I have eaten escargot, and it is good. Garlicy, Buttery, Chewy, Meaty.

Note that the escargot are farm raised and cleaned, not just some slugs they found in the garden.............................

I ate home cooked escargot in Paris at a New Years Eve party (1976)...it was garlicy and nicely spiced, but the texture was not to my liking.

My grandfather used to buy them in large wicker barrels and keep them under his back porch. I've eaten them many times as a kid. Used to pull them out of the shell with a toothpick... after they were cooked, of course. They were very tasty (the snails, not the toothpicks).
