Sexy actress Milla Jovovich confessed to snacking on curdled camel's cheese while travelling through Mongolia, inspiring us to bring you a guide to weird food eaten the world over <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/feb/cactus-apples.jpg" border="5" /> Cactus apples, eaten in Mexico Red or purple fruits growing on beavertail cactus plants need to be removed very carefully. They are then rolled around in the sand and skinned with a sharp knife. The purple ones taste like cranberry while the red taste like pears. Be warned not to eat more than three at a time for fear of constipation. Dried bananas, eaten in Brazil Sure, we eat cooked raw bananas in the south of Andhra Pradesh, but ever thought of eating rotten ones? In Brazil, black, wrinkled, dry and sweet bananas, that shrivel to the size of a finger are considered a delicacy. Dulse, eaten in Canada Convenience stores in parts of Canada stock dried purple seaweed which contains green algae, small stones, and flotsam. Durian, eaten in Southeast Asia, especially Thailand and Malaysia The fruit, eaten fresh with coconut rice and also fermented as a side dish, is as big as a football and has a spiky skin. The pulp is pale yellow, with shape and consistency of raw brains. Some say the smell reminds them of old gym socks. In Malaysia, it's forbidden to travel with one in buses or rental cars. But it's still called the King of fruits, and is legendary less for its taste and more for its mythical aphrodisiac powers. Tempeh, eaten in Japan Made from fermented moldy soybeans and pressed into firm blocks, Tempeh sometimes even has harmless mould growths on the surface. Mountain Potato, eaten in Japan The root, eaten raw and grated, is consumed with raw tuna and a raw quail egg. When grated, the mountain potato secretes a translucent slime that is the exact consistency of mucus. Luckily, it is totally without flavour. Water Bugs, eaten in Thailand They resemble giant black cockroaches, but have a harder shell. They are highly priced for the aroma. Century eggs, eaten in China They look like eggs that have been preserved for 100 years (hence the name) but are actually a month-old, and are considered a delicacy among some communities. They look black and slimy, and don't taste like the eggs we know. Fugu Fish, eaten in Japan Considered an elite delicacy, Fugu is also one of the most dangerous fish -- its organs contain tetrodotoxin, a chemical that can render you paralyzed and asphyxiated. While no anti-venom exists to save you from Fugu poisoning, culinary thrill seekers put their faith in chefs -- they need to pass certain certifications and licenses -- who prepare the dish.
