Re: Frog legs...

My mom prepared the frog's legs and hadn't done it before, so I'm sure it'd taste better with the herbs or wine! The rattlesnake was at the "First Sometimes Annual World's Fair" in Luckenbach... or maybe it was the second... I don't think they had more than a couple, lol. It was fried and on a stick. I have no idea why I agreed to try it. I guess it was all the cowboy hats and spurs... seemed like the thing to do, lol. As an adult (without parents forcing me, or peer pressure) to try "odd" foods, the strangest thing for me that I've tried was snails. I would like to try some fried bugs, but not enough to seek them out, lol. A friend of mine went to China a couple years ago and had scoprion, snake, crickets, and I don't recall what else. Course it was all on a dare, lol.

Re: Frog legs...

Had someone try and get me to eat rattlesnake at a restaurant once, I told them...."I'll eat that when you eat poodle." Sorry, but can't eat something that's so close to my heart...I've loved snakes all my life and the thought that they're being killed so tourists can have an "exotic" snack kind of upsets me. That and the fact the meat would have to be from wild caught animals...it's not like there's rattlesnake farms out there to supply the demands. Snakes have it rough enough with out becoming a menu item on top of everything else. Yeh, I know.....I'll get down off the moral soap box now!

I'd eat poodle and rattlesnake. Actually, I'd eat panda, dolphin, condor and polar bear just to mess with people.

I don't think I'd even rule out cannibalism completely.

Maybe you shouldn't worry, I'd only do those things to provoke people.

I'm also for whaling and clubbing seals.

You bet.

A classmate told me once, after a debate/discussion, that's she'd like to know what I really think about things.
