Kangaroo and Ostrich were exotic till 20 years ago I guess.
It's not that common, but if you search for it, you'll get it.
Thing is that past the discovery, you do not get too interrested in those meats as most of the time they are cooked like beef (grilled, or like a steak), so you tend to compare and probably can't extract something very specific from the meat itself.
Alligator is uncommon for me and probably most Europeans, as we do not have that kind of animal in our ecosystems (to my knowledge at least). I sure would like to try someday.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
The Japanese eat raw horse meat, basashi.
They also eat whale, which I wanted to try when I was there. It's supposed to be expensive because of it's rarity because of international protests. Mmmm... forbidden endangered fruit....
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I have eaten horse, which I disliked because it tasted too much like liver, which I hate. Kind of a pity since I could get it easily from my relatives. I have also eaten whale. It wasn't really anything special, although not bad either. I could definitely eat it again. It was whatever whale the Norwegians hunt.
I'm also going to taste some crocodile once my friend remembers to serve it. We have been chronically forgetting it despite multiple chances during the past couple of weeks. She brought it from Australia.
Rabbit was so long ago for me that I have no recollections whatsoever of what it tastes like.
Everybody in Finland has eaten Santa Claus's best friend the reindeer, but I suppose for some southern people here even that might be exotic.
I am so telling the kids all of this.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
