I love to order snails down in Chinatown! Small black snails in Black Bean Garlic Sauce. Yummmmmmm! Be even better if they were big.

Put 'em to work on Saturdays starting in August.

Another reason to be afraid of Florida. That state really gives me the creeps.

"Waiter....there are snails on her plate....You would think that in a fancy restaurant at these prices you could keep the snails off the food! There are so many snails there you can't even see the food! Now take those away and bring us those melted cheese sandwich appetizers you talked me out of!"

Does anyone know how they got from Africa to the US in the first place? Can’t imagine they swam here.
