Steve Bansbach, who works for Chicago’s CPB office, said the passenger had admitted that he was carrying the rat meat on his journey from the Ivory Coast.

“He declared it,” Bansbach said to Fox News. “He claimed he had meat during inspection. We found that, yes, he had African rat meat — 32 pounds of it.”

Sounds good whatever it is?
But I have to pass, having recently converted to veganism.

I'm going to take a different tack. As long as the rat eats "in the field" its diet is no different than raccoons and opossums. so the taste should be about the same. But you have to remember, not to eat raccoons and opossums that live around humans because they will eat just like rats.

If you were raised in the country in the south up until the 1970s, then you have probably eaten raccoons and opossums. They are almost entirely dark meat and taste pretty good. The only difference is that opossum fat is really greasy and slick, so we would scrape that off before cooking them.

If you’ve eaten rabbit or squirrel, it is probably similar.

Elgin? Naperville?

Yes, out that way.

Years ago I would put Lat/Long out.
Sadly times have changed.

Long ago using an acoustic modem at 300 Baud!!!
I attempted to contact a friend on the west coast at work.
To log in on their system, it asks for the usual name, number...EMAIL...

A few years ago I found out the logs were PUBLIC!!
The search engines connect all the dots, everything!

I still use that email address!
Now the search engines appear to have dropped it?

So nowadays I attempt to be vague about anything that connects to the real world.

Next to the Troll with the large rock smashing cars near the main entrance.
Yes, the troll has been very helpful to me.
A good guy.

Squirrel have a pleasant odor rats lack so he probably didn’t fool anyone for long.

Never exposed to either one, just southern boys and their stories...........
