ever experience eating snake?

I like to try everything on the menu, I've not found snake yet, but rest assured I would eat it if it was there. I have had eel, that's the closest I can get - it was smoked so it didn't taste like chicken (though I actually have never tasted smoked chicken as far as I remember...). I have eaten wood pigeon, wild boar, emu and ostrich. I saw 'frogfish' on a menu in Portugal once, so I ordered it! - turned out to be monkfish!! Portugal has fantastic food, the regional dish of the Alentejo (excuse spelling) district (I think) is pork and mussels - bit of a different angle on the surf 'n turf idea... It was absolutely georgeous, though to be fair it sounds like it should be appalling!

blheck! :) lolol no i honestly, don't wanna try it ;)

no i have never ate snake and i wouldnt like to try it. more than likely it would taste horrible. YUCK

I get totally freaked out by snakes. Just the thought of them amkes me shiver so I don't think I'd ever try eating one. I'm a really big baby when it comes to things like this. If somebody tells me to "try something" I ask what it is and won't eat it unless I know what it is.LOL!

OK I am curious, I have not ever eaten snake, but the old joke is "tastes like chicken" so I suppose my questin is Do you not like chicken, or is it that snake does NOT taste like chicken?

Once, quite long time ago. I don't even remember what it taste like ??? I heard some people even eat crocodile, bats, grubs, grasshoper, etc. Alternative ????

No, I never have and I don't think I could, unless I was starving in the middle of the desert and had no choice! Even then, I might just choose to starve!

Tastes nice actually. I was in the boy scouts a while back and we ate all sorts of things. Snake was by far the best tasting of them all. And yes... it does taste a bit like chicken. You should try some crocodile too... also nice.

I've never eaten snake and have no plans to do so in the future! I probably could make myself eat it if I were starving, as long as I wasn't the one who had to kill it and prepare it. I've eaten octopus, though. Is it similar in taste?

Nope! But I heard they taste like chicken.

Oh yes! I have experienced eating a snake already. But at first, I never knew it was a snake at all because it just tastes like chicken. Then, I was wondering then that if it was a chicken, why does it have so many little bones? Well, i didn't mind it at first so i continued eating. After dinner, I told my Dad that was a very nice chicken. But he laughed all the way down! He was not expecting that I didn't know it was actually a snake! Oh my! I hurriedly went to the washroom after he had said that. I tried to brush my teeth and my mouth. lol That was crazy! But yeah, i enjoyed eating it. And now, I'm even laughing remembering it. I think the next time people will serve me a snake food, i think i'm gonna accept it now. It just tastes like chicken.:)

Snake is the creature I fear most and dislike most. I never have the experience to eat snake and I think I will never dare to eat snake.

Snake soup is quite popular here in Hong Kong especially during the winter... but no, I haven't tried it... and I don't plan to :P

Perhaps with a baked potato and some asparagus and some garlic French bread. Or maybe with some rice pilaf and some zucchini and a roll. Chicken is ok, we eat it a lot because its cheaper than steak but oh boy, I love a good steak!

I have tried some a long time ago when I was younger my dad and a friend of his had it. I didnt care to much for it, it is just one of those taste you know. it is like eating turtle you just got to have a taste for it.

I want to taste it,but here in Italy no one restaurant or shop sells it.MAybe when I'll go in china or in places where people est it,I want to try to eat it too.

Never ate snake before. And if I could I would probably taste it. Its nice to have some nice experience and stories to talk to friends about.

yes i do. it tastes like chicken thou.. it was fun and first time to eat it.. hope you like it too.
