Why don't Americans eat snail?

[phcitywarrior]

Snail is GOAT.

Goat meat is GOAT.

Food from the Naija .

When you get stewed pomo and snail at the same time

 

[RadaMillz]

Not all Africans eat that disgusting ish snails?



But than again I go in on goat meat from time to time, probably where I draw the line

 

[Tribaligenesis]

Goat meat .


Also range of cuisine available to you Americans is something else. But then I look at your palates

lol is the reason why yall aint interested in this because its an african dish? had it been from some where in Europe or asia, bet u confused imbeciles woulda been on some "aaaah that sh1t loooks really good" cant wait to go to france, japan, blah blah

Reverse c00ning

 

[Monsanto]

That is why you cook it to kill the any parasite. Clams, oyster and snail are from the same family anyway.

This is why I don't eat it, the oyster family and 99% of seafood I don't eat.

Not to sound like one of those folks that say, "I'm not racist cuz I hate everybody", but that didn't look good regardless of what country it originated.

Never had it, but had calimari before and I love sushi...

 

[Ricky Dunigan]

Had escargot... it just tasted like the garlic sauce. Didnt seem like a protein with much taste TBH.

Someone mentioned goat? I been fiending for some curry goat. That and cow foot soup are the only Caribean dishes moms picked up since living in NYC. Very underrated meat.

Americans arent too adventurous with their stomachs. Just like most people in world to some degree like I lived in America for 24 years before i ever dared to taste "meat loaf". But american gastronomy tend to be on the safe side with eveything they dont know. But they abuse the fukk out of the things they are used to because they are safe to them.

Things that always baffled me that the common american doesnt eat

1. Conch
   
2. Goat meat
3. Yams
4. Malangas

Hell it's only in the last 20-25 years that they started eating avocados. Their plantains craze is still in it's infancy and they only like the sweet shyts anyway

BUt i must give them props for the way they perfected potatoes, tho. Growing up i rarely ate popatoes and when it did it was either boiled or fried potatoe slices. American cook potatoes in so many different ways it always amazes me. French fries, Potatoe salad, Mashed potatoes, boiled and seasoned potatoes, hash browns and the list goes on and on. To someone who grew up in America there is nothing amazing about this but to me it's like

Conch is big in the low country.

 

[BigMan]

Why would you eat snails

 

[intruder]

Conch is big in the low country.

Really?

Most americans i know that even know what conch is and eat it are from the Keys.
Edit: What is "the low country" by the way? Is that Louisiana?
