Would you eat escargot?








Snails. They're snails.

No. I'd probably puke because I hate slimy things. Almost puked from eating a raw oyster once.

I would like to try them but the only place that I've been with them on the menu was not a place that I trusted to do them right. When I try them I want to know they're done right. I don't want to risk having my first taste tainted by poorly cooked snails.

Sounds disgusting, but it's not like you taste with your ears. Who knows what weird thing could become a new favorite? I'd be willing to give it a shot, though I'm in no particular rush.

Yeah my family always ordered them when out at fancier places. They were always very good and drenched in garlic butter which pretty much makes anything taste great.

Given I have ate other mollusks like squid, octopi (never again any animal able to show contempt is to smart to harm for no reason), oysters, mussels, and clams. Cutting the line at snails would be stupid just cookem first. I saw what that raw slug did to that 15 year old

They're really just an excuse to eat lots of garlic butter and cheese.

If you live anywhere near Northfield/Bernardston/Greenfield (western) Massachusetts there's a restaurant near the Northfield/Bernardston line that has the absolute best I've ever had anywhere in this country. I looked on google maps and I'm pretty sure it was Zeke's Bar & Grill at the Crumpin Fox Golf Course. This was 30 years ago so your mileage may vary. I've tried them at fancy restaurants in New York and Miami, and I think there was a place we stopped at in South Carolina, real swanky place, and they were awful. The rest of the stuff we got there was good to great, but I couldn't even choke the escargot down with a beer lol.

I make them myself but unlike every other seafood I cook I can't seem to get them as good as Zeke's. My whole family (and friends) raves about my seafood cooking (swordfish, shark, lobster, steamers, salmon, trout etc). If it comes out of water I get it right. But not escargot. Can't cook pork to save my life anymore, it all comes out tasting like petroleum lol.

If you aren't a big fish/seafood fan you probably won't like escargot.

Wat.

One more case for reading comprehension for seniors. You obviously don't know what escargot are do you lol. They can be both fresh or salt water snails as well as land snails, originally from France.

I have, and they were pretty tasty. Even that was just canned ones being cooked with garlic and butter on a camp stove by a bunch of young teens (my scout troop at the time participated in an outdoor cook-off sort of thing with an international theme, and we opted to make snails), so I would imagine they could be even better with higher-quality meat and more skilled preparation.

"I have, and they were just okay".

But it's been over 20 years. I might appreciate - or hate - them more now.
