Poi is the staple of the Polynesian Islands, it is pounded taro root, like smooth glue, then when the fresh bags don't sell, you get to buy the sour stuff cheaper.
What's the oddest thing you have eaten?

sea urchin at my favorite sushi bar. I have tried a lot of stuff, but this one grossed me out. As my buddy put it, "It tasted like 'brown'".

goose liver, foi gras, if you seen how they make it, you probably wouldn't eat it

Australian aborigines eat these huge Witchetty grubs:
They have them now also in many tourist restauarants. I wonder what wine Ozziepost would recommend to drink with fresh grub?
Not for me thanks.

In China, I had donkey meat (very delicious) one night and camel's hump the next night (not that great):

I see! sounds good. I have had those taro chips they sell at the health food store. They are yummy!Yes it is yummy but an aquired taste. Most tourists don't like it. I miss it! The chips are great but high in fat. Poi is pure pounded taro with nothing added.
