We don't get raccoons over here. But eating squirrel is getting more popular (link below not for the feint hearted)

That poor squirrel...

(As a general rule, I don't like racoons, though I pity that poor animal as well...)

No idea why I usually have no objection eating pork or chicken, though...

If the animal lived happily then I'll eat it; sooner a squirrel that had a good life in the wild or a rabbit that lived in a field than anything out of a factory farm. Squirrel tastes great, and grey squirrels are such a pest in some forestry plantations in the UK that they're shot in huge numbers. Mostly they're just thrown away, which I rekon is a shame.

So, how do they taste? :smt001

I think I'll call the animalists! How can people eat these poor animals? [smilie=pdt_aliboronz_22.gif] :idiot2:

Well, I've heard squirrel pie is good too.

But alas, I think I'll forgo this weird "food" and stick to good vittles like . . . lobster, oysters, snails, shrimp, gator, crawdads, octopus, squid, mussels, dolphin, shark fin soup, etc.! Now that's excellent cuisine - seriously!!
