Happened to me when I first came to Egypt too - actually it didn't taste too bad and I had just eaten it when I found out what it was .................. However I'm glad I didn't try the "sausage" on the same plate.
Iv'e tried most things if and when I come across them, the first was a tin of chocolate ants when I was eight, my Dad let me try anything along as I ate it. Squirrel is quite popular in St Johns'. Love the idea of Oysters but they make me gag trying them…..
Ps: personally not big on pigeon, pheasants ok! though…
Love my Haggis though and love to promote https://www.facebook.com/MacsweenHaggis?fref=ts

I once knew someone from Guinea who said, "You see a snake in the road, you just catch it and eat it." Buying it at a pet shop sounds perfectly sophisticated compared to that.

:doh:
Since when were testicles "cows' eggs"?
Scrummy, but they come from a bull!
They are also not vegetarian - nor eggs.

Is there an organised pigeon racing club or association in or around Luxor?

I used to really enjoy being a pigeon fancier. We have raced pigeons in England on what is known as the North Road from Thurso to Bedfordshire and when racing on the South Road as far away as Nantes...

This is quite an old remedy .
In fact its origins go back centuries.
The fact that it has no scientific credibility doesn't lessen its use by the gullible. Hepatitis can disappear of its own...
