My comment related to comparison of kefir with rotten milk. It's cheese that is processed using that ferments (and bulldung is too). It is yellowish (or dark-yellow...) in color and smell... well, they both smell. So - any difference? (ps apparently some older recipes for kefir included rennet ferment too)Quote:

I think the winner is the deep fried mars bar.
I have never had them but I have had deep fried oreos and snickers...
Of the things mentioned in the original post:
Jell-0? never tried it
Deep fried mars bar? Surprisingly delicious.
Blood pudding? Assuming this is the same as "black pudding", then it's delicious. No fried breakfast is complete without it!
Surströmming? Never heard of it... sounds revolting, but as the saying goes, "don't knock it 'til you've tried it!"
Home-made alcohol? I once had tried some dubious "home-made nettle beer", which wasn't too vile... but as the saying goes, "if it'll get me drunk then who cares what it tastes like?" (Caution: not a real saying. I just made that saying up.)
Snails? Tried them, they're quite nice. Never had frogs' legs though.
also, I'm pretty sure these top anything mentioned so far:

Somebody mentioned Scrapple on here... I think it was rockzmom.
Oh my gosh... it's so good!
Here in Philadelphia, it's practically a staple of the diet (usually with the older folk).
Most people get squemish when they see what it's made of (even people like me who love it). The ingredients don't give it justice. It actually tastes like bacon. That's why most people here eat it with breakfast.
Philadelphia Scrapple is the best.
