I have eaten some weird meat during my life: ostrich, frog, snail, various types of game (rabbit, deer, pheasant, etc), shark (not fins, steak). Pretty good. I just can't stomach lamb or goat, but the most disgusting meat I have ever tasted by far is kangaroo meat. I could not eat more than a bite. Worst meat ever. I feel so sorry for Australians and aboriginals.

I think it would be easier to list the meat I DO eat-- cod, tilapia, chicken, beef, and an occasional pork or turkey product. Everything else is haram.
 
Bear meat is horrible, it's gamy as fuck, extremely greasy, and just not very good
 
Turkey breast has what I would call an anti-flavor: it sucks the flavor out of anything you put on it, be it gravy, herbs or spices. Turkey legs aren't much better.
 
Speaking of which, I now remember sea urchin was another disappointment for me. I was so hopeful because they're everywhere, they're annoying and I thought I could harvest them and eat them all the time if they were tasty but alas. Just orange gunk with a yucky seaweed flavour. Nothing like crab, shrimp, mussles, clams, scallops, oysters or any of the more tasty sea fruit.
 
I've seen some sneaky food manufacturers sell "keta" salmon as food for humans. Keta is a word they invented because chum salmon doesn't sound very appetizing, and rightly so. Chum salmon is dog food and no one should ever eat it. Pink salmon isn't much better. It's poor man's salmon and if you want fish you'd be better off buying tuna or something else good rather than buy pink salmon and convince yourself that it's good because it's salmon.

TLDR:
Orange (farmed and sick to the point of death corn fed (no I am not kidding)) salmon you buy is dyed orange

Farmed salmon is trash, but the one saving grace of the salmon farming industry is that it takes a lot of pressure off of wild salmon populations. The wild salmon industry is nearly unsustainable even with 70% of the salmon people eat coming from farms. If all the world's salmon consumption were coming from the wild it would either wipe out populations within a few years or raise salmon to exorbitant prices because the supply would have to be heavily restricted. Such restriction would paradoxically increase the harvest of salmon because if the prices increased to such high amounts, people would say fuck the rules and overharvest because they want money.

It's especially a problem with king salmon because they naturally have lower populations and longer life cycles than other salmon. It's nearly impossible to catch king salmon in rivers now because commercial fisheries have settled on the bare minimum of fish allowed to pass into the rivers as to not completely eradicate the run.

Are we counting "insects" since that's a tooootally viable protein source in place of actual meat? 'Cuz I don't like those, either. I can't imagine sitting there eating steak made from ground roaches and mealworms, no thanks.
