Perish the thought!
LOL! BTW, I just looked up the squirrel-eating passage in "The Hobbit":
"The food would not last for ever: it was in fact already beginning to get low. They tried shooting at the squirrels, and they wasted many arrows before they managed to bring one down on the path. But when they roasted it, it proved horrible to taste, and they shot no more squirrels."
