Makes a great diet dish.

Why`s that? It kills your appitite?

Pear Cactus? Are`nt those the ones that grow those purple "pear shape" fruit? I have some in my front yard.
I have "century Plant" too. Mexicans come and ask if they can cut some off to make "medicine" aka; "Tequila".

Let`s see, I`ve had rattlesnake, frog legs, not bad, but you`d have to eat 5lbs to make it a meal. You don`t have to tell me, it`s a side dish.

At an inlaws wedding I had "Shark". I`d never had sushi(barf) before, I seen it on the table and thought that`s what it was so thought I`d try it. I took a piece, bit into it, was like a strip if white rubber, I could`nt bite into it. Then I was told it had to be deep fried :oops:
I was fairly new to California at that time.

Fish is great, but stay away from the guy to the left.

Oh man, don't even tell me that you've eaten armadillo MD! :lol: .
Generally speaking I am not a connoisseur of roadkill cuisine, but I think you're right, gravy wouldn't work. Excuuuse me...does anyone have any Grey Poupon...?

That sounds much better Neese.
Can't say I have ever eaten armadillo though but I have had rattlesnake and cactus stew once, not too bad.

It's the other, other, other white meat.

I ate armadillo once when I was a kid, and lived to tell about it. Not that I would do it again.

We just spent a week in NY - eating out almost all the time. While we ate at fairly nice restaurants, I still wondered about it from time to time. I will say the best tasting food I had was at a street fair. I hope it wasn't something strange. If it was, it was something really big - I saw them cut the meat off the 'chunk'.

We went to a farmer's market in NY to buy some veggies and I saw people selling meat. They had chicken, ducks, goat, and sheep. These were not on ice - just bagged in plastic. This was meat they had raised themselves. This surprised me as I have never seen anyone selling fresh meat like that before.
