Rattle Snake

I looked at the pic of the WD Rattler in another post, and was reminded of a treat we would have in Arizona. My question is about eating rattlesnake. I sincerely hope no one is offended by this.

That first choice is meant to read: Yes, and I liked it.

Nope and never will. I will keep my yap shut at that :bye:

Fixed it for ya! ;)

And nope I don't think I would try it, but that's just me. I might, but I don't know. :imslow:

Depends on what type of rattlesnake it is :) Noone should ever take an animal if it is in low population in the area...and I never kill anything that I don't plan on eating...that is one of the rules of the jungle :D I have eatten alligator and frog a bunch of times...i prefer alligator over frog though...just never had the opportunity to eat rattlesnake (or turtle soup, although it is commonly eatten by my fellow swamp people)....and I would have no idea of how to cook rattlesnake if I wanted to try.....but given the opportunity, I would give it a try.

My family grew up in the country, so we ate a lot of what we trapped or killed when I was growing up. I was rasied to hunt and fish, but I would never kill something I won't eat. Just for the record I don't hunt or kill any snakes, never have. I just eat it at restaurants and family gatherings.

I have had it deep fried and in soups. I have a great aunt that when ever I go to her house I eat what is put in front of me, but I never ask what it is until I am finished eating it. You don't want to know you're eating a coon/possum/squirrel/rabbit meat loaf until you're done with it. Trust me!

That is just sick rattlesnakes are the coolest how can u eat SNAKES!!!!

Sure I'd try it. I like trying exotic meats. I have had alligator, and it was tasty.

Honestly, if you eat any meat, how can you condemn a certain type? Now, granted, I'd never eat dog, but that's because I don't find it to be appetizing, I don't think people that DO eat dog are evil either.. except if they steal someone's pet to eat of course! ;)

I love snakes and all but given the oppurtunity and if it is not endangered i would eat just about any snake except a ball python of course........

i would never eat rattlesnake, even if i had the oppurtunity. its not like eating beef, some species of rattlesnake are endangered and i dont think its right to go out and catch wild snakes to eat them. if someone was breeding them for that perpose and not effecting the population in the wild i would have no problem with it.
