I for one welcome our new giant snail overloards and would remind them that an astute internet commenter would be a valuable asset in their quest for world domination.

Could someone please explain why the world’s supply of vermin, parasites, and incurable diseases always seem to originate from Africa?
I’m surprised that these things do well in South Florida, given the number of rats, possums, racoons, armidillos, and water birds. Are they poisonous?

As the article indicates, you shouldn't oughta eat these things, garlic butter or no garlic butter. There's plenty of stories of people eating these and getting deathly ill.
We had these little gems on Guam when I was stationed there in the late 70's. Running over them with the lawnmower was almost like running over big rocks. You had to do a sweep of the lawn before mowing to clear them all out.

Solution: Garlic butter......The snails also carry a parasitic rat lungworm that can cause illness in humans, including a form of meningitis
You can have my share.

There's plenty of stories of people eating these and getting deathly ill. Ought not to be a problem if you cook them thoroughly... and I bet a couple-three of these would make a nice pot of chowder.

Is this because of Global Warming? Or is it because of Sequestration? The answer to pestilence: 2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Zap the critters with 700 RADS of gamma radiation first and they’ll be fine.
