Actually so do the Spanish.
Here it's called black pudding.
It tastes like- well- kind of difficult to explain. But it doesn't taste like blood- sort of creamy liver with undercurrents of pig fat.
I'm gonna be sick now- into this corner.
Snail Porridge is really big in the UK right now. I'm not even going to go there and explain what that tastes like 
Actually Dutch food is pretty bland too.
The Italians have it easy as in every service station they serve veggie food as standard 
bastards!- at least I won't wake up with a horse head in my bed

FISH BLAMANCHE!!!!!
I knew it existed..... somewhere.... out there in those great still icy-cold fjords!
FWIW, my best friend Richard- who's currently in Japan working in TEFL
tells me about a great Japanese delicacy that has the consistency of an omlette that has been soaked in the salty sea for the last six months
- not even the good Dick (as he is affectionally known) could stomach it!
oh- and that link for 'snail porridge';

| Quote: | | The combination of the two words, 'special' and 'Aquavit' on any menu in Norway should serve a warning to the foreigner. What these two words mean is that one of the mentioned foods above is about to be served and the only way you can possibly eat the food is after consuming copious quantities of Aquavit, the traditional Norwegian Spirit. Literally translated, Aquavit means water of life and if it allows you to consume the foods above it may well be true. |
LOL!!
Good ol' Aquavit!!!
(best out of the freezer- gloopy and lovely )

I still wonder why a country like Norway developed food like dried fish washed in lye when you could simply eat raw fish like the Japanese do (sushi style). nothing like Norwegian sushi

Here it's called black pudding. |
Italian traditional cooking includes "sanguinacci" pronounced "sun-gwee-na-chee" made of fried pig blood (the thought of it makes me puke) and other delicacies like cow's tail, bull's balls, lamb's brain etc. (no dogs or snakes).
it goes without saying (but I am saying it anyway) that I do not eat any of those "delicacies".

What's wrong with Dairy Queen I hear you ask?
Well on the front end- up above, here, nothing. It's what goes on down under in the sewer that should make you look up and think

this one doesn't say much- but that 3rd pic looks like a very good stinky set for a Bond movie

Oh yes and big clogs of FAT- yummy!
Then there's always that French/ Spanish and I dare say Italian cheeses- that have little worms (oh yes very alive). You have to catch your dinner before it literally leaves your plate

Trivia:
Norwegian scientists are working hard on harnessing the secret mysteries of the lutefisk and salted meat in order solve the pending energy crisis.
This is no joke. We will soon see gigantic underground facilities generating electric power - all based on the ancient wisdom of the norwegian cuisine.
Try that with your average brit pudding!

Those links are in Norwegian. Can you explain what they are working on. It looks interesting.

Anyway, that last link is a bit old. It is a nice introduction to the subject but the cost estimates are way off.

Are we talking about that American specialty here?
Btw, is it only me, or should the act of putting pineapple on a pizza be classed as the eighth deadly sin?
