I enjoy escargots more than mopanis, but even those just taste a lot like however you cook them.
 
I have no idea but currently, I draw line at any non-veg. Your line could be at dog/bat/cockroaches/human meat.

Different people, different circumstances, different choices. :cool:
of course, to each their own, was just being supportive as I saw your statement of it being "too late" as a cry for help ;)

Talking about that - This thread will be the end of my vegetarian choice. One day. Of course, not the first post - obviously.

pretty much, neither has any of its own flavour, you can have squishy (escargot) garlic butter flavour or crunchy spicy flavour (mopani)

but you're tasting the sauce/spices added with no other discernible flavour, the snail/worm is just texture, might as well put the sauce on some toast

all IMO of course

That first post should be deleted and scrubbed off every memory bank on earth!

For me, I had a Mopani experience YEARS ago. Battered and deep fried. I tried one, and the cold snotty oil juice from the deep fried worm squirted right down my throat, and triggered a gag reflex. Since then, no thanks.
 
Wife is a vegetarian so by extension so am I 99% of the time. Her food is great, I assume due to the fact she puts a lot effort into meals. In contrast any old culinary fool can cook a steak and boil potatoes, like myself..

That said I insist on a steak every few months when my mood strikes.

ima go ahead and assume you're straight if having a worm and its juice down your throat triggers a gag reflex
