i think we all can top that. how many of you have eaten pizza at a restaurant. i'll tell more after i get some anwser. besides that people that know think drinking hot cocoa with peanutbutter in it is pretty gross, but actually its quite tasty.
you are naive boy :P
check out the first post if that's not weird/gross enough for you
pizza in a restaurant... it doesn't sound weird to me
i think the places i go to for pizza are fast food but Europe is a big place... but i'd like to read your story :)
and peanut butter + chocolate isn't new to me
so having such drink wouldn't be so different... but i think i should give it a try :P
however, i'm no gourmet... i'd like to know some food that could be weirder and more disgusting than Congee in Dog's Intestine (don't know the proper name) :P

Living in New York City, pizza in a restaurant is quite normal =/. There are some excellent pizza restaurants to dine in at here. There must be pizza restaurants in Europe too! If your only pizza experience is from fast food, then you are really missing out.
I dunno about disgusting, but Nyotaimori sure sounds weird to me. It's where you eat sushi off a naked girl.
Here's one that does sound kinda gross to me
Kopi Luwak or Civet coffee is coffee made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet. The animals gorge on the ripe berries, and excrete the partially-digested beans, which are then harvested for sale.

Never tried it, but apparently you can't really tell it's been through the gut of some animal.
How about steamed sheep's eyeballs? I think that's ridiculous, but people do eat it. Just imagine, your own food is staring right back at you... also, wouldn't it burst when you stick a fork into it, releasing all these brown juices? And to top it off, I remember the sclera to be quite a tough thing to cut through during biology class.
And I remember seeing somewhere that in some European country they serve a pig's testicles as a delicacy. They named it something innocent (some sort of bean I think?) but it's really, you know.

He he he i figured you guys would say something like that. I used know some people that worked in some pizzerias. These friends happen to tell a wickedly gross truth about pizzeria pizzas.

oh right, i think it was in Texas where they have some big festival about fried bull cattle testicles
Nyotaimori
that's rather erotic
i'd probably be picking with my chopsticks in the wrong places :P

adds to the bitter taste :P
and there's some cow's tongue
the first time i ate it, it was tasty
but then my uncle had to say what it is with the intention of grossing my sister out
...he was more than successful :P

basicly i knew some people (who are old friends) that worked at different restaurants that served pizza. They both found out that there is a really gross ingredient that's added in pizza sauce. Do you want to know?

ok, aparently dog food gets added in the pizza sauce. So, in otherwords, " Would you like puppy chow or apo with your pizza?" :cry:

Dunno, never heard of them called anything else besides that and bull testicles. Here's what wikipedia has on them:

Well it only seems natural to eat every part of the animal that you can. Of course people will find ways to make them taste good. Besides, at least in Texas, people will deep fry everything from pickles to cookie dough to bananas. Theres a news story just about every year on the various things people are selling fried at that year's state fair.
I haven't had rocky mountain oysters but I wouldn't be surprised if they're pretty good.
I used to think chicken feet sounded really weird but now I order them every time I go out for dim sum.

there was a saying that goes like this:
when having a whole lamb for dinner...
serve the ears to the children so that they may listen to their elders
serve the tongue to the wife so that she would shut the fuck up and use her tongue for other things :twisted:
serve the eyes to the husband so that he would finally realize that his wife is also a woman (and stop looking at porn)
serve the testicles to the old man so that he..... forget it, just when the neighborhood has finally quieted down XD
well, the one above is a slightly modified version, but the original had nothing to do with testicles anyway :lol:
anyway, humans would try to eat just about everything...
...and that's how tobacco and cannabis were discovered :P

I love chicken feet (although they're called phoenix talons in Chinese aren't they?) when I go for dimsum too. Sadly, not many people like it simply because it's the feet.
I guess it's really got to do with culture. In Korea and other poorer parts of the world people eat fried insects too.
I reckon Rocky Mountain Oysters taste like, well, Rocky Mountain Oysters. I like oysters, but I think I'll be wary of the words "Rocky Mountain" from now on.

Dunno what they're called, I normally just point to things on the cart or menu as the case may be or let my girlfriend do the ordering if its a more authentic Chinese place where you get better service by ordering in Chinese.
Yeah, its just a matter of what people are used to. Most people around here won't eat the doughy rice ball stuff with red bean paste or whatever other paste happens to fill it.
