No one has mentioned it here on the list but the Royal Jubilee Lamprey Pie is getting
some attention in the British press.
It's being made with Canadian lampreys from the Great Lakes.

"After that, the hard work of making the pie will fall to Sarrah Maccey of the Gloucester Folk Museum, who are considering various ancient recipes including one that cooks the creatures in a sauce of wine, vinegar, cinnamon and lamprey blood, before being baked in a tall crust."
