What's for lunch: Roasted Sea turtle

[Nobar King]

This is the first of a new series of What's for lunch posts. My new favorite dish is Roasted sea turtle sandwich on foccacia with arugula, kelp, and garlic aioli.

They're going to be serving them daily from the port of New Orleans for the next seven months.

Sounds delicious. I think I could just gobble one down on the half-shell. Have you ever had a manatee burger? They're easy to hunt because they just get caught in the boat motor.

Instead of arguing semantics with me why don't you try one. Then you'll understand.

You want to embrace them? And you call me disgusting.

Why do you think God made animals out of delicious meat? He wants us to eat them.

I may have to swing down to that hell hole New Orleans and get me some cajun sea turtle, it does sound tasty.

If you guys come down here you should try Koala a true delicacy from the Australian bush. We call the meat "Tree Pork"

These furry menaces taste delicious, especially Koala ribs, smoked then served with a spicy hickory sauce they can't be beat.

Are they good fried alive?

Well I've had black bear and grizzly, if you get a young one that DOESN'T hang around the dump, it does taste like pork. So I guess Australian bears would taste the same.

Then again Garbage bears are absolutely horrible tasting (you are what you eat?) so do Koalas taste like menthol?

Brother King -
Sadly frying them alive tends to distress Koala's somewhat and consequentially makes the meat go stringy -

Slow cooking only and with continual basting is recommended

Sometimes they get a eucalypt taste but thankfully this is an excellent and complimentrary condiment to the hickory sauce
