[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4109827, member: 15054"] I have had dog, bob cat, Coyote, Peacock, Raw deer meat. Raw carp, muscles from a pond, grass hoppers raw alive and june bugs alive and scorpion alive and alive minnows and gold fish of course. Sparrows , crackles, wood pecker, water turkey. Alligator snapper, regular snapper, red ear slider, soft shell turtle.. soft shell is the best. Those are the odd things I have eaten Raw trout eye..HORRIBLE!! Then my dad said you got to ice them down boy. I was in 3rd grade so I got a handful of ice and put the next eye I cut out of the trout head in it and chilled it. Bit into that one after I popped it into my mouth. They taste just like stomach acid (throw up) but I swallowed both of them after chewing them up because they are supposed to be good for you. After I ate the second one and said it tastes just the same as the first, my dad said: You ain't too bright are ya boy. See what I had to deal with. Dad left me at a family pond on land way out nowhere and went to town about 4 pm and did not get back until about noon the next day. I was 14 and no food but left me a junky 357 that pulled tons of lead each time you shot it. Cotton mouth snakes were thick in that pond and one pestering one kept swimming to me and up onto the shore and towards me in a chair. I could not hit it for squat. Finally trapped it under a bucket and found a Y shaped stick and pinned his head and cut it off. I kept a fire going all night as there was just me a chair and tackle box and pole and pistol. I had a knife and matches and kept a fire going all night for light. I did not sleep and I got so hungry and decided to cook that snake after I killed it. Had it cooking pretty well and almost done. It was around noon and I seen my dad and his cronies and he seen my snake cooking and asked what I was doing and I told him I am about to eat it because I am starving. He got a stick and scooped it from the fire and tossed it into the pond. Said boy you don't eat cotton mouths they are "poisonous". I said rattle snakes are too and people eat them. He said you just don't eat cotton mouths. Effin dinty moore beef stew from a can once again. Snake cooked on coals would have been better. :) I have never in my life paid for a can of beef stew.
