frog legs

[Dave W]

Sorry, just had to post this.

Is there any food more appealing than frog legs?   



Is this gross, or what?

WTH!?!?!   

That clip just needs some theme music to finish it off.  It somehow reminded me of the dancing robotic legs here:

when he flips 'em, they look like little mermaid butts I guess I would be dancin' around somewhat if some wag sprinkled salt on my butt. yikes.

I knew this would be popular with vegetarians!

What's the best way to eat frog legs?

One leg over this ear and the other leg over that ear.

Hahaha, there was a time when I was in college that Madonna actually looked good. Back in the '80s...

[leftybass]

I dont recall her EVER looking good.

[Dave W]

Me neither.

Now I wonder if anyone has sprinkled salt... no, I won't go there.

Dave!!! Rinse your tongue with soap!

I've eaten frog legs. Back in the seventies a lot of French restaurants in Zaire still offered it. Not yucky, but nothing to write home about. Similar to reptile meat, it doesn't taste like much at all, sort of in the shrimp taste vein and feeling like chicken meat. Take away the salt, garlic and other spice and it tastes like nothing at all. I wouldn't eat it today anymore for ecological reasons - most of the frog legs come or at least came from Indian and Bangladesh rice fields where the frogs are really needed for other stuff than the sacrifice of their legs. Flash question to all those Aussies among us: Tha immigrant pest, the aga toad, is that edible? I know the poisonous glands create issues for indigenous animals eating them whole, but what about the legs? (Reminds me f that hungry orc in Lord of the Rings who was hungry for hobbit meat and wanted to eat two captured ones, adding helpfully: "just the legs, they won't need them anymore ...". Of course he met an unfortunate fate himself ...

Only pussies eat just the legs.  Why not eat the entire frog?  Here's a photo from our neighbour's BBQ when we were living in Indonesia ...
