You’re probably right. But in dicksburg they tend to eat things you and I would call “bait”

I'm not gonna gross you out, but you can find a youtube on killing, cooking and eating dog in Vietnam. It's actually quite tasty I confess. And as that video says they look at it no differently than Texans do raising, killing and eating cattle or pigs. My hosts tried to trick me by not telling me what they were serving me, but I could tell by the grins when I was eating it that they were up to something. I think they wanted to see if I would throw up once I knew what I had eaten. But believe me duck blood pudding is far worse.  Yum Yum!!??

Hard pass lol “The meat is said to taste like fine-grained, high-quality pork. ... Armadillos are known to carry leprosy, and although the incidence level is fairly low in most regions there is still a risk of transmission if the meat is undercooked.”

Nothing exotic this evening. Hot roast beef Sammie’s and whipped taters. Homemade soft pretzels brushed with butter and mustard dip for after.  And for you Great Lakes Christmas Ale fans. Third week of October, it’ll be pouring then

Today I have my homemade chicken rice soup with sushi rice instead of Uncle Bens, leftover pork tenderloin in my homemade blackberry jam bourbon sauce and a dry red Cote du Rhone from that area of southern France to go with the pork tenderloin. Side dish of pasta salad with cut up fresh cherry tomatoes, chopped provolone and a Tuscan salad dressing.

BTW in case I never mentioned it I have a little sign in the kitchen I gave my wife that reads, "Men are like fine wine. They start out like grapes and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd like to have dinner with."  And on the counter below it I keep a ceramic hot plate that reads, "I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food."?

I enjoy the song Wine Wine Wine by M Hart but I’d rather cook with beer. And not light beer. More like a strong ale. The barley comes off beefy especially steaming.  Old Bay and beer..... Yum!

Oh yes nothing like the real thing on GAMEDAY or any day.

Ever do smelt? How about monk fish or others baked, fried or grilled?

Last time I had smelt was from 7 mile inn. Been awhile. As far as fish filets?  I like to fish and usually catch at least a couple crappie or channel cats but fresh is the key. I also bleed out anything larger like Walleye, steelhead, cats, etc. Having freshwater fish that fresh makes it awful hard to buy filets of anything. I do buy a good bit of shellfish tho.  Cooking..., it’s all good. I have been getting into grilling shrimp. Crappie filets... put a few in a glass pan. Brush with olive oil, light sprinkle lemon pepper. Tablespoon or so butter. Cover and microwave 3-5 minutes. It’s amazing at how tasty it is for the simplicity

Growing up I lived about 1/4 mile from Liberty Lake my dad fixed the watchman's TV and other stuff so I could fish anytime for free.

Used to walk to the lake and catch a lot of fresh fish especially big crappies and walk home and either filet them and fry or occasionally freeze and have later.

Nice too to have some Lake Erie fresh catch once in a while, oh yeah. I'm good with fried, baked or grilled anytime.

When you freeze them., do it twice. Put your filets in a bowl, bag whatever. Add some water, freeze solid then add more water. I’ve put them in a small plastic bowl. Then pop them out into a bag and freeze again.
