Seahorses snacks in a Beijing market. Also from “Mutant Frog” - steamed goats` head
Edible Insects from Thailand: Roasted Giant Water Bugs, Roasted Scorpions, Large Water Bugs Preserved in Brine, Roasted Termite Eggs, more

In Portugal we eat snails too. There's an ancient (as in my grandmother's times) recipe to fight tuberculosis in which the ill person should eat raw snails. Don't know anyone who has tried it though :-)
