What animals do you surprisingly find tasty?
A copycat, I know, but I had quail recently and it was damn good stuff.

27. Natural game is good.
I don't hunt animals but I'd rather eat an animal that actually lived, instead of a bovine version of a lab rat.

My Dad and brothers have friends who hunt. Try elk someday.

Venison is good but every time I think about it I see Ted Nugent and it totally puts me off. (In the dictionary under "imbecile"....)

Lots. Grew up in Greenwich Village as a child,
amazing what I got to eat.

Had a seaweed and krill pizza once, that was surprisingly tasty.

7. Larvets
Yep, the same things (or almost) I found squirming in my trash can are very tasty, when fried up. Who knew? I don't know whether to yak or order more.

13. Well, why do you think they call 'em MEAL worms?
Our professor of Entomology here likes sauted cicadas...He says you have to get 'em before the shell and wings harden for best texture....

10. Crawfish
I know they are not an animal, but boiled up hot and spicy, they are a delicacy with corn on the cob, potatoes, onions, garlic and a pitcher of ice cold beer. Savor that crawfish boil and let the good times roll.
