Weird Foods from Around the World is a compendium of eccentric dishes. There’s stuff like calf head and placenta and squirrel brain and mopane caterpillars. It would probably be a challenge to find something that people don’t eat.

Slovenia has one entry: Stewed Dormice. The description says:

A Slovenian cookbook had a recipe for a nice little stew of mice raised and fattened just for cooking.

I’ve heard of some funky Slovenian dishes, but this is the first time I’ve heard of this. (Although there apparently is an “edible dormouse.”) But still. Can anyone confirm it?
