Rabbit, squirrel and raccoon have all been on the menus of families during hard times. They survived.
Rabbit and squirrel are excellent if prepared properly,but eating a raccoon.....
Rabbit and squrriel need no hard times to be on the menu.
I have been visiting my 92 and 83 year old aunts all week. The other day we were talking and the 92 year old says........I wish I had a possum to eat. I almost died laughing. They were raised really poor and ate everything.
