Crocodile: suppliers?

[Nick]

Africa Week at school (exchange of teachers).Food Day today. The Boy tried crocodile and pronounces it to be "yumster" (or somesuch).

I assume you can buy it here.......................

I tried the "Make it SNappy" joke but got a groan 

Spose I could get down the petshop and grow my own. What could possibly go wrong?

Will see what Nigella has to say on t he subject of crocodile 

[Pastis]

I'd be interested to know how many said it tasted like chicken.  That's the usual consensus. Much like Iguana.

[Nick]

Cannibals claim that people taste like chicken.

In which case chicken tastes like, um, people

There is a farm just on the outskirts of Bodfari (about three or four miles from here) that sells "rare breeds" meat including Ostrich, Crocodile, Wild Boar, Venison, and others.  So no need to internet, just visit your old chum Snoopy and I'll take you down there. Before you get carried away the meats are frozen so you are not going to see the animals. (They do not seem to have a website but are mentioned in other guides) Also there is a guy near Holywell who has a herd of Water Buffalo ..... which is the only form of beef that has never been affected by Mad Cow Disease (or so he tells me) He also sells the meat and cheese.
So if your tastes are for the exotic Snoopy knows the where and how.

Good plan.

Where do they stand on tofu?

[Snoopy]

Prolly a big no-no ~ like most sensible people.

I guess wild boar is nice.

Do you cook it in cider?

[Snoopy]

Wild boar is very nice if you like strongly flavoured meat. Personally (and ignoring the obvious) I prefer it roasted.



I have been known, in the past, to spit roast it

On your own? 



BTW, "Bodfari" 

Do they have strabismic lion steaks as well?

[Snoopy]

No and it is pronounced BODVARY with the stress on the Y.

And no not on my own but that was in another life 

[Nick]

Is that like Dr Strabismus (late of Utrecht)?

Presumably Mrs S #2 has never had a boar in cider

But then he isn't a Welsh farmer 

[TG]

I thought people tasted like pork. Hence the canibal expression 'Long pig'. 

Mind you WTF do I know?

I think DS was referring to a popular TV show, from years long past, featuring,among others, "Clarence" the Cross Eyed Lion and not an invention of J.B.Morton (Beachcomber)
However Bodfari is a far cry from Daktari
