AGX-17 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I'm both surprised and impressed the obvious slippery slope hasn't come up yet. Yes I'll eat manflesh too. provided it died of natural causes and was prepared well In the frozen wastes, there is no shame in taking the strength of your fallen comrades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ywerion Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) I question the heterosexuality of any man who willingly puts testicles in his mouth. Believe me, I sincerely wish those bull orbs was the last ones I must have ever eat (it was matter of courtesy toward a host) it tasted alright, but man, I could feel my own eggs shrieking in pain :biggrin:The host on the other hand was totally enjoing his "meal" and was 100% straight for sure.

Keyrock Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) My rule is that I'd never knowingly eat an animal I've had as a pet. My parents have cats and did when I was growing up (so they were my pets by extension), and I've had pet rats. Both of those are on the list so I had to vote "no". Dogs, reptiles, and birds? Game on.

BruceVC Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I wouldn't mind eating rats or reptiles ... dogs or cats, though - no thanks - too much of a cultural issue for me. On the other hand, some of the things I eat (semi-regularly) are not considered proper food elsewhere - horse, reindeer and whale meat, for example. It's all relative and culture-dependent, I guess. Now thats an impressive list of food you have eaten But honestly Whale? As far as I know only the Japanese, Norwegians and you guys still hunt them. I am not trying to judge your culture but don't you object to eating an endangered species?

Bos_hybrid Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) That's a no to dogs, cats, reptiles, dolphins and whales. I've tried Kangaroo but not a fan. Frogs I would be willing, but not snails given they can carry a parasite that can cause meningitis. Sure low probability, but there is plenty of other food out there to satisfy me.

Holy Smoke Bos, you are little selective with your diet? But living in Australia if you cut out food types like reptiles and dogs what other food is availible that is considered meat?

Frisk Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) But honestly Whale? As far as I know only the Japanese, Norwegians and you guys still hunt them. I am not trying to judge your culture but don't you object to eating an endangered species? Uhm. There are many types of whale, and the endangered ones are not hunted. The most commonly hunted one around here is "hrefna" (pilot whale), with around 43.000 animals - and the yearly quota of 200-400 has limited effect on the population size...in fact, if it was not hunted for food, we might even have to hunt it just to "cull the herds" - to keep the population down to a sustainable level. However, there is a good reason for not eating whale meat - it contains too much mercury and cadmium (due to pollution) - in fact, in the Faroe Islands, they have recommended that pregnant women do not eat whale meat for this reason, so who knows - maybe we will stop eating whale meat for health reasons ... would be a shame, though. Now, to get back to the subject....some other unusual food I have tried is frogs (overrated...tasted just like slightly slimy chicken), kangaroo (meh, no wonder it is not a major export from Australia), zebra (not bad, but very similar to beef and horse meat), In fact, I'll try just about anything, as long as it is dead when it is put in front of me - I really don't like food that tries to wriggle or crawl away when I am supposed to be eating it.
