We lived in what is now Limpopo when I was younger The worst for me was the beef liver prepared in huge dishes. It also had a kind of green shimmery effect on the surface. I'd rather eat mopane worms.

Oh boke!! :eeew:

Hallo Sweet! Not sure I'd be brave enough to try whale. Irrelevant question, probably, but I remember reading that it can be dangerous to your liver in large quantities?

I quite like liver, Tips, but mopane worms - never. Another delicacy apparently is grasshopper: quite nutritious, high fat content. I'd often see children hunting for them in the bush during the rainy season.

Think because of mercury? present in the meat. The Japanese eat quite a lot of whale, I know.

On the food front we had something called Pinnekjotte in Norway for Christmas dinner. Lovely smoked ribs of lamb prepared and cooked for days. Sad thing was they had got the lamb from a farmer friend and had a picture of it with its NAME on the table!
