Yes, it's called Escargot and they are great with butter/garlic on french bread. Don't knock it till you've tried it. They are raised in farms... it's a treat for me. It's typically on the appetizer menu of >$40 a plate restaurants.

You can get ceramic snail shells on a plate and buy snails in a can, here. Put the snail in the shell, mix the butter and garlic, add a bit of parcely and stuff on top of them in the shells and then bake for 60 min.. serve on French bread. Here's more info.

I can only imagine, but it must be similar to putting a dead mouse in your mouth.

The second time I gave it a shot was in a pre-packaged form on a breakfast buffet at the Hilton. It was milder, but still not for me.


I know that Southeast Asia considers Durian the "King of Fruits," but I found the odor and taste quite revolting. They can have it.

its not that bad, the smell stinks up the place but its good when it hits the tongue.

i'd say it taste great too, i mean you get your pieces of duck meat, along with rich egg yolk. only problem is that when you combine the two, and it being shaped like a effin underdeveloped bird, thats the gross part.

dogs are for the poor; well back in the days and probably is still now. the poor couldnt afford any other food that was around so they decided to eat dog because it was plenty.

anyone try tripe(part of a cow's stomach) with pho? that thing has a texture that makes pho more enjoyable.

There's a Lamborghini dealership over here and it sells a host of other exotics as well. Behind it there is a restaurant, so me and my girl pop in one night. On the menu is "Fresh Spyder".. I didn't notice it but my girl goes, "spider?!who would eat that"...I take a look at the price is $220,000. I was long whoa hold on, then I read a little further.. "If you buy this, dinner is on us". I look through the glass onto the dealership and there sits a Lamborghini (cant remember if it was a Murcie or Gallardo)Spyder. I said "baby id love me some spyder."

P.S. THEY WERE REFERRING TO THE CAR..LOL
