She should do, she is married to one, and recognises a respectable 'Greenie'
when she sees one :-)))

(Not 'pruned' for those on urg who like to scroll down and read all the
interesting postings again)

I imagine they mostly buy frozen ones - certainly that's what I do. IME,
frozen ones, even in the height of the fresh pea season are more
reliable in terms of quality and taste than fresh ones unless you get
them good and fresh. Fresh ones are also relatively expensive it seems,
esp. once you've bought enough to pod.

If we do buy fresh ones it's usually for the kids to nibble straight
from the pod. Which is what happens to the ones we grow in the garden
anyway.

now are these the same oversized rat looking things I'm familiar with
that are even in the cities? (we have possom's in Nashville that
scared the crap outa me. I thought they WERE rats, but it was possom's
the size of small dogs!! Possom was always a bit greasy.....my
grandmammy only had Pearline to cook it once, and they put it in milk
and then flour before they fried it. Now squirrel and goat (although a
bit stringy) is alright. I've had ground hog or as some might call it,
whistle pig. He's an herbivore, so the meat is very clean and good. I
had it in stew that I knew not to ask the cook what was in the pot. I
ate it, it was very tasty, and it didn't kill me. This man also could
cook up a batch of mountain oysters that you swore was just good
chicken livers........LOL (or at least my youngest son thought it was
chicken livers! )

well Shang Dawei, I happen to think that when cooked properly, turtle
is good. It's five kinds of meat. I've had turtle as a child and
remember it was tasty. My uncles brought round snappers many times
and it was pretty nice. a type of soup or fried up. I adore frog
legs, but never knew you could just crunch the bones up and it them
all.
I am of the age when over here we used to have horse meat. I remember
it was horse meat because it cooked up quite red. They stopped doing
that by the time I reached sixth grade (the end of elementary school
for us here in those days). I liked it. It was sweet. THey'd cook up
"hamburgers" with home made buns and I remember asking the lunch lady
if it was cooked all the way through and she assured me it was cooked
well done, that it was horsemeat. I've had snake. Rattle snake. I
love it. And rabbit. sort of dry, and I LOVE alligator tail. And of
course, Crawfish. yum.
Over here is an interesting show on the Travel channel called Bizarre
Foods with Andrew Zimmern. This man will eat anything that people
around the world fix and then describe how it tastes, smells, chews,
and any other description he can give. I find it facinating and watch
him crunching things that sometimes he says is horrible, and other
things he loves......
Right now our main source of meat is venison that my aunt and uncle
gave us a whole one dressed and ground up into one pound meat tubes to
freeze. I'd rather eat venison than beef over here now, mainly
because I don't want antibiotics, steroids or hormones in my meat! or
in the case of sausages, High Frutose Corn Syrup. I don't need that in
my meat.
anyway, I agree, yuck........roadkill? nope, not unless it's cold and
that deer on the side of the road was just hit this morning! (and
word has it that armadillo is quite good too! LOL
