F@#k that. I live in Southwestern Louisiana and I've never heard of eating any of this, well except the bear. But, we eat stuff like crustaceans from the ditch in the front yard. Blood boudin. Raw shit. You can keep the pig brains. Even at a couchon de lait the brains go back to the hogs.
@@JS-wp4gs It's generally a good idea to avoid eating brains because of that, however pigs appear to not develop this problem and are considered "safe". The caveat to that is knowing the source of the pig. If a pig is fed the remains of, say a beef cow that had BSE, it could in theory develop prions and if a human ate its brain could also get it. Apparently though, there's never been a known case of pig brains causing a prion disease.
When I was a kid my grandfather butchered a lot of goats and my brother and I helped him. After every goat we butchered my grandfather would remove the brains and take them inside and have brains and eggs. Most customers were either Muslim or Hispanic, and we did a brisk business. The customers would arrive and pick the goat they wanted, my brother and I would go in the pen catch it and tie it up and carry to the truck, we would process it right then in front of the customer. Interesting thing was for the Muslims it took a while because the prayer rug would come out and the goat would be blessed and we would have to go through this whole thing to make sure all the blood was removed before processing it.
This gave me an idea for a game suggestion........."Stuff on Toast". They have to guess what the stuff is on their toast pieces, and if they guess wrong, they have to do some kind of punishment.
In 1979, me and two of my sisters came over from Canada, to see our relatives in England, and do the backpacking/hitchhiking thing in Europe. The whole time we were there, the ONLY good steaks we had were thanks to a wonderful couple in the Champaign district of France, who served us horse steaks! My father was a very adventurous person when it came to food, possibly stemming from an incident he told me about in the 1930s, when he tried to join the International Brigades fighting fascism in Spain. To get to Spain, my father got over to France then rode the rails to the Spanish border, only to be rejected because of his age (he was 15). On the trip back to England, Dad found himself broke but stuck in a rail car filled with turnips! While not starving, being forced to eat raw turnips really sucked. Dad joined the RAF in 38, and survived as a midtop gunner in a bomber through the war, immigrating to Canada in 49, where he met my mother on the Manitoba prairie. Mom was the youngest of her family, born in a tiny rail spur village, and was never allowed near their big old wood stove, so never learned to cook. Dad had to teach her, and she became quite decent at some things by the time I was born. Dad did the fancy and exotic dinners. Having 8 kids, Dad, and my older brothers hunted and fished, so we always had lots of different meats, not just squid or octopus but sweetbreads, calf brains, homemade head cheese (yes, whole pig head pickled and jelled), and homemade corned beef. Because of this, I have the "I'll try ANYTHING once" attitude. While in a mountain warzone in Nicaragua, in the 80s, I ate an iguana and a couple snakes (those effin rib bones suck!). About 15 years ago, in the local bar, I did 2 "Caesar Nut Shooters" (that is, a shot of Clamato juice, vodka, hot sauce, and a raw calf testicle in a shot glass) to win a couple of free drinks. The free drinks I drank while sampling different ranchers' fried calf nuts. We have a lot of farmers, ranchers, and oil field workers around this part of Alberta who like exotic meats, to support a bar and restaurant in the little town of Czar, Ab, where you can get crock, alligator, emu, kangaroo, and more! What I have NOT done is like stuff out of a can! The taste and texture of calf brains or sweetbreads, dredged in egg, then flour/spice mix, then fried in butter! Brains, sweetbreads, and testicles (which is kinda not that surprising, as so many men only think with their balls.) all taste very close, and I can't see how they could be anything but gross after canning!
Yeah anything out of a can like that is absolutely horrible. I mean we used to always go ahead and Fry up some pork brains in butter ( not milk ) and then have them with eggs and they were delicious that way. NEVER - NEVER eat any kind of a brains out of a can that is god-awful !!!!! Also the bull or pig or even chicken testicles we always called them mountain oysters. I'm from the south ~ born and lived half my life in Mississippi and so far the rest of my life has been here in Middle Tennessee. This is what me and my kids all grew up on, BUT most of the people from their early forties down to the young kids nowadays have all been raised with restaurant food or fast food places. These are the ones that never had to grow or hunt for their own food to eat. But I tell you one thing my grandkids and even my great-grandkids love coming home to MawMaw's house for some good old homemade country cooking. 🤗😉🤣🤣🤣

Where I live in rural North Carolina, there are a surprising amount of people that do not eat meat out of the store at all as there's plenty of meat available in the fields, and forests. On the menu are deer, bears, rabbits, raccoons, wild hogs, ducks and geese. Go a hundred miles east and you can add gators too!
watched the vid. I have had them all but pig brains. Out of the ones I've had listed in order of preferance.. 1.Bear, a mix taste wise of beef and pork,gotta cook it well though,trichinosis potential if not..super tasty 2.Seal yep,like beef and salmon mixed together,very rich in flavor 3.Horse,more or less a very lean beef,also needs to be cooked well,again there's a risk of trichinosis..it was ok.
@jefferywarburton2116 after poaching you can lightly pan fry with heavy seasoning and serve with vegetables. The poaching is mostly to cook with out losing volume since it can dry up super fast
Pork brains are best served (and cooked with) scrambled eggs! And, yes, a dash of milk would be needed for the brains. I have a fondness for "Eggs and Brains" since I was a very small child.@@jefferywarburton2116
The Rose pork brains in milk gravy are made in a town just down the road from me in Sanford, North Carolina. I’ve never tried them and they aren’t exactly on my bucket list 😆
Canned pork brains in milk is absolutely nasty as hell. Lord not only would I not eat it with it being so nasty tasting from a can. I wouldn't even try to feed it to my dog cuz he would look at me like are you out of your mind, play to be honest out of a can my dog would probably bite me trying to feed him brains like that.😅😅😅
horse meat is sold in some supermarkets or butcher shops here.(Québec, Canada). it looks darker than beef and is much leaner. Game meat can also be bought in specialty meat shops.
I thought that when I unknowingly ate whale meat (in fish paste form) while in Japan, that it couldn't get any worse (because they're one of my favorite animals). Gráinne reacting to the horse meat was basically how I reacted too 🥲 Japan I love you, but some of these food things are just... T-T
Japan has never had the ability to feed itself; they must import a large percentage of their food. Consequently if it crawls, slithers,walks, swims or flies it is going to be eaten. About the only thing you can safely say that is NOT on the menu is human flesh.🤢😵💫🤮
My favorite as well. It's like beef, but tastes twenty times better. Why is it so hard to find in Cali? You're literally just two states away from one of the biggest bison-producing states.
@@willsofer3679 Sometimes I find some ground buffalo in Sprouts or Whole Foods. There are a couple of Bison delivery companies that are good but high dollar.
The majority of people today are not learning anything from the history lessons that are taught in school. Mainly because not much of history is taught. One example is that, during WW-II, horse meat was sold in the markets so that beef could be given to the soldiers in Europe. Another tidbit is that bear meat, usually springtime black bear, is often hunted by those living and surviving on the land.
Sounded like the horse meat was definitely a Trigger for Grainne, and Sea Lion was not a mane attraction either. The Pork Brains looked absolutely mental, but Bear was the polar opposite.
The puns are brilliant 😂, these are definitely things I've never seen in a New Zealand supermarket or any store lol. Interesting, I've never watched channels like this and now I found yours and can't stop watching 🎉have a blessed weekend ahead
Not a very adventurous eater, but I’ve had horse sashimi. In my youth, I hunted and ate squirrel and rabbit, plus once had the opportunity to eat gator, caribou and rattlesnake. Of course, deer hunting and venison is a staple in my family.
So the brains being in milk. The primary reason a meat variety would be in milk is because it tends to draw.whatever residual blood is in the tissue out and helps ensure that it can be cooked to a safe level without over cooking. It's actually a great idea when cooking raw chicken especially full hindquarters where bones may affect its ability to fully cook through. It's a fairly common practice in US restaurants to soak or "brine" chicken in milk or buttermilk overnight. Several of the restaurants I worked at where we did broasted chicken used this method
Being Canadian, bear, moose, and deer are rather common when in season (and moose meatballs in your tomato sauce over pasta is deeeelicious), but I think the 'weirdest' thing I've ever had was conch when in Florida. It was the appetizer prior to shark steak, both of which were lovely. To be fair though, they were fresh, I don't know if I could do tinned weird meat. My hat's off to you all, you're braver than I.
Conch is basically a giant sea snail. And we all know someone that probably eats snails. But kudos for giving it a go. I know a lot of people that never try anything new or different. Fellow Canadian here, I tried seal once and it was really dark in colour and metallic tasting. Bear meat tasted "off" to me. But like a lot of animals, it can taste like what it's been eating.
Conch chowder is a particularly popular soup in Florida. We have the usual fish, corn, and clam as well. Conchs are strange and valuable mostly in the tourist trade for their shells. Like mollusks, once they die the smell will kill you.
Yeah, its not strange at all here, but I will say that Moose requires a ton of preparation to actually make it not dry and gamey. Also, Seal has a really foul odor strong when cooked.
If it's dead and I'm hungry, it's food! If it's not dead, well... I can fix that! I want to see you try Sturmstromming or however it's spelled. Finland fermenting fish in cans. Can't be shipped to the US because the cans (already bulging) explode in the unpressurized cargo holds!
You can get fried alligator meat in my area. I've had some good horse. Italians make fabulous cold cuts out of horse; Mortadella di cavallo for example. The strange thing is the majority of horse meat served in the world is exported from the U.S., where it can't legally be served.
@@nittyblahblah8939 No. I'm from North Carolina. It's harder to get fresh gators here, since they are more limited, though still hunted. Plenty is sold frozen from the Gulf area, though.
@nittyblahblah8939 I lived south of camp Shelby all the way to katrina, my pops was a seabee, but I tell everyone where I live now my favorite poboy is gator
I would say that maybe the horses came from the US. But the meat came from Mexico since the US does not slaughter horses anymore. They are all shipped out to Mexico.
Where I’m from pig brains and scrambled eggs are a delicacy. In parts of Missouri a fried pig brain sandwich is common. Don’t think I’d eat them straight from the can though! 😄
My grandfather regularly ate pork brains for breakfast, scrambled with eggs and served on toast. He also used that specific brand when he didn't have any fresh from our farm. Bear was pretty common on the table, too. Usually in Brunswick stew along with venison.
In Sweden we eat bear meat, moose meat, wild boar meat, reindeer meat, seal meat. Taste great is one of the best meat products you can eat because they are made in nature by themselves without preservatives.
I wish one of the Tryers had said the nutritional information for the pork brains as the cholesterol amount always amazed me. Here it is as the daily recommended intake: Total Fat 5g. 8% Saturated Fat 2.5g. 13% Cholesterol 3190mg. 1063% Sodium 500mg. 21% Total Carbohydrates 9g. 3% Protein 14g.
During Vietnam they often fed us horse. Any day they chow hall was running a special hamburger day you knew what is was going to be. Not to bad a lot redder than beef but ground into burgers and being hungry you did not ask or care
Yea I did not have a problem with it, but also I grew up on a ranch in California and we never mane any animal except the pigs and cows. You know pork chop and T Bone and things like that. I am glad to see I am not the only person in the world that has no problem eating horse
If you don’t have a problem eating pigs and cows and sheep etc you shouldn’t really have issues eating any meat. Once you get to know the animal and figure out it’s unique personality, it just adds to the flavour 😋
4:20 Shout out to the Carnivore 🔥 One of the best restaurants in Nairobi, Kenya. It's featured in the top 50 restaurants in the world on several occasions as well
My maternal grandfather, who grew up in South Carolina USA, ate "brains and eggs" for breakfast regularly. Southern supermarkets still sell canned pork and/or sheep brains. I recognized that can immediately, but that one is packed in gravy... you can get them in brine of pickled, as well. The more you know! 😂
The reason why horse meat isn't usually eaten in Western cultures isn't about ethical concerns though - it's because so many medicines are made with horses, snake antivenin for example, and people who eat horse regularly don't have the same effect from the medicine as people who don't eat horse.
Meat is meat doesn't really matter where it comes from. the only thing that matters is how it's cooked, preparation, and flavour is everything. It would have been more fun if they never knew what they were having until later. I've cooked game for people before and they loved it until they knew what it was.
I've been to Carnivore restaurant!! The whole concept was incredible. My favourite memory from there was the guy coming round with ostrich asking if we wanted "beeeg cheeeeeken" 😂 he was so lovely. And the food was incredible. Except the crocodile 🤢
@LindaC616 I enjoy ostrich, but having grown up in South Africa I would attribute it to that. Same as countries who eat horse or other animals we wouldn't normally associate with food. It's culture and personal taste I think?
I see (one) of my favorite TRY CHANNEL tries Gráinne is this video so I'm happy 😊 💚 . I'm feeling do bad watching this since one of my favorite Triers is on it😢 .
First off, I hope you all are staying safe. Your country usually does not make the news in such a way. A couple of sayings I have come across over the years: "Hunger is the best spice." "The difference between what you will eat and won't eat is 24 hours." For future shoots of this nature, I recommend NOT telling them what it is until after they have tried it. Let's get an honest, unbiased opinion first. Then they can throw up all they want. LOL
When I was a student at university--oh, more years ago than I care to say--in Oregon in the US, we could buy fresh horse meat at a meat market. Roast it up like you would beef, serve it that way or make sandwiches. Very lean and dry, very cheap and thus affordable on a student budget. Brains are delicious in scrambled eggs or a casserole. You can get brain tacos here at some Mexican taco trucks.
When I was a chef, vendors used to bring us all kinds of exotic meats in attempts to get us to buy them: Alligator, rattlesnake, ostrich, elk, you name it. The only one I found unpalatable was frog.
I've never tried croc, but I've had gator. It's good, although it tastes like chicken and smells like fish. Confused the hell out of my nose! Rattlesnake wasn't my favorite, but it's edible. Bear is greasy. My favorite was moose. That was good. Elk too. I don't think I've tried anything truly exotic. I'd like to try ostrich, musk ox, reindeer, or animals like that.
In Australia we do have options to eat Kanagroo, emu and crocodile. Kangaroo tastes like roast beef and emu does have this oil that if you eat enough of it you do start to smell like an emu. Crocodile tastes like chicken all very tasty

Collin was holding onto that "horse d'oeuvres" joke from the second he found out it was on the menu
I'm surprised no one responded by saying that at least it was being served to them only as a starter and not as a mane (main)
At the start, they should've told them all to saddle up, and rein in their long faces-- stop foaling around!

There are few moments that have made me happier than Seamus in this video. His description of sea lion damn near killed me....
The calcium-rich properties of milk react with enzymes in the meat to gently soften the proteins ...
yep, it also helps get rid of some of the irony taste in those kinds of meats.

1.Bear, a mix taste wise of beef and pork,gotta cook it well though,trichinosis potential if not..super tasty
2.Seal yep,like beef and salmon mixed together,very rich in flavor
3.Horse,more or less a very lean beef,also needs to be cooked well,again there's a risk of trichinosis..it was ok.
For people wondering Yes it needs Milk, Brains when cooked need to be poached in milk to get rid of the sliminess and certain flavors.
But what you gonna serve with it? Pork brains and cabbage?
@jefferywarburton2116 after poaching you can lightly pan fry with heavy seasoning and serve with vegetables. The poaching is mostly to cook with out losing volume since it can dry up super fast
Or you just don’t eat brains unless it’s zombie apocalypse time.
That sounds a bit better than trying to make a bean work with the milk element. Ha, pea brains.

Pork brains are best served (and cooked with) scrambled eggs! And, yes, a dash of milk would be needed for the brains. I have a fondness for "Eggs and Brains" since I was a very small child.@@jefferywarburton2116
The Rose pork brains in milk gravy are made in a town just down the road from me in Sanford, North Carolina.
I’ve never tried them and they aren’t exactly on my bucket list 😆
Just so you know the milk is essential when poaching brains to get rid of slime and certain bad flavors in the brain so make sure its cooked in milk
Canned pork brains in milk is absolutely nasty as hell. Lord not only would I not eat it with it being so nasty tasting from a can. I wouldn't even try to feed it to my dog cuz he would look at me like are you out of your mind, play to be honest out of a can my dog would probably bite me trying to feed him brains like that.😅😅😅
@@emilyabernathy952 Agreed with you there... I mean, "milk gravy"? I couldn't really imagine what Milk Gravy tastes like.
horse meat is sold in some supermarkets or butcher shops here.(Québec, Canada). it looks darker than beef and is much leaner. Game meat can also be bought in specialty meat shops.
I thought that when I unknowingly ate whale meat (in fish paste form) while in Japan, that it couldn't get any worse (because they're one of my favorite animals). Gráinne reacting to the horse meat was basically how I reacted too 🥲 Japan I love you, but some of these food things are just... T-T
Japan has never had the ability to feed itself; they must import a large percentage of their food. Consequently if it crawls, slithers,walks, swims or flies it is going to be eaten. About the only thing you can safely say that is NOT on the menu is human flesh.🤢😵💫🤮
I absolutely love bison. Only had it twice, but both times it was fantastic. Pretty hard to find in California
My favorite meat as well. I've had a lot of bison.
My favorite as well. It's like beef, but tastes twenty times better. Why is it so hard to find in Cali? You're literally just two states away from one of the biggest bison-producing states.
@@willsofer3679 ig I more meant at an alright price 😅😅
Got all the time in Colorado nice and lean
@@willsofer3679 Sometimes I find some ground buffalo in Sprouts or Whole Foods.
There are a couple of Bison delivery companies that are good but high dollar.
The majority of people today are not learning anything from the history lessons that are taught in school. Mainly because not much of history is taught. One example is that, during WW-II, horse meat was sold in the markets so that beef could be given to the soldiers in Europe. Another tidbit is that bear meat, usually springtime black bear, is often hunted by those living and surviving on the land.
Bear meat is actually tasty.
Bear meat contains worms that can and will kill humans.
Harvest one thats been feeding on berries instead of fish.
I always boil the hell out of bear because of trichinosis. Now chronic wasting disease has made it to the deer population in my area too.
Ill eat anything if I have to
There is a place in South Elgin, IL that makes jerky from bear, moose, alligator, elk, and venison, by now it may even have wild pig.
Seeing the terrible activities in Dublin yesterday, I hope everything with the Try'ers and their families are OK.
Sounded like the horse meat was definitely a Trigger for Grainne, and Sea Lion was not a mane attraction either. The Pork Brains looked absolutely mental, but Bear was the polar opposite.
Go to your room.
Their reactions were hysterical! One of the funniest videos I've seen on the channel
2:17 "i've never had to eat the same meat as my pet" ... Nor would you ever want to.
The puns are brilliant 😂, these are definitely things I've never seen in a New Zealand supermarket or any store lol.
Interesting,
I've never watched channels like this and now I found yours and can't stop watching 🎉have a blessed weekend ahead
Not a very adventurous eater, but I’ve had horse sashimi. In my youth, I hunted and ate squirrel and rabbit, plus once had the opportunity to eat gator, caribou and rattlesnake. Of course, deer hunting and venison is a staple in my family.
"Not a very adventurous eater" proceeds to name foods most people probably haven't eaten lol
Collin's puns are fantastic. He is so good at them.
That is true. They are very punie.
I hope someone is able to send them a can of Rocky mountain oysters to try. If there is such a thing.
So the brains being in milk. The primary reason a meat variety would be in milk is because it tends to draw.whatever residual blood is in the tissue out and helps ensure that it can be cooked to a safe level without over cooking. It's actually a great idea when cooking raw chicken especially full hindquarters where bones may affect its ability to fully cook through. It's a fairly common practice in US restaurants to soak or "brine" chicken in milk or buttermilk overnight. Several of the restaurants I worked at where we did broasted chicken used this method
Being Canadian, bear, moose, and deer are rather common when in season (and moose meatballs in your tomato sauce over pasta is deeeelicious), but I think the 'weirdest' thing I've ever had was conch when in Florida. It was the appetizer prior to shark steak, both of which were lovely. To be fair though, they were fresh, I don't know if I could do tinned weird meat. My hat's off to you all, you're braver than I.
Conch is basically a giant sea snail. And we all know someone that probably eats snails. But kudos for giving it a go. I know a lot of people that never try anything new or different.
Fellow Canadian here, I tried seal once and it was really dark in colour and metallic tasting. Bear meat tasted "off" to me. But like a lot of animals, it can taste like what it's been eating.
As a Canadian as well - Moose and bear are fairly common. I can agree.
Conch chowder is a particularly popular soup in Florida. We have the usual fish, corn, and clam as well. Conchs are strange and valuable mostly in the tourist trade for their shells. Like mollusks, once they die the smell will kill you.
Yeah, its not strange at all here, but I will say that Moose requires a ton of preparation to actually make it not dry and gamey. Also, Seal has a really foul odor strong when cooked.
@@darrentaber4443best steak I ever had was bbq moose hunted by a family friend.
Seconded by dry aged beef. Someone really should dry age moose.
Pork brains should be fried with scrambled eggs or deep fried on a bun. It's a regional dish in Evansville Indiana.
If it's dead and I'm hungry, it's food! If it's not dead, well... I can fix that!
I want to see you try Sturmstromming or however it's spelled. Finland fermenting fish in cans. Can't be shipped to the US because the cans (already bulging) explode in the unpressurized cargo holds!
I just love all these people.
This is the episode I’ve been waiting for! The suspense!
I had alligator many years ago….and I can STILL remember the taste! 😋
One of the top ten try videos for sure!
Feels like a late Halloween Special. Some brave people there.
"Cattle of the water" had me rolling.
This was the funniest episode I've seen in a while. Thanks for making me laugh.
Two possible jokes for the brains segment: "What are we, Zombies?" and "Where's the Scarecrow, we got some brains for him?"
The label on the can says
stewed seasoned beef with "horse meat flavor"
Ooh. Good catch!
Always enjoy the channel! Please do let the panel know about the topic of strobing, so they may better plan their on-camera wardrobe choices.
Pork Brains in a can, that I haven't seen. Normally get them from the butcher. My mother loves having scrambled eggs and brains for breakfast.
I was really hoping one of the tryers would quote The Big Lebowski and say, “Sometimes you eat the bar…sometimes the bar eats you.”
You can get fried alligator meat in my area. I've had some good horse. Italians make fabulous cold cuts out of horse; Mortadella di cavallo for example. The strange thing is the majority of horse meat served in the world is exported from the U.S., where it can't legally be served.
@@nittyblahblah8939 No. I'm from North Carolina. It's harder to get fresh gators here, since they are more limited, though still hunted. Plenty is sold frozen from the Gulf area, though.
@nittyblahblah8939 I lived south of camp Shelby all the way to katrina, my pops was a seabee, but I tell everyone where I live now my favorite poboy is gator
I would say that maybe the horses came from the US. But the meat came from Mexico since the US does not slaughter horses anymore. They are all shipped out to Mexico.
Where I’m from pig brains and scrambled eggs are a delicacy. In parts of Missouri a fried pig brain sandwich is common. Don’t think I’d eat them straight from the can though! 😄
I had a bear steak once. Wasn't bad - just had to make sure it is cooked right.
And by that you mean fully cooked right? If not Google trichinosis and get checked for it
i eat rosies brains and milk every week and if you scramble it with eggs like we do here in the southern us it is wonderful
I kept waiting for SOMEONE to reference the Bear's "SMOKEY" Flavor!
They didn't grow up with Smokey there in the Evergreen land....
My grandfather regularly ate pork brains for breakfast, scrambled with eggs and served on toast. He also used that specific brand when he didn't have any fresh from our farm. Bear was pretty common on the table, too. Usually in Brunswick stew along with venison.
“Cattle of the water” made me bawl in such immense pain and pleasure, I find it hard to describe…
Shoutouts to the entire Production Team!!! 🤙🏿🍻
Bear is delicious, but you have to worry about Trichinosis.
Bear tastes like absolute shit
In Sweden we eat bear meat, moose meat, wild boar meat, reindeer meat, seal meat.
Taste great is one of the best meat products you can eat because they are made in nature by themselves without preservatives.
I had a bear steak a few years ago in Estonia, soo good. Nice and tender...
Also had hare, also realy good.
You mean, They never skinned the bear?
@@fr2ncm9lol. Dad pun win. Well done
I wish one of the Tryers had said the nutritional information for the pork brains as the cholesterol amount always amazed me.
Here it is as the daily recommended intake:
Total Fat 5g. 8%
Saturated Fat 2.5g. 13%
Cholesterol 3190mg. 1063%
Sodium 500mg. 21%
Total Carbohydrates 9g. 3%
Protein 14g.
During Vietnam they often fed us horse. Any day they chow hall was running a special hamburger day you knew what is was going to be. Not to bad a lot redder than beef but ground into burgers and being hungry you did not ask or care
Here in Sweden they sell coldsmoked horsemeat as sandwichtopping and it's delicious. And up until 10-20 years ago it was marketed as hamburgermeat :)
Yea I did not have a problem with it, but also I grew up on a ranch in California and we never mane any animal except the pigs and cows. You know pork chop and T Bone and things like that. I am glad to see I am not the only person in the world that has no problem eating horse
I had just taken a sip of water when I heard "yea or neigh". Then I had to dry off my phone.
If you want it snappy, you should order a rubber band sandwich.
@@nittyblahblah8939That works too! LOL
@@nittyblahblah8939well done!
If you don’t have a problem eating pigs and cows and sheep etc you shouldn’t really have issues eating any meat. Once you get to know the animal and figure out it’s unique personality, it just adds to the flavour 😋

Shout out to the Carnivore 🔥
One of the best restaurants in Nairobi, Kenya. It's featured in the top 50 restaurants in the world on several occasions as well
My maternal grandfather, who grew up in South Carolina USA, ate "brains and eggs" for breakfast regularly. Southern supermarkets still sell canned pork and/or sheep brains. I recognized that can immediately, but that one is packed in gravy... you can get them in brine of pickled, as well. The more you know! 😂
The reason why horse meat isn't usually eaten in Western cultures isn't about ethical concerns though - it's because so many medicines are made with horses, snake antivenin for example, and people who eat horse regularly don't have the same effect from the medicine as people who don't eat horse.
The only Horse Meat Ranch in my State was closed & the trade banned simply because Horse no other reason.
Don't come to Louisiana we sell horse meat
@@psycholeo2396you damn French influenced will eat anything.
Family is also from Louisianna. Love me some frog legs😂
My Nana used to eat the pork brains when I was a kid. I asked her what they tasted like. She said they tasted like sausage with bits of bone in it.
Surprised that there's no alligator
Meat is meat doesn't really matter where it comes from. the only thing that matters is how it's cooked, preparation, and flavour is everything. It would have been more fun if they never knew what they were having until later. I've cooked game for people before and they loved it until they knew what it was.
I am not even from Ireland but that horse meat scandal sounds triggering.
Try'rs y'all rock! Love the channel and content. Peace
I've been to Carnivore restaurant!! The whole concept was incredible. My favourite memory from there was the guy coming round with ostrich asking if we wanted "beeeg cheeeeeken" 😂 he was so lovely. And the food was incredible. Except the crocodile 🤢
Go est crocodile with curry in Suriname, bcuz I think they prepared it wrong for you tbh
Same! 1989, maybe?
Ostrich is gamey, not very good
@LindaC616 I enjoy ostrich, but having grown up in South Africa I would attribute it to that. Same as countries who eat horse or other animals we wouldn't normally associate with food. It's culture and personal taste I think?
@@traceypotter7669 likely
Two of the best voices finally work together : Seamus and Graeme.
Oh no not the horse meat😂
I see (one) of my favorite TRY CHANNEL tries Gráinne is this video so I'm happy 😊 💚 . I'm feeling do bad watching this since one of my favorite Triers is on it😢 .
First off, I hope you all are staying safe. Your country usually does not make the news in such a way.
A couple of sayings I have come across over the years:
"Hunger is the best spice."
"The difference between what you will eat and won't eat is 24 hours."
For future shoots of this nature, I recommend NOT telling them what it is until after they have tried it. Let's get an honest, unbiased opinion first. Then they can throw up all they want. LOL
I agree ....that footage yesterday looked unreal
Seamus I love the purple and green shirts.
I challenge you all to try Newfoundland seal flipper pie. 😊 or Cod tongues
I WAS drinking a latte while watching this...as soon as the pig brains in milk came out, though the latte was thrown out 😂
I don't mean to be rude, but, what the heck?
Idk why but Gráinne always cracks me up 😂😂😂😂
The only part of a camel that Ive eaten was the toe.
Milk in cereal is nice and traditional but try a nice cold brew mocha next time. Keeps the kids going all day.
You should have a trigger warning for snowflakes
Yup And scanning through the comments. There appears to be a lot of them.😂
When I was a student at university--oh, more years ago than I care to say--in Oregon in the US, we could buy fresh horse meat at a meat market. Roast it up like you would beef, serve it that way or make sandwiches. Very lean and dry, very cheap and thus affordable on a student budget.
Brains are delicious in scrambled eggs or a casserole. You can get brain tacos here at some Mexican taco trucks.
When I was a chef, vendors used to bring us all kinds of exotic meats in attempts to get us to buy them: Alligator, rattlesnake, ostrich, elk, you name it. The only one I found unpalatable was frog.
Gator is one of my favorite meats. Like chicken with the texture of calamari... Works really well fried as fritters.
8:45 Seamus: That was the worst one.
Also Seamus: Licks the fork.
I've never tried croc, but I've had gator. It's good, although it tastes like chicken and smells like fish. Confused the hell out of my nose!
Rattlesnake wasn't my favorite, but it's edible. Bear is greasy. My favorite was moose. That was good. Elk too.
I don't think I've tried anything truly exotic. I'd like to try ostrich, musk ox, reindeer, or animals like that.
9:57 - Colin pulls a bad Dad joke on Blaíthin.
That seems to be the "mane" thing with this channel. . . .

@@mortensen1961 Well, most of the jokes get a seal of approval...
(I'm here all ze week, try ze veal)
Collin never misses a beat 😂😂😂 you have to give credit, where it's do.
In Australia we do have options to eat Kanagroo, emu and crocodile. Kangaroo tastes like roast beef and emu does have this oil that if you eat enough of it you do start to smell like an emu. Crocodile tastes like chicken all very tasty
THE PUNS! THE PUNS! They were awesome! I could almost not BEAR it!
A few years ago in Sedona, Arizona, I had Rattlesnake sausage at a restaurant. It was a little tough but otherwise just kind of like dry chicken
It IS tough but I think if you served it to 100 people unseen…that 95 would think it was overcooked, dry chicken
Milk is used to tenderize some meats, they use it on deer a lot.
I love that the try channel exist because you try stuff that i wonder about but would never touch if i didnt get a million dollars.
