuff though.

THe stinky fruits called durian.

I think one of the most repulsive things he ever ate was the Filipino delicacy called Balut. For anyone who doesn't know what it is a 15 day old, fertilized duck (or chicken) egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell. The broth surrounding the embryo is sipped from the egg before the shell is peeled and the yolk and young chick inside can be eaten.

I have a strong stomach but I was queasy after watching that.
