We do eat some things that seem a little out of the mainstream, but are really good. Like buffalo meat--low cholesterol, lean, and really better flavor than beef. And you cook it just like beef, only the steaks need to be more rare because it will get tough if it is cooked too long. I had a roast that needed to be cooked because the food in the freezer thawed when our power was off--and it made the best pot roast you could ever eat! And ground buffalo makes the very best chili.
We also eat things like miso soup and tahini, and I have learned to cook vegan for my daughter and her family. Any body else have any non-mainstream foods in their diet?

I knew a German girl who ate her popcorn with sugar and milk like a cereal, apparently it is a German dish.

Good, fresh bison makes lovely burgers - extremely tender. I like to serve this with breakfast: stir fried kale with a little red onion; add red wine vinegar and a tiny bit of sugar. Serve this with "Eggs Erroneous" - fry eggs sunny side up or over light; serve with cheese grits and black beans with some tomatillo salsa, maybe a dollop of sour cream and some shredded cheddar. I make a nice chocolate pie by melting chocolate chips, stir in silken tofu, spoon into a chocolate cookie or graham cracker crust; top with a bit of whipped cream and fresh raspberries. I have served dinner for a lot of vegetarian and vegan friends; it has helped me expand my "repertoire" of recipes, and I've discovered a lot of delicious, healthy recipes along the way.
Lambs fry(Lamb Liver) & Bacon Sheep Kidney s in gravy on toast Sweatbreads(Glands from neck of sheep) cooked in batter Mountain Oysters(see calf balls) Lambs tails, thrown in to a fire Pressed Ox Toungue It sounds a bit gross but its good tucker
I like to fix some whole grain rice and dump a can of crushed pineapple(naturally sweetened) in it.Don't drain the juice off the pineapple. Then, I add a can of white(whatever you prefer) chicken chunks(drained) unless I have leftover chicken at home.I can eat this hot or cold and it last me for several days like fixing a pot of chili.
My family sits and gags when I eat the following. They won't try it but at times I have a craving, so I enjoy while they gag and I finally, have to tell them to get the heck out and quit harassing me.
I love spinach with lemon and nutmeg.

Scrambled eggs with Feta crumbled cheese.
