Delicious low cal high protein soup!

Well if you don't like the idea of Bat Soup, how about some nice Scorpion Soup instead.

I don't really like creamy broths...do you have suggestions for anything a little more clear?

Well how about some Co*kroach Noodle Soup in that case?

That actually looks yummy...nice presentation too!

Do I HAVE to use Ginger? :sick:

I am very rapidly losing faith in this site. Posts like this make me questions its credibility.

I think I'm with you on that point. I think this one is probably scraping on the bottom of the barrel. There are just somethings that you can't UNsee. I really thought this forum had potential, but THIS thread has blown my theory all to hell!

Considering other threads that offer positve reinforcement have been locked or removed because they offer prayers and spiritual condolences .. when THIS thread is allowed to stay, just makes me cringe in wonderment.

I would like the rattlesnake chili recipe if you don't mind. We have some very large rattlesnakes here in South Texas, and I think I can make several meals out of them.

I hit a squirrel on the way home... anyone got any ideas?

OMG! It's gluten free! I have to try this, I bet this would even be good for crockpotting!

Was it a fox squirrel? Those are really tough and gamey, and should definitely be boiled until tender before frying or baking.

Yes! It is ideal for crockpottery.

This thread adheres to the terms and conditions of the site. Religious posts do not. You may see Christian prayer as positive but not everyone does, and people tend to get quite passionate where religion is involved. Those threads always end up with someone getting their feelings hurt. This is just wholesome good fun and recipe sharing.

That looks wonderful! Do you know the calorie count?

Roughly 280 calories/serving.

Is that with the bones? I know in some places they eat the bones and everything. I want to make sure I eat everything I'm counting.

Christian prayers ARE positive reinforcement between Christians. If someone who is offended by just the mention of faith or comments related to faith or religion, and becomes argumentative .. then, yes, there is a potential problem, and I can easily understand why our administrator has created a catchall type of rule to prevent troublesome threads.

By the same standards then .. If simply looking at a conversation between two people that just mentions something pertaining to religion is offensive, then looking at soup made from dogs is equitably offensive to those who are animal lovers. I think we are all well aware how domestic animals are treated here and abroad. Knowing the unspeakable cruelty involved, I personally find some of these posts extremely offensive.

I just find it increasingly disturbing that people find this funny. Perhaps, I may be a minority in thinking that cruelty to domestic animals is not a laughing matter...in this country AND around the world. But that 's just me. Now that I have seen what THIS thread has to offer, I will entertain myself elsewhere.

I can't tell if this is a joke...

I was thinking the same thing, but there is a picture of it. I didn't even know people eat bats!!! :O

Do you eat meat? How do we decide which animals are edible and which ones are not?

Who are you to judge what other people eat? Why don't you put yourself in their shoes and tell me that you won't eat dog, or horse or cat. People all over the world eat what's available to them to survive.

Although I cannot say that I am not at all surprised by your judgemental response.

I am not judging what people eat out of necessity .. I am appalled at how this forum openly finds it humorous.

Sure, I eat meat .. but I do not find anything humorous about how animals (that are born and raised for food) are treated or slaughtered. By the sounds of it, I'm thinkn I must be the only one here that doesn't find it funny. But, that's just me.

Do I need to test the bats for Rabies prior to putting them in the pot?

Some folks are enjoying grossing each other out with bat recipes, etc. over this Halloween weekend. Let's avoid the thread turning into arguments.

this was initially posted in the diet and nutrition section. do you have any idea how disappointed I am??
I demand an apology and a vegetarian option

I demand ... a vegetarian option

Should really up the fiber content

When I typed "batting" into the exercise search it listed cricket. Will the calories burned be the same whether we're trying to catch crickets or bats?

Batting is more upward stretching and reaching, whereas cricketing involves bending over and reaching and chasing. I suspect that cricketing would be a higher burn.

Would any experts on both like to weigh in on this? I don't want to give inaccurate information.

Crickets are jumpy, but bats are feisty fliers. It's a tough call, better wear an HRM.

That's usually the best way anyway. I was surprised that the MFP exercise database would list them together. They do seem to be very different exercises.
