Eat a snail

good!

I had them for the first time when I was really little (3 I think), and i’ve liked them ever since.

I was at a conference, hungry as a wolf by the time the lunch was finally served, and I took a piece of everything that was on the table because I had no idea when we’d eat again. I took a piece of something with small black gnarled things that looked to me like mushrooms, covered with prosciutto and grated cheese. The black things had an unusual taste, like a very aromatic mushroom. Afterwards, I learned those were snails.

So, the verdict: not bad, but if I had known what it was, I wouldn’t have eaten it.

I tried frog legs and many types of disgusting-looking sea food but I can’t force myself to try snails… Are they good?
