    No innuendo meant btw....

    Found this website and am planning an exotic BBQ in the summer. Am getting the lads to stump up £20 each (at least 5 of us) and we're gonna order all kinds of off the wall **** just to say we've tried it.

    I went to a hot stone restraunt recently too where I tried Gazelle, Kangaroo and Shark.

    You're brave ACS, I've eaten Buffalo when in India, but that's about it, I'm pretty good at trying various fish, but can't quite bring myself to try Squid, or cockles and whelks.
    I do have a cousin who ate Guinea Pig whilst on an adventure holiday in Peru, :emoticon-0119-puke:

    I have always wanted to taste glory, but I'm **** out of luck being a Newcastle fan I guess...

    Went to Lapland when I was 4 (with adults, I'm not Fiennes...), had reindeer bolognese. As you'd expect, I'm not exactly going to produce culinary inside info on the taste, but from what I do remember it was pretty similar to beef, just a bit tougher.

    LTF , squid is the best thing ever.. I've been trying to perfect the squid dish I eat at my favourite restaurant in Spain.. It's tremendous dunked in egg then seasoned flour then deep fried served with garlic mayo..


    Acs as to eating horse, don't think I could do that. I'd happily eat buffalo, goat, bison just not anything viewed as a pet.. Like I will never ever go to the Far East on holiday as I will end up locked up as I would not be able to control my anger at seeing someone kill and eat dog..

    70% of the red meat that is eaten by humans in the world is Goat believe it or not (and most of us have never tried it)

    Swordfish in Florida, and went to Sheffield for the World Snooker final in May, they had a around the world eating market I had a Boar Burger Emu Burger and Kangaroo Burger. but other than that its boring pig/cow and chicken.

    Always been a bit of a fussy eater and wouldn't eat meat as a kid, the thought of eating dead bodies just didn't appeal to me. I did like cockles and whelks though, rather surprisingly. Wouldn't have them now though, even though I do eat meat.

    My sister got me a voucher for my birthday...Best advice is ignore all the pre-made stuff (meatballs etc.) and just go for the steak and mince.

    So far I've eaten camel and cumin burgers, crocodile meatballs (just ok, but very chewy and a little artificial tasting) kangaroo steak and horse fillet ...those were nice!

    Long time no see Jwag, thought you'd maybe gone on holiday with Obi and Sir Bobby Robson's jig of delight. You haven't seen them anywhere have you?
