Frog Legs! Now that's good food. Also Turtle Soup! Nobody eats turtle soup anymore either.
At one time in our history turtle soup was considered a delicacy as a matter of fact.

I think you’re right. Turtle soup was considered a delicacy at one time.

From Wikipedia:

Turtle soup is soup or stews made from the flesh of the turtle. The dish exists in many cultures and is viewed as a luxury or delicacy. The green turtle was commonly used for turtle soup in the United States and United Kingdom. Soup made from the snapping turtle was found mainly in the United States. Chinese and other East Asian cuisines use primarily soft-shelled turtles for turtle soup.
