Default Weirdest Thing You Ever Ate

A student of mine told me about eating snake today.
Is that halal?

I'm sure snake is halal. However, do snakes even have enough meat on them to eat?

The weirdest thing I've ever eaten is shark. It was mako shark, and it tastes like bleach.

Oh, okay.

I'm assuming snakes are haraam because of the way halaal meat must be killed, and snakes can't be killed like that?

She definitely ate a snake. She said it's a delicacy... tastes great and is very expensive.

She and her husband killed it after it came into their house somehow... and then they took it to a restaurant, got the chef to cook it and invited all their friends.

I haven't eaten many "weird" things, since I'm alergic to most weird foods. The weirdest thing I ever ate was Menudo.

cow brain, a lot of people might have eaten it in 'paya'? It's a curry made with goat brain and goat tongue.

Also, kibbeh, which is a lebanese delicacy. It consists of raw mince and a few herbs chucked in. It probably would have been nice if i finally got over the "ew" factor. I couldn't turn it down though so i had to swallow it.

squid, this is the only weird food i've eaten intentionally and out of curiousity.

A spiders web, completely accidently, it's disgusting and very bitter.

Snake is Haram to eat because it falls under the category. Of:

- Most carnivorous animals, birds of prey and land animals without external ears (i.e., snakes, reptiles, worms, insects etc.)
