50 Times People Tasted Something Unusual Whether On Purpose Or By Accident Literal bull s**t, straight from a bull. It's not what you think. I mean, it's not what I would think, with that first sentence, but it's every bit true.

I was riding in a pasture of heifers, looking for why they'd been freaking out, when I saw one in the middle stand up, suddenly half again the size of every other bovine in the area. Oh.

One of the young bulls somehow got out of a nearby barn and paddock overnight. So I nudged my horse forward to see if I'd lead him out, or chase him out, or maybe I'd need another cowboy if he was feeling obstinant. He wasn't.

He turned and ran, so it was the chase option, then. No big deal, we do that all the time. So I let my horse do work while I hang out on top and basically just minimize my awkward mass-offset. I was riding a trained horse, so it already knew exactly what to do.

It's called "cutting" when you herd one animal away from the others. None of this aside from the chase is germaine to the story, but it's interesting.

As we were following the bull, who was sprinting away, I watched a giant, healthy looking s**t erupt from this idiot's a**s just as he bucked and kicked both feet back in a young bull's expression of primal joy. He kicked directly through his own massive s**t, launching chunks of it directly into my face. It blasted my hat clean off.

My mouth had been open. My eyes had been open. My shirt collar was open. Everything had s**t in it. Everything I had. I found s**t in my pants pockets. My horse was covered in it.

That's one of the rare times I was unhorsed. Completely thrown. In my shock, I just lost focus and ended up on my back, retching up toward the sky. Pretty sure I swallowed some. I had to f*****g chew it just to spit it out.

Had to walk back about 1/4 mile, too. The horse just kept after the bull. They were grazing near each other when I got back to paddock.

Disturbingly sweet. I didn't expect that. Highly unpleasant.

I've never before or since heard my Dad laugh like that. I thought he was going to die from it. It's the only time I ever saw the man cry.

50 Times People Tasted Something Unusual Whether On Purpose Or By Accident Cougar and bear. Used to go hunting in Wyoming every year with my dad. The hunting guide did everything from Bears, cougars, elk, deer, bison, turkeys, prairie dogs, etc. He was one of those people who had an industrial meat grinder in the back, and his wife used most of their kills for meals in the house. He joked that he hadn’t bought beef in 20 years. Made the mistake of asking him what the weirdest meat was in his fridge. He Got the most wicked smile and came back with some homemade summer sausages. he gave me a slice and asked me if I could guess what it was. It was incredibly gamy, only thing that made it palatable was the spices he’d mixed with it. It had a very odd aftertaste that kind of reminded me of the flavor you get in your mouth after drinking diet cola. Never in 1 million years would’ve guessed it was cougar and he was dying of laughter at the look on my face when he told me. He also had some sausage made out of bear. That one was also gamy and had a very strange “butter” flavor to it, but it was not delicious like butter…
Still, it was good to know he wasn’t putting the animals to waste.

I tried turtle once NOT by choice. My ex-husbands uncle shot a turtle and cooked it. Among other meals he made soup. He said try this I asked is there turtle in it, he assured me there was not. After I ate it he started laughing & told me that it was turtle soup. I have a rule about food if you won't tell me what it is I wont eat it I should be able to make the desision about what I choose to eat. I should have know better they were the same people who told a story about a friend of theirs who claimed a food allergy and they believed the person simply didn't like thee particular food (I can't remember what it was) anyway they slipped it into whatever meal they made and he ate it and loved it. Luckly in that case their friend didn't have an actual allergy to it; (seriously you can kill a person by doing that, but they were idiots). Guess I was lucky it was "just" turtle & not rabbit. I tried rabbit once as a child my friends dad was an avid hunter; I knowingly ate it & had a reaction.

Photo Editor Assistant at Bored Panda. In 2023, Evelina graduated from the Photography Technology Studies at the Vilnius College of Technology and Design. Photography caught her eye since high school, so after 4 years of spending her free time with a camera and photographing her friends, she decided to turn her hobby into a job she likes. However, as usually happens after the studies, Evelina felt that she lost herself in photography and decided to take a break on that, but not completely abandon photography itself. Besides photography, Evelina also found another hobby - embroidery. She creates tote bags with her embroidered designs, so as you can understand, she loves arts and crafts. Also, Evelina spent all her 12 years at school with music by her side, which is still one of the most important things in her life.

Exotic Meats-Wild Boar, Ostrich, Catfish, Shark, Reindeer, Horse, Donkey, Deer, Crocodile, Kangaroo. And my Mum. She cut her finger and took a sliver out when making my sandwiches when I was still at school. When I got home, she asked me if my sandwiches had tasted funny and told me what had happened. So I am an accidental cannibal.

Dust. For some reason I loved tasting dust as a kid (maybe I had pica). There would be a fine line of dust between the window sill and wall and I used to run a finger and then plop the finger in my mouth. I knew it was weird/wrong so I would make sure no one was in sight before doing it. So strange and later when I learnt that dust in an occupied house probably has human skin cells, I was so disgusted. But to date I feel tempted to taste it again. It just tastes… dusty.. like just a powder of something but I think I like that texture. Also dog slobber recently. She licked me in the face when I was talking to her.

2 I ate that was good and I recommend it, but elk jerky, and emu jerky! I bought 2 bags of each on my way to Lake Pleasant in Arizona, and a few people were selling them on the side of the street from their own lil pop-up shop/car, it was like 5 bucks each and it was so good, I ate them all before leaving the lake

Sun cream. When I was a child, someone held out a finger with it in front of me. Greedy always hungry little bugger that I was, I thought it was whipped cream and licked it. Nasty chemical bitter taste, too bad nobody took a picture of my face at that moment LOL.

When I was very young, I accidentally stumbled upon the ability to mess with my senses at will while half-asleep. I had fun with it (forcing myself to feel like I was falling, generating smells I liked, etc.), but one of the strangest things I did was mess with flavors. I don't even know if this flavor exists in real life, but it was kind of rubber-like, vaguely sweet, and had a smooth texture. My brain decided that it was blue, for unknown reasons. So I've tasted something of what REM hallucinations can generate.

Not so uncommon (it's on a lot of ""Western" bar menus) but bull testicles. Cooked right, they're not bad at all. Like a strip of breaded fried chewy meatball with a bit of a liver/iron taste. Good with ranch dipping sauce

Alligator once in Florida at a road side place. Gamy. Tough. No flavor. Thing it was deep fried and battered. Even that wasn't tasty. So I tried it but. Eh. Although I'll Give the secret to the best beef stew. Add deer meat. 3/4 beef 1/4 deer/venison. It's richer and old family trick

Soup/stew made from Danube water, catfish, pike and carp. Gave everyone diahorroea because we weren't used to the water. Shark, very dry meat. Crocodile. Ostrich. Snake. In a restaurant in Namibia, five meats including zebra and kudu, can't remember the other 3. Zebra very strong flavour, I guess horsey. The antelopes were more like venison. Reindeer. In Iceland, puffin - very dark meat, tastes like liver, and smoked blackbird (tasty). Pig testicles. Sheep brains. There might be more but I can't remember right now!

I've eaten a lot of wild plants and animals, so I can't say which is the weirdest. Maybe, bearded moss. The kind that hangs from trees. I boiled it, as tea, because it's supposed to be very good for you. Lots of vitamins and minerals. The iron taste was especially strong, like blood.
