    Piella (though I don't think that's how it's spelled. It's pronounced Pie-Ella) at my Uncle's wedding. It was gross.
    It's "Paella," right? When I was at a summer trip to Europe among fellow schoolmates and most of their families, we had paella twice for dinner when we were at Spain (from two different restaurants). When we heard that the third restaurant wants to make us paella, we were all, "Er, no thanks." One kid wrote in his journal which we're assigned to do during the trip saying along the lines of, "Day one: Had paella for dinner. Love it. Day two: Had paella again for dinner. Still love it. Day three: we were about to have paella AGAIN for dinner. ... I hate paella." :lmfao I like eating paella but I did agree that it became a bit too much.

    I think my most exotic food would be a tie between eel and squid. The texture for the squid is okay, but not what I'd prefer chewing. The eel is the only kind of sushi I liked for a few years now but I never realized it's really eel until just a couple months ago. :shifty

    Oh! I just realized. Actually, my most exotic food was a tiny maggot. A classmate of mine once brought to school a packet full of edible tiny maggots he bought while he was on a trip. I was the only girl who was daring enough to try it. It wasn't exactly that bad since it was coated with cheese so the maggots were cheddar cheese-flavored. :lmfao

    I'm not sure why I tried them, but I did...
    And they weren't that bad to be honest :shifty
    But this was years ago xD

    I don't really eat exotic food. I want to try so many things though.

    At the moment, the most exotic thing was chicken feet at a chinese restaurant I go to a lot. I have it almost every time I go. :tehe:

    I don't really eat exotic food, but I have to sell chicken feet in the deli I manager. I freaking hate it - who woudl want to eat chicken feet with the claws and everything I have no idea. Freaks me right out.

    Deep fried frogs and grilled chicken intestines.
    They're both really good by the way.

    I don't think I've tried anything that would be considered "exotic."

    I don't think I've had much exotic food.
    I guess the closet I've gotten would be vanilla ice cream on top of a very large chocolate chip cookie, which was melted and hot and delicious.
    MMMM.
    I want it now.

    Boudin. It's a cajun sausage thingy.
    Well I don't know about cajun but where I live people eat it religiously. What we call 'boudin' is actually blood pudding or blood sausage. It's made from cow or pig blood mixed with bread and seasonings encased in the intestines. And also 'boudin' means stomach or belly in french creole so that tells you where it comes from.

    The most exotic thing I've eaten was probably jackfruit. It was the most disgusting thingy I've ever eaten in my life. Although the seeds tasted okay.

    Probably the weirdest thing I've had is Kangaroo, when I was about 10.

    I didn't realise until my sister told me I was eating Skippy Cry
