Does your mom ever make a dish, and you think, “Eww, I hate this item!” Well, you’re going to love your mom’s cooking once you get to know about the various unusual items people consume with great joy.

The world is full of different cultures, and it wouldn’t be fair to call other people’s food “disgusting” or “weird.” Just because the food isn’t popular in your region doesn’t mean it is bad. These foods may not be your favorites, but they are eaten as a delicacy in their own cultures and countries.

I have gathered up a list of 10 items of food that I found the most unusual and different from what we usually eat in my country. When I say unusual, I actually mean I was shocked to my core to learn that these items are consumed by humans. As the title says, get ready to be shocked!

#1 : Fried Tarantulas

If you know what Tarantulas are, I’m sure you have your mouth open with disbelief right now. For those of you who don’t, Tarantulas are large and hairy spiders that are found in many parts of the world. They do not pose toxicity to humans, which is maybe why people in Cambodia fry and eat them as a delicacy.
Fried tarantulas can be easily found being sold by street vendors in Cambodia. They are often rolled in sugar or garlic and fried as a whole- legs, fangs, and everything. This delicacy was discovered by hungry Cambodians who were starving during the days of a brutal regime.
