    Default Have you ever eaten Escargot (snails)?

    I know they're a delicacy in France and a few Med Islands, but I just saw one on my porch and... ugh.
    I don't get how you can eat that. Does it taste fantastic or something?

    No but I'd try them at a reputable restaurant.
    Nine out of ten concerns are completely unfounded.

    Yes, when I was in France. They taste like chicken.

    We eat snails in Portugal and it is a quite popular summer snack but they look nothing like the French version.

    We eat snails in Sardinia, usually cooked with tomato sauce, garlic, parsley and chili peppers. They are tasty, It's like eating shellfish. I eat them occasionally. In Italy they usually don't eat them, except few specific areas.



    To eat them you just need an ultra-technological tool :
