Snails - Crawling snails.
There are many kinds of snails. Some are edible and some are even poisonous. When I was a child, when it's rainy season, the rice paddies have water and the snails come out. We get them, they are edible, and we cook them and we eat them. Sometimes, we even eat them raw - those edible ones.

I confess I am very afraid of all insects and of snails!!!! I cannot imagine myslf eating such a thing...oh my God..it is disgusting the idea...but this is the fact..the idea is awful but I don't know how snakes would taste once they are well cooked....I mean..I ate very different kind of food while travelling because I like to taste local food and it might happen to me this... I could eat a snake without being informed during one of my journeys...but I hope not...anyway I do agree with the one who said that in some countries they are a very famous and loved food...world is big enough to have different food likes and dislikes..but please if you want me to come and have a bit with you, don't serve snakes to me...I don't like meat very much.I am very keen on vegetables!!!

Yeah, escargot are my favourite dish. Ze fact is I am zis Frenchman, you see. One mans meat is another mans poison. Obviously snails are your poison, but they are my meat. So no need to call them mal... It obviously takes all kinds to make this world, even non-snail eating kinds...
