The wife's got a friend who's been over for Thanksgiving the last couple of years. Her kinfolk er in Alabama, and they shoot and eat a couple of coons every November instead of a turkey. She's been threatening that she's going to have one shipped up here on dry ice this year. No can do.
Gator, on the other hand -- I'm hankering to eat gator again. Gotta find a fancy joint around here that serves it.
Dog has a wonderful flavor, damned stringy, though . . .
They say the black ones are tastiest.
Squirrel soup is good if properly seasoned. I speak from experience.
Damn, I miss Vincent and his testicle eating stories. Oh, and all his other brilliant food posts,
and Cav.
So, MerryA and Set, shortly after reading your posts I went to the grocery store, and came home with fresh wild shrimp (wild shrimp?) and meatloaf fixins. No, not for the same meal.
JL, I like all your food ideas except the sacrificial human bits...
Why not raccoons, pdog? Me, I think they are cute... and would be given paws.
But, I think rabbits are cute too, and have gotten over it once a decade.
Oh, yeah, and raccoons are wilier (wilyer?) than I am.
Can't stand raccoons. Hate 'em. Nasty animals. Too many encounters with them in garbage cans to want to eat one.
I've known two coons, personally, who lived with people. They have long memories, they are spiteful and vengeful, and thoroughly decietful. If a coon is being nice to you, buddying up to you, go hide any personal effects you value.

sp raccoons are tv evangelist republicans you're saying?
Naw, neither of these coons solicited faith offerings
LionTamer, thanks. I sometimes scare myself, but it's good to know that it's not imagination.
By the way, folks, ANYTHING tastes good with the proper spicies.
salt, I gather, is all...
though not in my book. I still insist on garlic and olive oil...
here's a nice little racoon
Awful scrawny . . . i mean, you wouldn't get much of a meal outta that one . . .
Well, they ain't no referential guide to judge the size, though it does appear a fat one . . .
sometimes vegetable concessions are unavoidable
