Anything that has to be cleaned and skinned at a distance and then spiced beyond a reasonable facimile of what it would taste like if not cannot be considered a food of choice. And for a bite and a half?

And in Virginia? Ever heard of Virginia White tailed deer? Not exactly a dirt eatin, musky smellin little rat eh what? And, as far as frugal goes, a 36 cal ball? And then spend all that time diggin it out of a tree and meltin it down? A GRANNY climbin a tree to dig a 36 cal slug out?

Ye got some wild recipes, but ye got some wilder stories.

Shore ye ain't a Yankee'in my leg ya'all?

BTW... I use a broken hockey stick and bread crumbs. How much fer a brace?
