I'm American and we have no weird foods so I'm going to bully the Kazakhs.

>>17382774
Sounds like a lot of work to make horse ass not taste like literal shit.

>>17382757
is that roasted sami?

Shut the fuck up you god damn idiot americunt

>>17382774
We do have chitterlings. But, I don't think they're exclusive to America.

>>17382786
nutria was a very popular snack in eastern germany

>>17382786
Only one of those could possibly be considered weird.

>>17382790
Yeah they're in other places too. I've seen pig uterus and "pig face" (skinned off the skull) in restaurants here, but only in Chinese places.

>>17382757
Apparently biscuits and gravy. It boggles the mind of all non-Americans

>>17382802
If you say so fatty

>>17382942
>Fruit salad with cool whip and marshmallows
Wwwwooooah! Who thought this up???
>Clam pizza
Insane!!!!
>Gator tail
IS THAT EVEN LEGAL???
>Offal loaf
You'd never see that in Europe!!!
>Literally just juice
Do Americans really????
>A rodent that is also eaten in Europe
Call the cops!
>Rattlesnake
Am I gonna died???

>>17382757
You can guess

>>17382757
Ugh I'm American but I had to eat this shit growing up. My Grandpa grew up on his mom was from Norway and they were sheep farmers

>>17382976
This is what they look like when they've been cooked.

>>17382802
Why would you lie when we all have eyes and can read the article?

>>17382966
Imagine being this offended by someone calling your food weird. Jesus christ all mighty. This is why everybody looks down on americans. You're all sissies.

>>17382861
It's not the most appetizing dish ngl

>>17382966
Did the big bad man call you'we food weird? Aaaaah honey. Come hewe and let me stwoke youw haiw and make the bad thoughts go away.

>>17382993
What's the weird food in that list then? Please explain.

>>17382997
You're confusing being argumentative with being offended.

>>17382786
you are so mad right now

>>17382757

>>17382757
How the hell do people chow down on food that still looks like the animal it used to be? I don't want my food to look at me

>>17382861
I agree, as an American it's kind of funny to see how confused other people get by biscuits and gravy.
>>17383000
Nice trips, and yeah it doesn't look great but it is really fantastic when made well. With some fried eggs or hash brown potatoes it's perfect

idunno if this counts as a dish exactly but serious wtf is up with this shit

Haggis. Have never eaten it, would never eat it. Organs can gtfo.

>>17382988
they look like candy

>>17382988
Heh.

>>17384155
Haggis is God tier.

How about some jellied moose nose?

>>17384187
H-how does it taste?

>>17382861
Biscuits and gravy is not even the close to being the weirdest. I would go for dishes with racoon, or something like squirrel brains. My grandparents loved both.

>>17384196
Imagine corned beef in aspic.

>>17384155
Haggis is absolutely lovely and offal in general is wonderful.

For me it has to be stargazy pie. I’m sure it’s tasty but it looks hilarious.

>>17384212
NW bong here and I had to actually look up if that was real. I've been to Cornwall a few times but never seen it.

Agreed it looks weird as fuck

>>17382757
Probably mett for most foreigners.

>>17382757
Second this. But god damn it is tasty as fuck

>>17382757
How do you even attack this dish?

>>17384542
You start by slicing the cheek from the mouth and upwards and from there you just fold the cheek. Usually you eat the eye last.

>>17384547
do norwegians really eat the fucking eye???

>>17384555
Hell yeah. You sort of scoop out the pupil-area

>>17384547
hmmm might do this, we always just throw out the sheep heads when we butcher one. got a recipe?

lamb intestines, most people are grossed but they taste like heaven

>>17384568
I'll post you a step-to-step recipe in English

https://travelfoodatlas.com/traditional-norwegian-smalahove-recipe

>>17384595
If you don't feel like following this recipe, you can just steam it for 4 hours and make sides of potatoes, and mashed kohlrabi. I recommend eating it while drinking a dark and flavorful beer

>>17384595
Thanks, my wife seems a bit reluctant to try it, lol. "eyes, teeth, gross, yada, yada" lol.

>>17384685
Glad I could help! It's understandable that she's kind of reluctant though, especially considering the eye; many Norwegians are as well. Have fun brother!

I've seen OX penis at Asian grocery stores in the U.S.

>>17384713
they be hung

Burgoo, swamp cabbage stew, watergate salad, picklejuice if that counts (drinking the preserving liquid from sweet pickles), fully dressed evlis (mayo, pickles, bacon, banana, peanut butter sandwich), any meat and veggies gelatin salad, head cheese, toadies (fried pufferfish on the bone, head and guts removed), heck I supposed most people find catfish strange as well, and uhhhh possum and sweet taters.

>>17384555
eyes are a delicacy in most parts of the world. Look gross, supposedly are delicious.

>>17384743
yeah, supposedly

>>17382786
>a bunch of city-specific, restaurant-specific, or state fair food
He said weird foods not meme gag foods

>>17382966
Keked

Russian salad with herring, beets and a lot of mayo. I never heard any positive words about it from foreigners, they call it shit.

>>17384155
Haggis unironically looks like one of those meals that looks like shit but tastes amazing

>>17384252
As an American, I fucking love this stuff.

>>17384884
Smalahove is also specific to a certain town you fucking moron. WHy are americans so fucking stupid? Don't answer that by the way.

>>17384906
That looks like somebody was forced to make a cake without using flour or sugar.

>>17384906
Prob the best looking dish itt desu

>>17384252
It's called a cannibal sandwich in Wisconsin and everyone in the other 49 thinks we're trolling.

>>17384203
>amerifats think racoon or squirrels only exist in the colonies.

Maaan stfu Cleetus

Czernina- duck's blood soup
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czernina
Other than that: beef tongue, tripe soup

We are a boring buch I guess, nothing rly extreme, like that Sardinian worm cheese, mosquito burgers or cats.

>>17384187
Is that not just head cheese?

>>17384578
This is typically from animals that have never eaten solid food, right? There has basically never been real poop in there.

>>17384743
Eyes are a good way tô obtain vitamin C

>>17384906
>I never heard any positive words about it from foreigners, they call it shit.
They haven't been introduced to KHOLODETS.
It baffles me how much people are scared of the umfamiliar food texture.

I like steak tartate but I don’t think I would ever want to eat raw pork

>>17386429
savoury jelly is popular around the world
well, at least in my place it is
Zimne Nóżki (cold knuckles) ftw

>>17386443
No difference.

>>17386414
lmao

>>17386452
piggy might get you Trichinella spiralis, nasty shit.
Afaik you won't get that eating raw beef.
Funfact: but you can get it from a raw horse meat for some reason.

>>17386404
I guess you still call 'shit' what gets throught heir intestines.
we also eat bovine spleen/lung/esophagus cooked in lard

>>17382774
>no weird foods
idk man eating bull balls is weird as fuck

Hobbel Bobbel
Whisk an egg with some sugar, eat raw at room temperature as a dessert.

>>17384252
> no pepper
> no salt
> absolut barbaric

We make these in NZ. Whitebait fritter. You catch the little fish with a net mostly as they make their way up estuaries. Mix them up in some egg while they're still swimming around and toss in the pan

>>17386541
I just think you should know that God becomes more and more displeased with you every time you do this.

>>17382757
There's meat in the beak?

>>17386561
God hated small fish, if he didn't, he wouldn't made them so small.

>>17384578
looks pretty tasty desu

>>17386495
I like this thing, you should cook it only with yolk. Also usually they add some alcohol into it.

>>17386570
Sheeps don't have beaks retard

>>17382966
4/5 bait golden sticker for eyffort

>>17386429
That picture has a sort of natural filter that accentuates the vibes coming off the food so well. It's honestly remarkable.

Like a dirty cramped room covered in cigarette tar and a haze from the constant smoke.

>>17382774
>Boiled horse rectum
>Cleaned thoroughly in a country where 40% don't even have handwashing facilities
>Served without sauce or spices

>>17382988
lol

>>17386561
What kind of lame god doesnt want you to sit on the bank and catch some fish to have a feed

>>17386471
Get some hygenic standards.

>>17386429
ha i remember a russian co-worker talking up kholodets to me, made it sound like the wierdest grossest ever until i told him it's just fucking head cheese

>>17386541
smelt are pretty popular when they're in season in the midwest (michigan comes to mind) and as a drinking snack in japan

>>17386541
Fuck I love me a West coast whitebait sammie

>>17386429
name a more iconic poverty war food

>>17388604
Here in Germany it's not even cheap. Stuff like that (although often whole parts of meat unlike the pics here) has the same price per kg as sausages that are not just gelatine.

>>17388624
its one of a staple of my grandmas along with a thick greasing of lard on plain white bread as breakfast, deep fried meat, having kilograms of sugar stashed away a all times, and mixing lard into every pasta and rice meal. just to name a few.
idk why it costs anything at all in germany.
hungary btw

>>17388636
I guess it's so expensive because its popularity strongly declined. So people who want it will pay the stupid prices. It's also just popular with elder people or in rural areas. Same with lard but that's dirt cheap.

>>17384906
Sounds good to me as an American.

>>17388245
I take a shower once a week
what else can I do?

>>17382786
Found the Kazakhstani
Ur women make my peeper hard though

>>17384906
my dad used to make this, he also added beef, hard boiled eggs and slices of apple to it.
it's good, really refreshing
I guess people are just turned off by the colour

>>17384555
Why not? It's the best part in fish as well.

I mean every nation has some people that eat pussy and balls right?

>>17382774
Might not be so bad if you had plenty of ranch dressing

People outside of the Mediterrenean really eat shit dont they? So blessed to be from this part of the world.

>>17386471
It's impossible to get trichinosis from farm raised pigs these days in a first world country. Pretty much all present day cases can be traced to meat from wild animals, and it's been that way for decades.

Looking at stats from Germany, close to half a billion pigs were inspected between 2000 and 2009, and Trichinella were found in 4 (yes four) of them. That's less than a 1 in 100 million pigs.

You're more likely to die or even get sick from just about anything else.

>>17384906
I'm American and I love shuba. It took me a few tries to get used to it though, same for kvass.

my people are the chinks of europe so you name it, we eat it.
cow tit salad, spleen sandwiches, brain sausages, chocolate-orange-and-blood pudding, cow-foot-and-muzzle salad, raw squid, octopus tea, pig's trotters sausage, blood cakes, a fucking dinosaur-looking bird etc etc etc

>>17385008
Smalahove is specific to western Norway, not only Voss if that's the town you're thinking about

>>17389042

Your country is only seven miles wide. ‘West’ can see the eastern border on a clear day

boiled peanuts. it doesnt seem weird to me but even in the states this shit will turn heads and people will be incredibly confused. i cannot imagine what people outside of the states think. do you like boiled peanuts?

>>17389366
Still has the second longest coastline in the world. Long ass country with big differences in food regarding what region you are in.

>>17382774
>America has no weird foods

What are Rocky Mountain Oysters

>>17382757
Skyline Chili. Eating penis and testicle is very normal. 50% of American adults do it recreationally.
But Chili Cheese Spaghetti, nothing more atrocious exists on earth, put everything in gelatin and sautee the ickiest gooest organs together into the organest casing. Nothing out disgustings Skyline's 5-way.

>>17389077

>>17389011

Snails, frog legs, ortolan, our weird dishes are quite famous, but there's probably a lot of other vile shit most people don't know about

>>17384906
looks pretty good (I love herring though)

>>17382757
>make a big chorizo
>add the fucking bones

>>17382988
Kekked and checked.

>>17389706
Stuffed inside the foot even?!
Thats something.

>>17389711
Looks very gelatinous.

>>17389682
Whats the blood bringing there?
Chocolate and orange are a good mix, but the blood seems to be really strange.

>>17382757
>sheep heads with a side of poisonous snowberries
lovely

>>17382774
>I'm American and we have no weird foods
Don't lie to these anons. We both know what happens here.

>its a delicacy!

Yeah thats how I know its shit.

>>17385022
>the colonies
lmao britbongs still trying to hold on to any superiority they can. Dont you have to go renew your gangraped-by-pakis license or something?

>>17382786
I’m from Southern Indiana and I’ve never had a brain sandwich. After a quick google search theres like one restaurant in Evansville that serves them

>>17382757
>places yarmulke on head

Goyish foreskins

>>17382786
mad

>>17390154
It's a custard, only with blood instead of eggs.

>>17390129
It's not. The blood replaces eggs in this dish, too. As it bakes, the blood coagulates just as eggs would and the cake sets.

>>17390042
What else could "pig's trotters sausage" have meant? : )

>>17389839
Andouille is the worst of the famous imo.

Tried this at a little leagues ball game once, it was awful. Eating it was messier than eating a regular borger and the bun was a sickeningly sweet krispy kremes doughnut while the burger itself was insultingly salty.

>>17389626
would defs love to try them out but the concept is weird and unheard of, bet they're delicious though

>>17382786
Is Clam Pizza really that "weird" outside of CT? I know for a fact you can get it in RI/ME as well.

>>17382774
>we have no weird foods

take a spoon and dig the 50's salad jello anon

>>17384203
Do you take any precautions against parasites? There is a mad lad in my cunt that makes sausages from coons, I think he needs some special tests done for the meat

>>17391566
Isn't that basically just weird, loose, green-dyed aspic? Why does it get such hate? Aspics are pretty good.

>>17389626
It's a common snack in most of asia.

>>17391620
never tried,
but this USA's retro-futuristic jello trend, man...
it deserves a place on capitan kirk's table

>>17392354
*captain

>>17392354
It's definitely unappealing. But, it's not really a secret where the idea came from. Aspic had been around in Europe since the 14th century.

>>17382786

>activated cashews

>>17392354
That's from an old magazine when they would put a page with recipe ideas. I doubt anyone ever actually made that.

>the average American cannot go more than 2 hours without stuffing his face with meme foods so he doesn't become Obese

Jesus christ...

>>17382774

how many of these are actually commonly eaten though? for instance nobody ever eats >>17390214 but biscuits and gravy for instance is a breakfast staple

>>17382966
Lmao btfo'd the rest of world

>>17392582
That is literally what it takes to avoid being obese in the land of corn syrup.

>>17392676
I mean, you don't NEED to consume food every 2 hours, especially if you're working an office job. 1-2 meals a day would suffice.

>>17382974
>a pie
>BUT IT HAS FISH HEADS ON TOP

>>17393333
Whoever came up with that did not look like that or say that.

>>17384906
I had a more appetising-looking version of this in a Russian restaurant once. It was amazing.

>>17382757
>>17384542
>>17384547
>>17384555
What offends me more is serving the dish with poisonous berries.

>>17390214
dont forget about how they mix chicken and waffles

>>17393545
it's a garnish, you're not supposed to eat them

>>17382757

>>17393565
Honestly? As an Euro living in the US, I actually really rather like chicken and waffles. There's a resto near my office's old location that made it and it tasted quite nice. Spicy honey-fried chicken, thick proper waffles (not the thin American bullshit waffles) and a little maple syrup or honey syrup on the side. Was good. The only problem I had with it was what to have as a side. Vegetables with waffles seems wrong some how as does fruit with fried chicken so I never got sides with it.

stuffed abomasum.
its very divisive. some say its fatty, rich and delicious; other say it smells like shit and the rice stuffing in disgustingly mushy

Besides the world-famous sopa de macaco, there's sarapatel. It's pig or goat offal (usually heart, lungs and kidney) cooked in blood. Never had it so no idea if it's uma delícia or not. In the south there's also roasted pig head (uma delícia).

>>17382774
>deep fried butter bars and all that fair deep fried stuff aren't weird

>>17393573
uneatable garnish is already complete bullshit, why would you even make *poisonous* garnish?

>>17386495
The cup cooks the egg

>>17393891
it's just a little prank us Norwegian play on tourists

>>17389721
you just know

>>17382786
None of those are really "weird". A lot of them are city specific meme foods they made for fun.

>>17382757
This in fairness is pretty nice to eat

>>17384252
german here. desu mettbrötchen is quite much a dying breed here. EU pretty much fucks up he whole "fresh raw meat" dish thing. Dexit, when?

Proper mettbrötchen, fresh from the pig, salt, pepper, onions - a delicacy, but the fuckers at brussel think they can take it away.

>>17386429
>cut a slice
>put the strongest, hottest horseradish on it
Fuck yeah. Anyway, I don't think "meat in jelly" is a rare thing, really.

>>17393565
chicken and waffles is really good though

>>17394307
>desu mettbrötchen is quite much a dying breed here
Ich kann jeden Tag am Frankfurter Hbf beim Metzger Mettbrötchen fressen, da stirbt gar nix aus

>>17386541
we eat smaller fish called neonata/nunnat ("newborn") bit it is illegal nowadays because of ecological reason. it is delicious if you do it in a meatball shape with breadcrumbs and eggs, picrelated the fish. a slightly bigger one is called cicireddi and is fried
