 |
|
Koreans, looking perhaps for something unusual for the dinner table, will soon have the chance to add kangaroo to their shopping list. A local food importer announced yesterday it would begin introducing the Australian marsupial to local markets.

Kangaroo pulgogi sounds interesting.
Listen, it'll never happen. Koreans can't go near lamb. Why? Because they say it's too smelly. Eew. They won't be able to get within a bull's roar of roo. (Try pronouncing that sentence out loud and stay fascionable.  )
The foulest smelling food that I ever in all my young years ever smelled which people actually ate as a delicacy was fire roasted kangaroo's tail. I nearly ralphed me guts up. |

There are ostrich farms in Korea. I've even seen restaurants that serve ostrich meat. It's easy to find online stores that offer ostrich products: eggs, feathers, meat, leather goods, and, of course, health tonics. Just do search for Ÿ�� to see what I mean. |

| Why, of course. Ostrich pilaf might be tasty as well. |

| Not me. I haven't. I've had roo fillet, roo kebabs, roo sausage and Big Mac, but not roo pilaf. I've had crocodile pilaf. It tastes like chicken. |

I've had roo sausage and roo steak. Pretty good if you like wild meat...similar in taste to deer meet.
I've seen Ostrich farms here in Suwon so I'm assuming there is a market for this kind of stuff. |

Seriously, asking as a Canuck here...
Does kangaroo meat taste good? Is it normally sold in cans like spam, should I give it a try? |
