<p>I mean really seen, no kidding around</p>

<p>Beat that !</p>
<p>Frequent item on menus in London: spotted dick.</p>
<p>Here in Columbus, there’s a restaurant that specializes in “Fat Sandwiches”. One of the worst is buffalo chicken tenders, beer fries, mac and cheese wedges, mozzarella sticks, and ranch. That’s all ON a sandwich bun…</p>
<p>Several years back, in Mississippi, my son ate a sandwich with chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes & gravy, fried dill pickles and lima beans (and he HATES lima beans). He still talks about how good that sandwich was.</p>
<p>In Britain, my brother was served a box lunch which featured a sandwich. The sandwich was mayonnaise and raw onions on white sandwich bread. That was it.</p>
<p>Chitterlings aka chitlins</p>
<p>Well, right now my daughter is in Laos and she quipped on a call that they serve and eat fried grasshoppers there but she wasn’t game. </p>
<p>She said she had some other meal but has no idea what she ate but it was very good!</p>
<p>It wasn’t on a menu, but it was served to us at a Japanese inn. It was fermented soybeans. Looked like white beans in snot, smelled worse. It actually tasted okay - sort of. We had to eat some since they were a regional delicacy. Check out the picture: [Nattō</a> - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natto]Nattō”>Nattō - Wikipedia)</p>

<p>From the Cheesecake Factory menu–
Breaded, fried balls of macaroni and cheese (maybe a good side dish to the Fat Sandwich listed by kelspianogirl)!</p>
<p>Not on a menu but H has made onion on buttered white bread sandwiches, also cold leftover baked beans on white bread. Says he loved them when he was young. I haven’t a clue how or why he created them. Maybe he made them to disgust his sister or mom and decided he liked them.</p>
<p>From my mother’s kitchen:
As kids, she’d occasionally give us brown sugar and butter sandwiches. Can’t imagine now that I ever could have eaten one, but she says we considered them a real treat. On Wonder Bread, of course.</p>
<p>Fruit Bat Soup, in Palau (Micronesia). We didn’t order it, it came unannounced as part of the seven-course special. An entire fruit bat, fur and all, soaking in broth. I didn’t try it. My husband did, and regretted his decision.</p>
<p>omg, that’s disgusting!</p>
<p>OMG, mathmom, my Japan-crazy yD asked for natto (fermented soybeans) at our favorite Japanese restaurant on the Big Island. The owner said they’d give us a sample. It looked like someone puked into the bowl that was brought to us. We closed our eyes and tried it - it tasted just like… fermented soybeans. :)</p>
<p>But I think the fruit bat soup beats everything, even the Lutefisk, my mom’s favorite.</p>
<p>Fruit Bat Soup, we have a winner, ladies and gentlemen.</p>
<p>Road kill. And they were serious.</p>
<p>Next time I’m hungry, I’ll reread this thread.</p>
<p>lamom – is your husband from central NY? I used to eat baked bean sandwiches as a kid.</p>
<p>An all time “favorite” was in Hong Kong - Fish Head soup - which featured the head of a fish, probably 5 inches across. As the honored guest, I was offered (and expected to eat) the eyeball.</p>
