White Ant Egg Soup, Laos

Laos is home to the world’s most peculiar soup, white ant egg soup, which is served with ants. The white ant eggs and their embryos are combined to make the soup, which is then served. If this doesn’t take you by surprise, you’re in for a big surprise later on. It is also served with a few baby ants, which lends the soup an astringent flavor. If you can get beyond the unusual components in the soup, the flavor should be pretty excellent, according to the recipe. It has a distinct shrimp flavor. As a result, if you are not sensitive to any of the ingredients in the soup, you should absolutely give it a try at least once.

Jellied Moose Nose, Canada

The name of this meal is bizarre enough to warrant inclusion on our list of the world’s strangest dishes. When it comes to eating, the nose is obviously not the first place that most people think about. However, this hasn’t stopped the more daring citizens of Canada from preparing a dish out of it anyway. The meal is first cooked with onions and spices before being served. The chef next removes the hair from the nose and boils it for a further five minutes. When it has been sufficiently boiled, it is sliced and topped with a broth to serve. We’re never, ever going to get a taste of it. Will you do it?
