I'll go in, but I have a question. I'll be in Cozumel from December 3-10. Will you still be on your quest, and if so, can I join you for a night (or afternoon)? FYI, I'm a very adventurous eater - I've eaten and enjoyed
*gripping table* I might be there. I would try to keep up.
raw Sea Urchin (scooped out right on the boat),
Row, right? I would try that.
roasted grasshoppers,
Sure
chocolate covered ants,
Anything in chocolate is probably ok.
frog legs,
Tastes like chicken?
snapping turtle,
Must be like chicken?
and rattle snake.
I think I had that at a steak house. Chicken....
Smoked Cow Tongue,
Seems ok. It was kind of old and nasty at Fogo though.
fish cheeks a few times.
Doesn't sound adventurous. My capi likes to suck out the eyeballs. He says they are wonderful. Of course he won't share so I don't know. He made me save him the head and spine from a 25# mahi from the Rodeo. He took it to the Fish and had them cook the head so he could eat the brain and eyes. THATS adventurous.
fugu, even at a great Tokyo sushi bar).
Oh my gosh. I had to Google it. That made me cry softly to myself. That's not adventurous, that's mean! Poor lil guy.....
Cow testicles (Swingin' Sirloin - pounded flat, breaded and fried, they are delicious),
Seriously? Scares me a tad, but I like virility theme. And I would give you adventurous marks for the last two. But the wife makes me watch Zimmern, so my shock level is high.
pig testicles (Rocky Mountain Oysters),
I thought bulls were RMO. I think I would have to go cow first, maybe? I do love bacon though. I know, it smack of cannibalism.....
What did you eat you DIDN'T enjoy?
What about brains and eyes? That is like readily available and adventurous.
