I'm English and I'd never even heard of stargazy pie until I saw it on this site, and I think 95% of the country probably aren't aware of it's existence.
People do know the heads (and tails) aren't supposed to be eaten right? (though I suppose one could go for the tongue, cheeks, and some other bits on them if you were so inclined) Their presence is really almost entirely for shock value and amusement, the pie itself is a pretty bog standard savory fish pie otherwise.
This monstrosity on the other hand... regardless if you're supposed to eat the heads or not chocolate laced with fish oil is going to be nasty.
That's what you'd think... and yet here in the Philippines, Champorado (chocolate rice porridge) is sometimes topped with salted fish for breakfast. I personally haven't tasted it yet, but some people I know swear by the combination.

I've found that the word "delicacy" is a code-term for "crazy-ass shit nobody in their right mind would ever eat."
There's stuff like chocolate-covered ants and such, of course. And not that I'd want to spread the notion of crazy American foods any further than Ido already has, but there were some strange-filling chocolate bars people tried spreading a year or two back, and the one that became really popular was maple syrup-bacon-chocolate bars.
Salt makes sweet taste sweeter, and some people just can't get enough sweetness.

I googled it and...Wha~t? Salted fish? They're trying to balance the sweetness with saltiness, i get it, but why salted fish? In my home country, there's something similiar to this, but we sometimes combine it with sweet mung bean porridge and slice of bread on top of it. Or diced bread.
