Adventurous? Bloody hell Billy you want to branch out with your eating mate! Smoked cheese rules! There is a really good english smoked cheese you can get locally in Norwich called Hunters or something. better than that processed crap! It is one of my missions in life to eat every local delicacy at least once. Last year I added Bison, Tripe, Seagull & Horse to my list. the only one I wont eat again was the tripe. It was rank

It was rank STOP EATING SEAGULLS!!!!! I went on a french exchange when I was in year 8 and one night the family were cooking what appeared to be steak. However, it didn'ttaste like steak and it was chewy as hell. I pointed at the meat and asked "Ques'que-ce?". The reply came "Chevaux". It took me a moment to work out that I'd been eating a horse.

Haha. Wasnt the finest of meats horse. Seagull is something I came across in New Zealand. I was in a tiny bar on the west coast of the south island drinking with the hillbilly locals and one of them asked me if I knew of any good recipes for muttonbird. Well I found out it is seagull and they thought we ate it over here! Tried it and it actually tastes like mutton smothered in anchovy!

being a closet geek I find it funny that you could say to a French person: "est-ce qu'on peut couper ma chevaux" and just cos it's one letter out they'd think you wanted them to cut your horses up... Ok I'm a loser...

Seafood rocks. By far my favourite kind of food. Lobsters, oysters, mussels, crab, fish, squid, cockles it all rocks!

Seafood sticks are nice if you want to make simple rolled sushi Them and a bit of cucumber goes down a treat! That or tinned tuna, if you're afraid of fish poisoning Got to admit, crab meat on its own is a bit of a let-down; it's usually served all stringy, which seems a waste to me
