I've also eaten other strange and to my tastes disgusting things on my travels (such as tortoise), but have not, to my knowledge, eaten cat or dog.

I'm also pretty choosey about what fish and sea food I eat: love cod and haddock, less so sea-bass. Also love prawns and octopus, but dislike squid and shell fish, apart from crab and lobster.


Think I ought to become a vegetarian - but I love red meat too much!

some really oddball meats barry, well for the british palate. at least you tried them. fish i forgot.. i really only eat salmon(occasionally trout), haddock and cod, or something similar. i dont eat shellfish etc.
my dad came up in a poor rural family in the depression and ate anything.. tripe and onions was his favourite. he are lots of weird stuff during his war years over in n africa and jerluselem areas.

Oops! - I forgot salmon. At the moment we're eating quite a bit of salmon or prawns.

And I also forgot tuna (tinned) and tinned mackeral in tomato sauce. Will have either in a basil and tomato sauce, or on their own with a green salad.


I have to watch the amount of sugar I eat, but fortunately fruit sugars are allowed, so plenty of apples, oranges, peaches, strawberries, raspberries and banana. My partner who BTW is an avid ichtyophage, so has encouraged me to eat more fish, has also introduced me to the various types of melon and to mango, which we do eat for dessert from time to time.

I have tried most fowl: chicken; turkey; pheasant; partridge; quail; plover and goose. Can't say I like any of them.

The only bird I like is ostrich, which has a much more 'meaty' taste. And it's very low in cholesterol. :)

Sounds about right, the rabbit is a little fellow, not much meat apart from its hooge legs!! Guinea fowl is delicious, have you had that?

Bin raining all day, so gonna have some comfort food, roast chicken and fennel, followed by apple pie and cream, fuck this diabetes diet on days like today!!

Omelette and gammon
