The weirdest things (to some people) that I’ve eaten in my life, so far:

Chocolate Covered Ants

Alligator

Rattlesnake

Rocky Mountain Oysters

Bobcat (like pork in color and texture)

Raccoon (I make a mean ‘Coon & Kraut’ in the Crock Pot)

Bear and Elk, on a regular basis

Wild Turkey & Pheasant

Morel and Golden Oyster Mushrooms, on a regular basis

Cannot tolerate cleaning and cooking rabbit or squirrel. Blech! Too rat-like for me. :(

When I was a young child, my parents were avid mushroom hunters, and we would often have Morels and the Oyster mushrooms, plus “inky caps” that grew in the side yard.

My dad figured out a way to dry out the oyster mushrooms, then they could be used “later”. I don’t know the details.

Hi. I hope you are doing well.

Fun thread...

Chocolate Covered Ants

Alligator

Rattlesnake

Rocky Mountain Oysters

Wild Turkey & Pheasant.

All yummy.

Don’t like possums,raccoons or bear.

Hunted them all.

Quail and grouse too, are great.

My 2 cents.
