Pig and beef testicles I eat at home regularly, also pig brain ( I live in Romania ), so these are not something exotic to me.
But in China I ate scorpion and also a very big cockaroach , maybe the Caceda that Stephen is talking about.It`s the size of a small potato, very thick and a lot of meat on it.I served them both at food stalls in Beijing.

I tried Googling it Rod, but couldn’t find anything matching that description – it doesnt sound too tasty, but as long as it tasted good!

My wife & I were in Budapest in about 1991. I’m monolingual English, but can **sort of** fumble my way about in German, French, Spanish & Italian, but the Cyrillic (sp?) alphabet really threw me. We ended up at a local fast food chain called “City Grill”. Now, the biggest advantage of fast food chains is that they have PICTURES of the food. Well, City Grill had a poster just beside the sunny window of a burgerish looking thing, but orangey coloured, on a yellowish bun. I assumed it was sun-faded, but what the heck… When it came it was indeed orangey, and the bun was yellow tinged. Tasted pretty good, though. To this day I don’t know / don’t really want to know what the meat was…

Hi Darren,

Scorpion tastes very earthy. Fortunatly for me, I had some BBQ sauce to go with it.
