To most of us, jellyfish are those slimy things that justify peeing on another person. But in parts of the world, jellies are tasty, tasty treats and make for yummy soup, salad and snacks! About a dozen species of jellyfish are edible, and people have been chewing on them for a long time. Emphasis on the chewing.
Jellyfish require some pretty intensive processing to get to the form you can pick up in your neighborhood Asian market. And while jellyfish noms are labor-intensive, they’re great diet food: pretty much all water and lean protein. Like a salad, but fishy! A fishy salad with a deep history of use in Chinese Medicine! Frankly, what more could you ask for?
What crazy, disgusting, or smelly foods would you like to see us eat on the show? Have you tried jellyfish yourself? What did you think? (Was it seasoned properly?) Does weird texture freak you out as much as Georgia and Kelsey? Are you disdainful of Truly’s lack of Jellyfish culinary skill?
On Why Would You Eat That? we scour the globe for the most bizarre foods and explain why anyone would be crazy enough to eat them. You'll be shocked to see how one man's trash can actually be another man's delicacy. Don't forget to subscribe to Tasted, support us on Patreon, so we can keep these episodes a-comin’!
