Me too. I looked into ordering Helix Snails to breed (farm) but you can't get them in most states because they are an agricultural threat. You can get cans of them raw for pretty cheap through mail order. I'm going to see if I can find them at Whole Foods or a specialty market around here. I could eat escargot and clams every day.

Itaewon. I went there once or twice when I was there too. It was just outside of Yongsan.

let me know if Whole Foods stocks them! I even have the little dishes that you cook them in.. (score at a Garage Sale) ! :D

Wild? Yes. Simply put I have eaten 5 LIVE grasshoppers first to see what they tasted like and then because my friend almost threw up :D Other than that I have had sushi and other various raw foods from buffets. I had haggus at the highland games last time I went too. Interesting taste. Good thing I didn't know what it was!!! :rockon:

WOW.....we got some eaters ;)

Pretty much any type seafood available.....a few different insects ...many types of venison and wild birds (even bbq'd an egret once...and a beaver too).....the normal reptiles and amphbians(frog, gator, and snake)... and the regular cajun snacks like boudin, etc.

.....no foods labeled 'odd or exotic' really throughs me off anymore....although I have tasted a few things that I will never try again ;)

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Liver and onions...while not actually "wild" aren't everyones' favorites. I grew up eating beef's but our neighbor always cooked the pork liver.Yuuuummmmm


My grandfather made head cheese all the time. Never did get up the nerve to try it, or his homemade sauerkraut. After the surprise with the calf fries, I was more cautious when he cooked. hee hee:rolleye2:
