Well there is two restaurants in my area who serve lion meat, it is legal i was asking of anybody has tried it.

louis redfoot · 22 July 2014, 04:23 PM

i haven't... farthest i've gone is kangaroo (tastes like beef) and crocodile (tastes like chicken though slightly more rubbery)

Fenster · 22 July 2014, 04:25 PM

Pig and beef is how exotic it gets for me!

SUBversive · 22 July 2014, 04:26 PM

Not sure if kangaroo is regarded as exotic. Its not a meat I would eat as an everyday meat due to its taste and smell...very 'liver-ish'. I only had it twice.

I don't even like pork here due to the dried pee smell/taste of it including pre-made pork sausages from the supermarket. I found out after some digging around that the smell/taste is due to the way pigs are raised where they were not sterilised before a certain age, apparently we are the few countries that doesn't do the right step to prevent that dry piss odour in pork.

GB-man · 22 July 2014, 05:12 PM

16 oz of lion stew meat for $300 but they don't serve tiger or liger

I'm not one to judge because I'm carnivorous but carry a conscious knowing how messed up we treat animals. But really??? Would you actually buy lion meat? How is this company in business?

I've had wild boar, alligator, venison, kangaroo, and McDonald.

gmh1013 · 22 July 2014, 05:08 PM

Gave up eating meat several years ago.....I will eat some fish once in awhile......but beef/chicken/pork nope.
To big of an animal lover I guess. Cheese and dairy products I will use .....not a real hard core vegetarian like some but it may be the cause of me losing 100 pounds.

lipjin · 22 July 2014, 06:07 PM

Doner kebab and McDonald's.

And snake

bayerische · 22 July 2014, 06:23 PM

Not by any way exotic here, but my favorites are Horse, Elk and Deer. In that order.

kind of interesting seeing people offended by the thought "lion as a meal?"

Insight from India about medium rare rib eye steak would be interesting too.

I am afraid my "the most exotic" would be China take away, othervise I like to blend wth locals while travelling so it is connected with trying whatever food is considered as good in the area.

I too was surprised that any one would be offended.

The last 3-4 years meat has not been tasting very good so I have stopped eating it most of the time. But I am not a vegetarian either...I think the medications that I am on for RA is what is making meat taste gamy!!!

Dan Pierce · 22 July 2014, 10:04 PM

I ate at Arby's once. Not sure what the hell that was.

I stopped eating there when they stopped cooking the roast in the front of the store...who knows what goes on in their back rooms!!!

We do have one place left in our area called Cal's Roast Beef where they still serve real roast beef sandwiches and not that pressed loaf crap!!!

They also have the best fried, onion rings...they batter dip them by hand and then into the fryer they go!!!

Haha, or any of the other "value" fast food meals!

69mach351 · 22 July 2014, 10:38 PM

We do a "mystery meat" every year at Christmas and some of them are fairly exotic. The strangest was sea cucumber. The killer part was that the minimum purchase was 24lbs of the stuff. We ended up giving about 20 lbs to a restaurant that fried it up and put it with a dipping sauce.

james1787 · 23 July 2014, 12:39 AM

Alligator, Rabbit, Deer... there are one or two others but I can't recall.

padi56 · 23 July 2014, 01:21 AM

Tried frog-legs,snails, horse-meat, crocodile,ostrich,snake,sparrows,bat and rat, and a few other unquestionable meats in my travels far and middle east.But deep down prefer most of the normal western world meats like beef,pork,lamb and chicken.

Agree on this.

GermanyMatt · 25 September 2014, 05:13 PM

Not sure if this qualifies as exotic or not, but I ate some mystery meat in the Horn of Africa - I didn't even ask because I didn't want to know.

And no, it's not safe to wear your Rolex there.
