Awesome article - loved it, loved it, loved it!
I remember when I went to a local’s restaurant with my family in Hawaii - we were the only white people in the entire place, and everyone there literally stopped eating and stared at this tablefull of white kids who ate with CHOPSTICKS! LOL
We should start a list on here of the weirdest food we’ve eaten (or the normal food which others around us consider weird).
I consider most stuff I’ve eaten pretty normal, but it freaked lots of non-TCKs out: raw and dried squid, raw shrimp, raw and smoked octopus, tripe, cuttlefish, eel, whole dried fish (yup, head, eyes, everything) etc etc. Of course I’ve also had moose, reindeer, caribou, and muskox… live ants… and raw whale blubber with the skin. Whale skin is an inch thick, no joke - it tastes very good actually, quite nutty.
One of the only things I could not bring myself to eat was whole rodent. It was two muskrats or something,the size of jack russel terriers, given to us as a gift, completely whole but skinned. Yep, two entire skinless red, glistening, bloody dead rodents, with claws and bulging eyes and bared teeth, and we were supposed to pop them in the oven and then… ugh. We buried them secretly under some trees.
