Oh blech. Apparently applesnails don't taste good, anyways.

*shudders at the thought*

[wyofish]

They actually sell that commercially?? well yes, I suppose they would...just never thought about it before. I think I'll leave off eating my snailies anyway

[badflash]

Not that I have partaken, but only the foot is used and is supposed to taste as good as any other snail. It is the gut that tastes bitter. Canas can convert worthless vegatation to protien faster than chickens, and make a lot less noise. The shell is sold for hermit crab folks.
