My mother and brother were talking about how delicious frog legs were earlier, making me really curious. I've never tasted them before, but the thought of eating a frog kind of disgusts me. Since they are a delicacy in France, do you think you would try them given the chance?

What do you guys think of them? n_n

Here are some pictures!






(Raw frog legs)

At first I saw the raw picture and thoguht no way I would eat them.

Then I saw the cooked picture and it looks like chicken.. mellow.gif

I don't think I would ever eat it though

It's true. It's not as hard or dry.

by accident...it tastes a bit like chicken but sweeter and the meat is a lot more tender

my aunt didn't tell me what I was eating until I finished it lol
mai_anne

If I had eaten frog legs since I was a kid, I would've been able to eat them today without hesitation, just like I don't hesitate to eat chicken. A common food to a person is a common food to a person.

Anyway, looking at those pics, I can't eat them. It's the thought of these being frog legs and not being used to eating frogs at all that give me foreign resistance. The same thing can be said about insects. I can't eat them, because the thought of putting something that's not used to going into the mouth and chewing seems well, unnatural, despite good flavour. That's just me.
cannotfindserver
i find that gross. nope i'll never eat it unless i get tricked.
xAsianx
o.o It's actually not bad, it tastes like chicken. but there's a little more fuller taste.


tongue.gif Bleh, and I got tricked too. Mom told me it was Chicken, she told be after I ate it, that it was frog
L.Li-style
yes.

I thought eating esgargo was gross at first. It turned out to be delicious and now I love it.
mOmoITSUMO
ONLY IF theyre cooked properly =]
yummy... i kinda want some now
TimmyYayo
yeah i'll eat it just don't tell me what it is until i'm done lol.
predator
I would eat them.
But then you showed that picture of the raw frog legs. mellow.gif
No thanks, I'll pass.
V ! C K 1 3 _
i ate it with my grandma when i was little

x T H U Y
NEVERRRRRRRRRR!
Just the thought makes me want to barf.
My parents keep telling me to eat it.
They're like, "It tastes better than chicken!"

No....Never......Ever......YUCK!!!!

I've had them before! They taste like chicken but a little saltier. laugh.gif
matango88
heck yeah! I would eat frogs !

I was taught how to hunt frogs with a spear and flash light when I was little, I also know how to skin them and clean the guts out prepare them for cooking.

I even used the frogs skins and stretched it over an old coffee can and made a frog skin drum , my dad taught me how to make it.

I like to eat frogs several different ways:

*fried

*cooked with black bean sauce and bitter melons

*steamed over the rice in a clay pot with mushrooms $ chinese sausage

FROGS are DELICIOUS! one of my favorite foods

My [American] uncle said they jump when you fry cook them. rolleyes.gif
I would never eat frog legs!
That's just.. weird.
onhotwires
I love the fried ones, tastes just like chicken.

I don't know what about eating a frog is disgusting compared to eating some squid or cow even. So they're amphibious and slimy... Can anyone explain this to me?
