[Number One]

Have tried both possum and rabbit and vastly different fwiw.may i add ive only tried possum once and under protest,rabbit on the other hand is very nice.

Monkey is quite nice too. Doubt you'll get that in Un Zud though...tried mine care of malaysian jungle. Tastes smoked.

We kinda didn't have a choice...army kids on a school 'jungle' camp in Malaysia when I lived in singapore - woulda been rude to not accept a piece but yeah - It was nice...so was the snake but the monkey was definitely the nicer of the two!

Often wondered if snake would taste similar to eel which i find very tasty.

I've never tried eel actually! Nor haggis, or tongue...have tried snails but other than that and black pudding and crocodile (on a pizza...one red dog) I haven't had anything else 'exotic'.

I recall a girlfriend talking about a restuarant somewhere in AKL that used to serve up sea cucumner - she said it was as foul as it looked.

Dunno, I haven'y had roo for some years but it reminded me of ostrich. Done gently it was quite nice, overcooked it was horrid. Actually, my only pleasant memory of Nunawading in Melbourne was a little restaurant near the hotel I always stayed at which did a nice roo salad... can't remember the name of the place, probably gone by now.

Besides, wot's wrong with mutton, eh? Good tasty winter food, that.

Brian Goorjian played for the Nunawading Spectres in the NBL and he has gone on to become the best coach in any code in the History of all Australian sports.

Sylvester the cat and Jnr were quite correct - if inept. Large rodents

What's it taste like? Texture?

Eel is bloody nice, either fresh, smoked, or made in to pate. Silver belly ones are better from clean running water e.g rivers)

Buy eel at most Japanese restaurants and food stalls. Its called Unagi Don. Very tasty, but a bit on the expensive side (you don't get much meat).
