Would you eat it?
He rolls into the parking lot of Leon's Thriftway in an old, maroon Impala with a trunk full of frozen meat. Raccoon — the other dark meat...

Although I've never had raccoon, I wouldn't have a problem eating it. Squirrel is tasty, as long as you don't think about the fact that it is just a rat with good PR and a bushy tail.

I have ordered alligator at restaurants a few times and it always grosses out the others atn my table. I just don't get it. Meat is meat. I'm also a big fan of Buffalo.
Heck yeah... I ain't skeered!

If it's a clean and healthy animal then there's no big deal in eating it. Same goes for rat, cat, dog, possum, nutria, and others, although I don't think I could eat dog.

Lightness? What's that? I drive a PRHT!
Okay, ya'll are on. I came face to face with one as big as my truck tire the other day, found him sleeping in the tack room part of one of our barns. If he's still there next time, I'll cook him up for the next gtg and leave one paw on so channelmaniac won't have to worry about eating any stray dogs.
OK... The article made the preparation sound like a big hassle. Have fun.
What restaurant do you go to get squirrel etc?
Heckler and Koch
I don't know about squirrel and other vermin, but YO Ranch has a lot of different meats available that you won't find at the Albertson's meat counter. I know I have had a buffalo steak as well as alligator fajitas there, and I recall seeing duck, pheasant, venison, etc on the menu.
sounds kind of yummy........ most "different" things taste good.....
You produce the paw, I'll bring the cold beer...Okay, ya'll are on. I came face to face with one as big as my truck tire the other day, found him sleeping in the tack room part of one of our barns.

Don't you carry a tire iron around with you out there in the country?

I've trapped 3 squirrels in the attic over the last 2 weeks but I humanely disposed of them. I'm kicking myself now; could've cooked them up.
Be careful out there Andy.Okay, ya'll are on. I came face to face with one as big as my truck tire the other day, found him sleeping in the tack room part of one of our barns.

Squirrels are cooking themselves up here. We have had problems with them blowing up transformers. One loud boom, then the power goes down. 3 so far.

I have had it, as well as most of the others mentioned. (No Dog or Cat...that I know of)
Growing up in Louisiana, you never ask what is served, until after supper.
I often had Deer, Squirrel, Rabbit, Possum, Nutria rat, Frog, Turtle, Alligator, Duck, Wild Turkey, Boar hog, Rattlesnake and lots I am forgetting.
In La. you learn to eat all kinds of good stuff.
Waaay back in the 70s, I had a neighbor who hunted squirrels that dared enter his yard. He went so far as to clean & hang the skins in the living room.
My mom claims to've eaten dog while in Vietnam...also in the early 70s. Apparently it has a rather interesting (and, to her, unsavory) texture. She'd definitely agree with Rogue, since she grew up in a little delta town called Golden Meadow.
Of the few things I've tried that didn't come from the local meat counter, the 'gator, rabbit & shark were the best. Snake was...so-so. Wish I could recall what kind it was.
When it comes to Raccoon, I'll just have to take the zero, guys.

Back around 1990, I used to frequent a place in Waco that, rumor had it, was supposedly shut down for serving dog. Best burritos I ever ate.
I also lived in Lake Chuck, LA/Orange, TX in the late 1990's. I only ate what I could tell what it was. Alligator didn't taste that bad, but I wouldn't pay extra for it. Some of the best catfish I ever ate was at Pat's of Henderson in Lake Charles.
