Or Taco Bell........

lol I don’t eat any of that stuff. I have ate a bunch of crazy things though. If it tastes good to you, I say, have at it.

This could get weird….

Ever had ox tongue?

They were out of all those at Publix last time I shopped.

I've had ceviche made from sea urchins - the gooey inside part, not the crunchy outside. I don't recommend it.

Ditto for raw sea cucumber, but I did love the little sundried, soy marinated, minnows.

I have seen sea urchins get ate, I never tried it. I’ll try just about anything once. I can’t do brains and testicles.

My grandpa butchered as a side job. And brains and eggs were a regular for breakfast. I als like hothead cheese with a little pepper sauce. Pickled pig feet are good with a cold beer and we’re common at most southern beer joints in the old days. I grew up hearing that you could eat everything but the squeal when it came to hogs.

Speaking of eating minnows, I know some brothers that went fishing, with plenty of beer, one of them was eating sardines and the other brother kept slipping minnows from the bait bucket into the sardine can, then admitted the prank after many were consumed. The culinary experience wasn’t appreciated and the offending brother got knocked out on the bank.
