Just for fun I decided to start a log of the crazy and the delicious that I have ate on the race. These are the ones that I have brainstormed up to this point(12/6). I will have to update this with changes every few months.
Strange…
- Deep Fried Pumpkin – gooey in the middle, melts in your mouth
- Chicken Feet – Lots of work for very little meat… worth trying once
- Fried Silkworm – the cocoon has a weird texture
- 4 birds on a skewer – I suppose I should know what kind of bird I was eating but I didn’t… the beak wasn’t great
- Belot – duck eggs that are incubated halfway and then boiled. Viewed as a great source of energy in the Philippines. I ate 3 and a half.
- Chicken Intestines on a skewer – legitimately delicious
- Fried baby crab – yes… you eat the shell and all
- Frog Legs – prepared by the amazing Roxanne and bought on the side of the road
Crazy Good
- Banana Q’s – Fried Bananas from the Philippines
- Sweet Chili Sauce – makes plain rice a blessing!
- Krumpynut – A Filipino chocolaty deliciousness that I wasn’t that into but others spread on toast 3 times daily
- Brie – a south African BBQ consisting of any type of meat but in particular the most amazing marinated lamb chops ever.
Worst Foods Ever
- Doran Popsicle – kids everywhere are devastated by this popsicle
- Pine Nut and Pine Whizz – yah… those are flavors of pop
