River cafe autumn- hes cooking road kill...

<shrug>

Meat is meat is meat - and hey, it's free range and organic ?

in some countries they eat zebra don't they? ?

i honestly don't think i could eat a manky old pigeon that had been rummaging in the dumpsters outside burger king or something ?

It wasn't roadkill, he trapped it then clubbed it over the head.

i agree with Zeb, its probably had a nicer life than a lot of meat has.

KITC, sit down, this will come as a horrific shock, but some HITCHERS eat zebra, you know. Not that I'm looking at any tall, slim Hitchers from South Africa in particular here, oh no....

Another not bothered here, though we happily tolerate a pair of the grey demons here - it gives the cat some greatly needed exercise.

I'll eat anything tasty that's been a happy chappy.

?

And all this time I've blamed Hazel for that missing square of skin on my ar5e - I thought she'd turned me into slippers!

Oi LP!

you can do 1 out of a river cottage thread, you mocked my gathering and foraging ways mercilessly

Urg, gross. Its like eating a rat.

I'm afraid MrH has also eaten Zebra of late. They'll be nowt left of her shortly.

you're not HFW. LP luuuurves him

Sainsbuggers my arse!

it was waitrose I'll ave you know

Ooh, I love Hugh, I have a secret crush on him ?

I've never had squirrel but would certainly try it, why not? We toyed with the idea of buying a couple at a farmers market last week but went for a rabbit instead (something else I'd never tried), yum! Before programmes like this I probably wouldn't have tried it though. Saying that in the wake of the death of Roxy our pet bunny a couple of days ago I wouldn't dare attempt a repeat rabbit recipe, the kids might be very suspicious! ?

Have i mentioned the time i went to river cottage recently and conversed with HFW while husband was in production meeting for current TV series?

yes i have haven't i? i'll get my coat.

well it'll never happen again anyway, they've fenced it all off now

my foraging is all completely natural now, I was out today actually and have a nice bag of chestnuts to roast

Very unlikely since I haven't eated meat or fish for about 20 years ?

Yeah, but not skanky leftover maccy d's ones

I have some standards

You can go off someone very quickly I'll have you know. Mr S wasn't too impressed when I told him I'd rather go to Dorset next year for hols than back to Florida with the children (and I was serious), lol. What was he like, was he very lovely?

and maybe she eats the half used little tubs of ketchup too? they're veggie ?

?

I do like gherkins

I saw that, my stripey dinner friend. Someone pass the cranberry sauce...

I wouldn't eat a London squirrel (nor pigyon), but country ones are different.

from the floor. where someone has just dropped it out of their big mac ?

Yeah yeah yeah, laugh it up

but once the oil runs out, society breaks down, and you're all going hungry, I'll be the one who's laughing!

with my multitude of jars of bin-jam, shelves of pickled what-nots, and foraged fancies

foraged from where though? if noones buying anything, they wont be chucking it out either...

Any arse can make bread ?

And I'll 'ave you know that squirrel is right tasty.

Goes well with apples.
