May 17, 2007: Croc for sale to be et

[ladyangevil]

Know someone who ate crocodile meat... she said it tasted like chicken. LOL. Surprisingly for me at that time, the meat is soft... eeww... she even ate rabbit meat once...and snail... oh great... i'm having breakfast in a few minutes...that thought surely is appetizing.

Snails are great on your breakfast cereal. They get shrinkage in cold milk, however.

Eh? Surely it shows more respect to eat those that could eat you - it's just bullying to eat those that can't (sez me who has never killed anything I've eaten in my life!)

I know snails are an acquired taste, but I hadn't realised rabbit was considered grim...? Perhaps a British thing - rabbit isn't uncommon on the menu here, although I admit I haven't cooked it myself, it was a staple of my childhood. Works well in casseroles.

That's why you make porridge of them!

I think I've had croc. I've had alligator but it was in quite an overpowering sauce so I can't comment on the finer points of the taste. Damn good though.

That porridge sounds good, but it also sounds like a lot of work.
