a house fly, but not by choice. It just kinda happened

Does the “Green Eggs and Ham Sam I Am” from the old C-Rations count. How about the unidentifiable crap they used to bring out from the mess hall in the mermite containers. If you can eat military rations of the Korean War/Vietnam War era you caneat just about anything.
Anyone for some powdered eggs? Reconstituted with powdered milk mixed with bleech water of course.
While in Korea some dog meat. Wasn’t bad tasting until I found out it wasn’t beef.

The worm in the bottom of a bottle of Mescal…tasted just like crane fly larva!
Boy can I ever relate to that Nighthawk
I always thougt those tasted just like bald eagle…

Nighthawk, I can also relate but, I am having a hard time deciding so, I’ll leave that up to you all. A skewer of crickets fried on a flat rock out on the Mexican Border or lollipops with scorpians in them. I also eat a live one, just on a dare. There was also the time during survival training, I ate a still beating rabbit heart. All these are pretty tame. I’m sure there are better stories to come.
Hairwing,
Why would you know what a crane fly larva tastes like?

I had a job that had me doing a lot of international traveling, typically three different continents a month. I ordered octopus in Brazil and got some really nice steak- like pieces. A couple of weeks later I was in Venice and the menu included octopus. I ordered it again, expecting some really nice steak-like cuts. Instead, I got 4 flattened baby octopi, each with two eyes staring up at me.
I don’t think I want to know what I ate in Korea, but it all tasted good and there was lots of sake to wash it down.
An orange salamander…in SERE school. It was not good, and it protested getting bit in half. I followed it with a handfull of Sassafras leaves though and that helped. So the next one went rolled up in a leaf. Kinda like a crude “Pig-in-the-blanket”.
I cannot eat a bug…my mind won’t let it happen. But as long a I convice myself that it’s “meat”, I’m good. Minnow, salamander, frog etc. Can’t eat squid though…that is just wrong…squid is bait.
Somehow I thought this was a more adventurous group…
Early in my career, I worked on seismic field crews in SE Asia. I ate cassowary and wichety grubs in Papua New Guinea, tree wallabee in Irian Jaya, balloots in the Phillipines and fried whole baby chicks in Thailand. Dog in Indonesia was a delicacy. You won’t know whether you like it unless you have tried it.

About 42 years ago I went to Europe. First stop was Denmark and stayed with a Dannish family. One night we went out to eat and they ordered something that smelled awful. Well, I ate it but couldn’t bring myself to ask what it was. If I did I had a feeling that I’d have lost it.

I also ate an agave worm.
When in Vietnam, Montagnard Village Honchos would bring out bamboo shoots filled with their own rice wine along with skewers of cooked, spiced meat. God only knows WHAT that meat may have been, but I ate it & I’m still kickin’.
