EXOTIC FOOD: Burger, Pizza, Spaghetti, etc. “What’s your FAVORITE?”

I have this thought that most of us love to munch on exotic foods. These foods are not well-known in our respective countries. For instance, most Asian people love to eat their native dishes. I am not sure in my country Philippines. We were been colonized by Spain, Japan, and America. Thus, we are diversified in terms of eating exotic foods like burger, pizza, pasta, spaghetti, etc. In general, I like almost all the exotic foods from different countries. With an exemption of eating strange foods such as insects, cockroaches, worms and so forth. “How about you, guys?” “Do you have any favorite exotic food/s in your place?” "How's strong your stomach to eat exotic foods from other countries?"

You were been colonized by Spain, Japan, and America and you like pizza, pasta and spaghetti that are all Italians. Those food are not exotic for me, I am Italian. I like the food from my country, but I cook "international" cuisine.

@LadyDuck It is nice to be well-skilled in cooking. It wasn't my talent but I can learn how to.

by exotic for me, it means me eating the 'salagubang' or beetle, frogs caught in rice fields, or fresh young oysters, which i think is not exotic at all.

When I was young, my Father gave me an exotic food, I never thought I was eating a snake, I thought I was eating a chicken because of how it was tasty and how it was cooked. I finished one serving when Father said, how was the snake? I end up throwing up in the river. That was the last and final not to trust Father when he gives me food.

You said it right. I think the most exotic that I had tasted is a turtle soup in China. I didn't know it at first. My sister told me that it was.

@Shavkat They are so colorful. We sometimes get them here but these days they have no taste and are expensive. Yesterday, I got some cherries from Washington State and they were so good!

@1hopefulman When I came back home, I never thought that it is available in my country. However, it is also expensive in my city. I do love cherries and enjoyed having them when I still living in Tajikistan before.

We have salted eggs here. We call it 'century eggs.' I like it with shredded tomatoes. I am not also sure about some exotic foods from other countries. Beforehand, I need to know how it was being prepared. Image Credit:3.bp.blogspot.com

I've eaten a lot of exotic foods from different countries. I've eaten Monkey Balls in Thailand, octopus, snake, lizard, and so much more. I try to eat it with an open mind. The only thing I won't try is things like dog or cat or horse etc. Animals that are considered pets in America. I'm reaching the point that I'm not liking to eat meat too much either. I am reaching the point of respecting animals too much to eat them.

Wow! It is nice that you are a food adventure. I am not into domestic animals like dog or cat. I think horses is one of the delicacies in Japan.

What on earth is on that image, is that pig alive? Anyway for me it's only normative food, so that would be a normative Vegan Pizza with Cashew cheese above and some veggies on top.
