Unusual foods

Called in at my butchers this morning to replenish my depleted freezer, he offered and I bought a large WATER BUFFALO steak. Am seriously looking forward to trying it!!! In the past have had Kangaroo, Impala, Kudu, Ostrich, Camel, Wildebeeste, Zebra.

There is a herd of 350 water buffalo very near to us Uncle Joe and it's good meat - so enjoy. I once ate buffalo in a Canadian First Nation restaurant, specialising in authentic native food. Chief Chiniki's I think it was - I believeits still there and there is a website. I've eaten wild boar, venison, pheasant and other game; cockles, whelks, mussels etc., but nothing as unusual as some meats you have eaten.

Joe, you have eaten all the type of animals that suffer with knee problems and you probalby say why me with your knees!

Have you not tried snake, turtle, pigeon, squirrel?

Re: Unusual foods

Yup, but I got bored picking the meat away from the small bones in the Rattle Snake I was chewing.

Re: Unusual foods

I'm not too adventurous food wise, but would like to try wild boar .....

Re: Unusual foods

You would be a great man to be stranded with on a desert Island Joe, you know your eats. Enjoy your bit of Buffalo.

Re: Unusual foods

Think pork only slightly stronger - not that much difference really

I grew up in a German household eating Head-cheese & Blood & Tongue Loaf so I'm not too squeamish about foods. I've eaten octopus, Wild Turkey, deer, horse and barbeque pig snouts. It's all good.
