Balut? They sell that on my street everyday. Sometimes I wake up to the street vendors’ insistence that people buy it. Then again, I don’t live in America.
Try scorpion intestines with squid ink. Looks disgusting, and probably tastes disgusting, too.
Hm. Yours is one of the few entertaining blogs that used the word ’spork’ and didn’t cause me to cringe; my friends, in an attempt to reduce my aversion to the word, renamed the utensil ‘foon’.

It saddens me that you dont require god in your life. To enjoy, and awaken your taste buds with our worlds exoctic cuisnies. Have fun in hell. . However, the point of your blog was to exercise your self proclaimed weirdness to your readers. . . . Try zebra vaginas; from my understanding it taste much like chicken.

Haha, this is great. Also, I work in research with chicken eggs. We have these things called embryo spoons to get the embryos out of the eggs, so your comment about embryo forks particularly amused me. I’ll make sure to give you one

I LOVE both unagi and salmon roe - I love the way salmon roe pops in my mouth. Oh, it’s so good.

Tongue isn’t actually that bad. Especially if they slice it thin enough. Kopperman’s does a combo sandwich; tongue, pastrami and corned beef with mustard. The ultimate in classic American Jew food. And if you ask nicely, the staff might actually bring out a whole tongue for you to stare at while you are eating.

The brain sandwich on the other hand is just wierd. It’s like deep-fried mush. The texture only made me choke on it. I was so creeped out by the fact it was brain, that they could have served me boiled carpet and I wouldn’t have noticed a difference.

The Butterfly House does have larvae for you. Once again, really weird texture. Kind of like popping a zit into your mouth. A really huge zit.

I’m assuming you already done a solid sushi run. Unagi, salmon roe and the likes?

Have fun SG. I can’t wait to hear what you think of eating brains.

Duck testicles. That’s a highlight of strange eating.

Well of course we’d have to eat larvae, and not adult insects! We’re atheists!

Those are some good, challenging recommendations, HanaLena. I’ve been wanting to try tongue, so I might have to give that tongue sandwich a go. I’ve heard bad things about how brains taste, though, so that might have to be last on my list!

Oh, I will see to it that we find worms. Oh yes.

I was thinking I’d really like to eat some insects. Preferably baby or fetal insects.

Well, you may have a hard time finding that in St. Louis. Since my family is from there (I go back atleast once a year), I’ve got some favorites I would love for you to try.

1)Bun Bo Hue at Pho Grand down on South Grand. Its a hot and spicy soup made with pigs feet.

2) Kopperman’s Specialty Foods and Delicatessen serves the best tongue sandwich. (My Jewish family actually eats this stuff just because they like it)

3) Schottzie’s Bar and Grill, a bar in South County. The pizza is good, but you need to go there for the Brain Sandwich. Don’t worry, its pork so you don’t have to worry about mad cow disease. Deep fried pork brain between a couple of slices of rye, who could ask for more.

4) If you want to explore the rich culture of bug eating but can’t afford the plane ticket to Asia, the Butterfly House serves a crunchy treat. The chocolate covered ones are pretty good but I dare you to go with the sour cream and onion cricket box.

There is your challange sir. I throw down the gaunlet.

Oh and did you know you’ve been referenced.
