Oh, Louisiana.<\/p>\n

01. Cracklings:<\/b> Cracklings are deep fried animal skin (pork rinds are a type of crackling). When I asked the lady next to me if the crackling in my mouth was pork, she replied, “if you want it to be.” I was later told that it was probably duck skin. <\/p>\n

02. Boudin:<\/b> I had “Boudin Blanc,” which according to Wikipedia, is “a white sausage made of pork without the blood. Pork liver and heart meat are typically included. In Cajun versions, the sausage is made from a pork rice dressing, (much like dirty rice) which is stuffed into pork casings.” Although the one I tried had sausage, I was told that “Gator Boudin” and “Crawfish Boudin” were also common.<\/p>\n

03. Hot Pickled Quail Eggs:<\/b> Pretty self explanitory. Upon first seeing the jar, I thought it was a Halloween prop — a jar full of bloody eyeballs. Nope — turns out, it was the midday snack. The “good” thing about these (if you like them) is that you will be tasting them in every burp for hours to come after eating one. I thought the vinegar taste was stronger than the pepper. <\/p>\n
