    Anyone eat eggs of any animal besides chicken?

    I may have had cavier fish eggs before I can't remember but haven't ate eggs from anything else. Has anyone tried reptile eggs, eggs from egg laying mammals, or eggs from birds besides chickens?

    I've eaten salmon (ikura), capelin (Masago) and flying fish roe (Tobiko). I prefer Masago, though I don't know if I could tell masago from tobiko if I were blindfolded.

    I've also eaten quail eggs (raw) and duck eggs.

      I've eaten century eggs a number of times; both duck and chicken. Eating those eggs were probably the worst part of my mission. I'd rather get a thousand doors slammed in my face than consume another one.

        Naaaaaasty, Y.O. What is up with Asians and their penchant for eating rotten food? Is it the Vietnamese or the Koreans that seal fish in barrels with water and let it fester forever before eating it?
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          Korean, I think....

            That's essentially what fish sauce is, a common ingredient in Thai food.

            The grossest fish dish I've ever heard of is Lutefisk, a Norwegian dish of whitefish that's been soaked in lye. I saw an episode of Man v. Food where he could barely choke down a bite.

              All of those plus turkey.

                I'll second the disgust for Lutefisk. It's unbearable.

                    Cadbury eggs, though I am more of a caramel egg guy than the traditional Cadbury egg guy. Also, Reeses makes a very respectable peanut butter egg.
