| In message <[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]>, mark <[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]> writes 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. -- Chris French |

(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! ) |

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 maddie in Western Tennessee |
