What are some food/drinks from your country or region that people from other countries or regions find strange?
>Georgia, USA
Alligator is probably the first thing that comes to mind.
I've heard people comment on grits being strange.
Most people, especially Europeans, find the way we prepare tea strange, though. Prepared 1 gallon (3.8 L) at a time, with 1-2+ cups (236-473+mL) per gallon. Served cold.
How about you, Sup Forums?
Wew, that was supposed to say 1-2+ cups (236-473+mL) of sugar
I'll help you. We eat ñachi, which is fresh blood. You literally pour it from a lamb's trachea, into a recipient that already has garlic, coriander, very smalled diced onion, and lemon juice, which you stir until it coagulates, then cut it into cubes and enjoy with fresh crunchy bread and a cup of proper red wine.
Is it good?
I-is it good?
Asado de armadillo totalmente uma delicia
Actually it is great. Think jello texture but with that garlic, herbs, lemon twist. It's a fucking nightmare though because you have to be near the poor thing dying, but you consume the whole animal. Nothing is wasted (if you do, you are regarded as a retard because you are unable to make the most of a precious thing)
I love this uma delicia threads. Best of Sup Forums this year. And I love the fact that /ck/ gets btfo and everyday more irrelevant because of us
Probably chapulines (a type of grasshopper), they taste quite good, i don't know why other countries dislike eating insects there's literally nothing wrong with them

strangle food
Snails with garlic butter
How expensive are those? I want to eat proper mexican food so bad but I'm a poorfag. I watch a lot of mexican cooking vids to try to cook mexican moles. I've got a shitty job right now with huge debt because of reasons but I'm going to make it one day and visit.
Frog legs
They're so fucking good but fucking expensive, too
We eat those. My grandma purged them with wheat flour. Garlic, coriander, butter and white pepper. A dash of white wine.
Huitlacoche, a type of fungus that infects corn.
nothing because we make good home-tier casseroles
the most disgusting thing is probably alcohol desu
We braise them on a wine based sauce
Eel pie is probably the weirdest british food
don't think anyone eats it apart from northerners
What's the taste of that?? It looks kinda yucky
I've had both of these, it could be the way it was cooked, but I'd readily eat the frog over the snails
Social conventions see it as the food of poor people. Also, soft urban dwellers have a strong aversion to the sight of insects, let alone eating them.
Sui generis
Is it like conger eel?
There are sardinian and corsican cheese with actual maggots in them
I always found shell soup to be kinda disgusting desu, you're literally drinking their blood, it does taste good, though. Just add a little bit of lemon, salt, and a beer as a beverage and you're set.
Imagine the taste of those maggots feeding on cured cheese. Damn. I need to get me a rich milf.
Are those oysters? Can you explain the dish?
Yep, they're raw oysters, you pretty much eat them fresh, nothing fancy about it.
I've had Japanese eel which is p good, but the way Brits prepare it makes it seem much less appealing for some reason.
I've heard of this one. Do they eat it with maggots actually still in it?
>Oyster blood
I eat steamed oysters a lot. Do the raw ones actually have enough blood to do that?
>I've heard of this one. Do they eat it with maggots actually still in it?
Some do, some remove them before eating.
One must know that, when disturbed, maggots can jump out of the cheese up to 6-7 inches away, so eyes protection is recommended if you choose to eat it with them.
>Do the raw ones actually have enough blood to do that?
They do, but they have to use a lot of them to make a considerable amount of soup.
No need to ruin something that is pretty much perfect.
>Boy, am I hungry! I think I want some cheese, better grab my protective goggles.
Pihtija. Basically meat jello with some spices. Fucking disgusting imo and it's made from low quality meat or smoked meat but older people love it for some reason
Some people eat "head cheese" here, but for some reason meat and aspic just sounds disgusting to me
>made from low quality meat or smoked meat but older people love it for some reason
You shouldn't be posting here pleb. Google aspic
>I like frozen low quality meat soup
I feel bad for poor people really because that's essentially what this is
This is a Guajolota, it's a tamale inside a bun.
People all over THIS country hate it, except us.
>frozen
You don't know what you are talking about bro. Aspic is literally a delicia. You have to go through a long process to make it. I make head cheese so I know what I'm talking about. You could embrace your culture instead of trying to look american eating pasteurized processed shit and getting cancer by the age of 30 because not ingesting enough micronutrients.
Drunk winter food?
I like most of Serbian cuisine just not that.
Post serbian cousine that everyone has to try at least once before dying. Doesn't have to be anything elaborate, it only has to be a delicia.
>Galicia, Spain
Pulpo a Feira
boiled octopus, traditionally served with a little olive oil and red pepper, in wooden plates
you either love it or hate it
wish we had those octopus balls like japan
When I was in high school there was a Russian exchange student that used to bring something that looked like that. It didn't taste bad, but it's weird as fuck. I can see why people would like it though.
Pulpo a best. Expensive though.
shkembe chorba
basically beef or pick stomach soup, usually with milk and spices
>octopus
>strange
Nigger octopus is GOAT, especially with some paprika, olive oil and bread. I thought Spain would have weirder food, like France and Italy.
This is the weirdest thing I've heard about. We eat stomach but mixing it with milk is very strange. Going to look into that. Is it delicious?
That's a lot of sugar?
What ever we have so do our neighbors so there isn't anything unique but Serbian BBQ is made better imo at least in the south. Also we can use pork so some Turkish dishes are improved
yeah we pretty much just put paprike and olive oil innit
its the only region that eats this in spain so i thought it was rare
cheap af here
Can you provide yt vids about the serbian bbq? I am seriously interested
Crabs, shells and fish are cheap here. But pulpo for some reason is cheap. We make do with Jibias (you have it too, a big squid sort of animal, choco?)
>What ever we have so do our neighbors
Forgot to add, that's the story of every continent. But every nation adds it's thing. And that's precious
You cannibal
Octopus strange? Is common in every coastal city here, or at least it would be common if it wasn't so expensive.
I think many prefer to remove suckers and parts of the skin though.
(Which you have to keep if you want to prepare pic)
Tortoise, turtle, snapper, whatever you call it.
Don't armadillos carry leprosy?
this isn't strange anywhere though
god tier food, especially for hangover
Don't forget cacti, ant larvae, deep fried pig skin and worms
Truly uma delicia
