Yes--it was brains. I haven't been able to eat any since.adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475464273497987868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15196744.post-1149306552305332352006-06-02T23:49:00.000-04:002006-06-02T23:49:00.000-04:00"Kat a Kut" sounds almost like Haggis.

Remember Raiders of the Lost Ark, that scene where Kate Capshaw passes out after seeing eyeballs in the soup? that would be my reaction too.Chic Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12883236924370716198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15196744.post-1149198509297114172006-06-01T17:48:00.000-04:002006-06-01T17:48:00.000-04:00I've tried #2, 3 and 4 from your list.

I didn't have the stomach for it.<BR/><BR/>I actually like Bhaija (brain) stir fried with lots of garlic. It has the consistency of fatty liver. Of course, I was in my teens then - when the body can process vast amounts of junk. If I try one now, I'm pretty sure I'd drop dead from a choked artery. Brain is mostly fat - specifically cholesterol.<BR/><BR/>Alligator DOES taste like chicken. I had some friend gator "tenders" in New Orleans once.<BR/><BR/>The weirdest meat I've had is Ostrich. It's red, dense and chewy. Didn't care for it too much.<BR/><BR/>One thing I refuse to eat is eyeballs. My food cannot stare back at me.<BR/><BR/>For a true food fear factor experience, I've been recommended the markets in Guangzhou (Canton). I had a little preview in Hong Kong, but never made it to the mainland.Ameethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10312886958581237705noreply@blogger.com
