    Good for you. I'm from Latin America and we eat tongue frequently. Your cooking technique sounds really good.

    I've only had tongue once, in Morocco. I did feel like I was french kissing a cow because of the texture.

    Ha Ha, I can certainly understand that, looking at the picture. If it was diced up or something where it didn't actually still look like a tongue, then maybe I would try it. And being from East Texas, I have eaten many things you wouldn't normally eat.
    I'd also be afraid I might bite my OWN tongue by mistake! Ouch!

    Lol haven't tried those yet but I will basically try anything.


    Coming up next, I'll be harvesting, gutting, and cooking some snails.

    How big are those things? Why are there so many......

    A bulll's tongue is about as big as your forearm. I sliced it up and put the tip of it in the middle. My attempt at presentation. I call it "just the tip" when you have that tip in a sandwich.

    I love beef tongue. It's especially good as a roast beef sandwich with a little bit of horseradish mayo! Your presentation looks yummy!

    I have had it once in a fancy restaurant. I'm so picky but I did try it. It isn't awful. In no way would I eat it looking like an actual tongue. Props to you for trying something new!

    You lost me at harvesting. Please explain how you are going to be harvesting those snails. I enjoy survival food. Maybe not this one....

    I will eat almost anything. I got chubby because I didn't know how to limit what gets put in my mouth....

    I spotted them when I was out hunting for morels. No mushrooms, but tons of snails. Going back with a mesh bag.

    They look like burgundy snails which are very tasty. I don't really forage survival food, just gourmet wild stuff. Right now nettles and wood sorrel are out.


    I am usually in North America but right now I'm in Germany. Spring has been coming on slooooow.
