Depending upon what you consider unusual, you might be interested in these
files in the FOOD section of my Florilegium. Much of this information is
from messages off this list given in the past.

ostrich, 
                                       eels, peacocks, crawfish, dormice, snails

As I feel comments on personal experiences are often as useful as just recipe
renditions, you will find these scattered throughout my files.

My files are available at: http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/rialto/rialto.html

Hope you find these good reading.
