Fancy a bit of squirrel?

So there I was driving to Bristol on the A38 when I pasted Taste. I decided to pop in and see what was available.

As well as all the nice fish and deli stuff on sale, the butcher’s counter was selling squirrel for £2.90 ($5.80).

Hmmm.

Decided it wasn’t for me.

It’s not  as though I am not willing to try new foods, I remember eating octopus in Venice once and alligator in an Old Orleans restaurant in York back in the early 1990s.

However squirrel did not appeal.

Probably because I think of squirrels as just rats with good PR and I don’t think I want to eat rat!
