View Full Version : Gator: It's what's for dinner.

I've got a few free minutes to kill, so I thought I'd hop on the forums and make a thread for the first time in a while.
A couple weeks ago, I went with my girlfriend's family to a small restaurant off the beaten path of I-80 in Utica, IL called The Cajun Connection. Among the specialties served there was something called Gator Bites. Yeah, gator.
I was reluctant to try some, but I didn't have much choice after my girlfriend's stepdad ordered some for me. As it turned out, it wasn't so bad after all. It tasted something like a mix of chicken and calamari. More like chicken, though, since all meats taste like chicken to some degree.
So first, if you're in that area, I highly recommend you check that place out. Second, it begs the question of whether anyone has tried munchin' on a little something like gator. Rabbit, maybe? Deer? Duck, perhaps?
What would you consider your most favorite (provided you have one) alternative meat?

My favorite meats are eel, octopus, pork, beef, and buffalo. I'm not a big fan of chicken, and I don't really like rabbit. I've tried a lot of fish, most of which I like. I haven't tried many other meats than those.

Have you ever had ostrich meat? They serve it at a restraunt near my home called "Rattlesnake Ranch" Along with chicken, gator, duck, and steak.

I don't eat meat or seafood but I do eat a kind of substitute. It is called 'not bacon'(seriously!) and it is soy rashers but it is shaped like bacon and as far as I can tell it tastes like bacon(haven't had bacon since I was little). But I guess 'not bacon' doesn't really count as meat.....

A request: People, please don't eat squids or iguanas...I am a squid and an iguana. I'm a squiguana!!!

As long as it's not ground meat, i.e. hotdogs *shudders*, I love it.
