I've had rattlesnake quite a few times. Tastes like chicken or frog legs and I kid you not.

I had rattlesnake in Phoenix once. Good with a spicy mustard dipping sauce.

A spicy sauce and cooked over a wood fire is the only way I want my snake. Raw is the worst way to have it but hey I guy has got to eat. You can get ill if the snake is not cooked all the way through.

"That's exactly my point. Exactly. Because you have to wonder: how do the machines know what Tasty Wheat tasted like? Maybe they got it wrong. Maybe what I think Tasty Wheat tasted like actually tasted like oatmeal, or tuna fish. That makes you wonder about a lot of things. You take chicken, for example: maybe they couldn't figure out what to make chicken taste like, which is why chicken tastes like everything."

Interesting title. Other than that, I usually like trying "exotic" foods.

That's all you, Bobby. If it doesn't Moo, oink, or bwak I don't want it.:D

I would be all for trying it. I love to try any food once.

I actually had snake one time, one of the cooks brought some in from PF Changs. Forgot what kind it was but yeah not bad, a little too crunchy for my tastes but the meat was good. Not sure if he brought it in to work and cooked it or PF Changs actually has that on the menu. Either way it was interesting to try it once, I wouldn't pay for it though. Especially at $30 a pound.

I have not had rattlesnake, but I ate cobra when I was in Indonesia, freshly killed,, skinned and gutted, grilled over some coals and eaten with a spicy sauce. I liked it, althought I preferred the gekko.

When we were kids, we hunted rattlesnakes all the time. Hunted might be a little strong. Someone would say "There's a @$@#!$@ rattlesnake on my porch!!!!" and I'd go drop a cement block on it (or whatever other handy device I had). We whacked a lot of them while we were fishing, too. They liked to sun where we liked to fish.
I always got the task of skinning them because everyone was afraid they'd get poisoned to death. My brother and I would tack them out, dry them and make hatbands and stuff out of them.
The old man always told us they were good eatin', but I was just barely comfortable enough to skin them. I wasn't gonna eat them. I still never have, even though I know it's irrational.

I had rattlesnake a few times a long time ago. I remember it tasting like greasy chicken. Now after having pet snakes I'm not sure I could eat it. I'd rather eat cute animals.
