What's the oddest thing you have eaten?

  Poutine. Fries with cheese (most often cheese curds but many places use Mozzarella) and covered with hot gravy.

  Oh now I want one

  I was introduced to poutine on a recent trip to BC, then I seen Shania Twain make a vegetarian version on Martha Stewart show. I then tweaked it a bit to make it vegan and it is really yummmmmmmmmyyyyy ...I used a nice low fat soy cheese that melts, mushroom gravy made with low fat veggie broth.

  If you roast the fries in the oven with a little olive oil instead of deep frying, it cuts the fat content way down. So it becomes something you could even eat every day!

  Now I am salivating

  I used to make my poutine with mushroom gravy too, so good.

  Sorry... whan I first read the title to this thread, I thought it said 'oldest' thing. I was going to go to my fridge and check the expiration dates on some of the foods...

  Since moving here six years ago, I have tried many dishes that back home would be considered just plain "wierd".
  
  Here's a list of some of the "delectible edibles" that I've had the privilege of sampling:
  
  Horse (actually pretty good.)
  Chicken hearts (quite tasty)
  Octopus (one of my favorites)
  Squid (a bit chewy, but the smoked variety is very delicious, especially with a cold beer)
  Salmon roe ( not for me.)
  Fugu, or blowfish (very poisonous, but also very yummy. Leaves the lips tingly and a little numb because of the toxins)
  Eel (another fovorite of mine.)
  Sparrow (tastes like chicken.)
  Kani miso -- crab brains served with miso paste (not enough ginger in the WORLD to get rid of that taste.)
  
  There's more, I'm sure, but I just can't remember. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to grab an unagi donburi (grilled eel served with rice) and some takoyaki(deep-fried octopus dumplings). ;)

  They gave me some meat to eat and they didn't tell me what it was until later, I couldn't guess correctly then they revealed it was giant turtle, but it was very tasty. That's the most unusual thing I have ever eaten.
