Snail Stew & Red Ant Chutney. India's Weirdest Foods Are...Weird.

Admin
Weird is a classic example of the concept of relativity. And as far as we on the Homegrown team are concerned, weird is definitely something we are more than just familiar with. As we sat ruminating in our own weirdness and, in short lapses, searching the expanse of this peculiar nature, we happened to stumble upon something that brought this wicked grin on the fortunate ones among us. Twisted and innovative ideas is generally our thing but, well, twisted food is another deal altogether.
We know that Best Out Of Waste is the direction to head in but eating rotten potatoes  and remnant ashes might seem like someone’s taking this all a little too seriously. Either ways, sweeping all the negativity aside, we present to you a list of seemingly weird and apparently delicious Indian food dishes that may or may not build appetite but will definitely re-instil your faith in weirdetarians- weird is our style and your preference!
