America is notorious for frying everything... but rattlesnake?! The rattlesnake population in the south has grown a lot in the last year and people have come up with a solution. Rather than killing and wasting the animal, many have begun cooking and eating them. The most popular recipe is deep fried. Begin by skinning the snake, battering it in egg mixture, and then frying it. Though it sounds unique, this dish is quite ordinary.

This Australian treat may not look scrumptuous, but it is very popular throughout the continent. To sum it up,a pie floater is an Australian meat pie submerged in pea soup. Some Aussies add a thick layer of ketchup on top. This dish is hearty and actually considered delicious, provided the ingredients used are of good quality. Many people love it for its contrast in flavor and texture but most non-Australians may think it’s just weird.
