Offal good. It’s the pun that has to be made at the start of an article on weird foods from around the world, because the majority of what we label as "weird", assuming it won’t taste nice, are the less choice cuts of meat, the by-products of animals that are a bit too anatomically-intriguing for our taste.
This article will try to focus on dishes that are even considered odd, acquired tastes in their native lands - something that a reasonable percentage of locals would giggle at as much as a foreign visitor. This list will also leave aside eating insects, which are the most frequent guests in articles like this one. This is its own new realm of edibles, and one that could be poised to help curb world hunger (there are a lot of bugs out there for the eating) and is already a part of fine dining (ants are a not-infrequent feature on fine dining menus).
