I always assumed octopus was normal, and I did eat it many times per year
but it is now hard to find where I am. If I lived in the right area I
would probably eat gator too. Horse in another story for me I do eat
bear, buffalo, dear and such with semi regularity as well. It's not
uncommon to find emu meat in the grocery store, and I am making rabbit stew
tomorrow. I'm no stranger to the standard beef, chicken and pork either.

I eat both often. I'd put clams, mussels and oysters in the same catagory
as "strange" for some but common for others. I had a great smoked eel
dish about 2 weeks ago, yum!


> My brother in law thinks pumpkin soup is weird.


Curried pumpkin soup in the winter is a must in my home.
