I haven’t cooked, baked or otherwise prepared sushi, escargot or deep fried insects. Nor do I intend to.
I won’t cook internal organs, squirrel or skunk, nor will I eat “anything.” Even hunger has its limits.
If the mod permits...
Actually, I read a story where the characters ate fried grasshoppers basted in honey, that made it sound interesting.
Nothing I’ve read makes sushi interesting.
I have nothing against squirrel, but I prefer a rabbit any day. I once lived in a part of the country so overgrown with rabbits I started buying bbq sauce in gallon jugs.
The only animal I categorically define as inedible is the prarie dog. I roasted one out of curiosity, and it was so rank and nasty, I had one nibble and gave it to a “woof woof” dog. He was smarter than me; one sniff and he wanted nothing to do with it.
My mother knew how to prepare many strange animal products. Then, I had cooking lessons from a couple of Trinidadian friends and learned about more unfamiliar products. The Filipinos served purple yams—have you ever had those? They’re yummy. When it comes to animal protein culinary scale, I’m tone deaf. *Love* working w/veggies, fruits, eggs and milk, and manage to make everything that’s good for you bad for you.
People cook skunk? I thought they just ran over them, poor little things.
