Tribal People Try Unusual Foods

Every time the tribe has tasted unusual foods: 9 videos of first impressions from villagers in rural Punjab, Pakistan, usually International food they have never seen before.

Also covers: weird food, weird, strangest, bizarre, insects, bugs, crickets, escargot, snails, frog legs, surströmming, century egg

What it is

The strange end of the menu: century eggs, surströmming, insects, balut, natto, haggis, cheese with maggots, durian, sea urchin. Foods that are ordinary somewhere and shocking almost everywhere else.

What to watch for

These are the videos people watch for the faces, and the faces are honest. The tribe are polite about other people's food and firm about not swallowing it. Smell is the deciding factor more often than taste.

The village comparison

The village eats paya (trotters), brain, kidneys and liver without a second thought, so they are not squeamish about offal. Fermentation and rot are the lines they will not cross.
