    Actually raw herring is pretty good…

  8. Olle says:

    Actually the "raw" heering isn't raw. It's pickled (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickled_herring). But yes, it's good. As is fermented herring (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surstr%C3%B6mming).

    I have yet to try Hákarl (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakarl), though… and Svið, Súrsaðir hrútspungar and Selshreifar, wich also are of the traditionally Icelandic food, Þorramatur (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9Eorramatur).

  9. Kaylia says:

    um.. actually the majority of people in india are vegetarians, in the 12 years i've lived there i never heard of anybody eating any bug.

  10. Sarah says:

    Raw Herring is delicious if you get in the right season ( out of season its just bland)

    It has to be REALLY fresh , but seriously, try it

    mmmyum!

  11. Ashley says:

    I’d try the horseshoe crab…looks kind of nasty in the picture, but surely it just tastes similar to most other seafood…or maybe not…

  12. Soorma says:

    I call shenanigans. Insects are not eaten in any part of India. There is no such custom. If it is just some weird random dude in India, then it is kind of biased to state that they are eaten in India.

  13. Nadia says:

    I have been eaten rotten soybeans (natto),tuna eyeballs

    cooked crickets and grasshoppers in Japan. Very good! :)

  14. dreamz518 says:

    Can't say I have, but cant say I wouldnt on some of them. I'd try all the bugs. Aw heck I'd take at least a bite of all of them. Ya never know.

  15. Astrid says:

    I have had pickled pigs feet, gravlax, and haggis. Nuff said.

  16. pwizzle says:

    Something "weird" to try is codfish tongues. They are not half bad!

  17. Bandya says:

    Cooked Crickets as a delicacy in India? Never heard of that. Barbecued cricketers after an emotionally charged loss … ya definitely.

  18. APB says:

    I don’t think horseshoe crab would be that bad…it’s probably like lobster.

    This however, would be nasty…

    Hi, I adore surfing the web !. Amazing isn't it that 15 years ago it hardly existed. Today even Bill Clintons cat has got a blog !. Sorry if you think I am being cheeky placing this here BUT I am 15 years old and need to do a project at school (for my GCSE exams). It would really, really help if people posted on here how many hours a week they feel they spend on the Web. I think I am up to 30 hours !. Really appreciate anybody taking the time to reply. Thanks. Bookmarked, I will return every week.
