This cheese from Sardinia, Italy is known locally as “casu marzu.” It’s is famous for the cheese fly larvae found inside. The cheese goes beyond the normal fermentation process to near decomposition, a result of the digestive action of the larvae. The insects are introduced into the cheese in order to get it to this stage. Some people clear the larvae before eating but some enjoy this cheese with a side of larvae. Seconds anyone?

Insects.

I hear about people in extreme survival situations eating bugs. yeerch.
I don't think I could do that no matter how close to starving to death I was.
A big ol' freakin spider, or a centipede or something? No thanks, I'll starve.

In addition to everything listed so far...




I can't bring myself to eat anything that is higher on the food chain than we are. Bear comes to mind. I would never eat bear. Pretty much any carnivore.


And for those who say they would never eat insects...ever eat lobster? Shrimp? Crabs? All they are is GIANT BUGS THAT LIVE IN THE OCEAN!!! "No, they're crustaceans," people say. My a$$. They have a bunch of legs, an exoskeleton, and antennae sticking out of their heads. They are BUGS! :pu

I am open to most things at least once or twice but I have no desire for the 100 year egg either!

Heck I eat them once in awhile, honest to god just for the fun of it (usually drunk) there is a place I reccommend here in the states which is on the mild end. http://www.hotlix.com/ I have been known to grab a live cricket once in awhile and have a snack (last time I was too drunk and he did not stay down, ask Andy aka Dooge) They say you consume so many a year while you sleep:dr

A lot of the stuff I see posted in "good eats" here! And, most of the stuff posted in this forum. I'm a picky eater, but what I do like, I eat too much of!

I've eaten bugs before and didn't really mind it. There's a place in L.A., Typhoon (http://www.typhoon.biz/), that specializes in it. We started off with a small bowl of ants. They weren't my favorite since they were kind of bitter. Then they brought out crickets with shoe string potatoes and garlic. Quite tasty and a good play on textures. Then we progressed to the chicken stuffed waterbugs. Man, those came out the same way they went in. :D Anyway, it was our first time eating insects so we also ordered some 'normal' food.

My grandpappy made some squirrel stew when I was a youngin. At least that's what he said it was. The whole meal was game...duck, venison, pheasant...and squirrel stew. Good vittles.

Were they really waterbugs? Or were they those giant L.A. cockroaches that scuttle around on the sidewalks at night? :r

I guess Haggis doesn't exactly call my name and that Century egg does kinda sound digusting but other than that there isn't too much I can think of. Dog maybe? I don't think I would eat dog.

Wow, that really limits your life experience, my friend. I sorta feel sorry you, but if you're content with your diet, that's what matters...as long as it doesn't kill ya.
