Coon tastes a lot like very greasy roast beef. It is not really to my liking but it would keep a man from starving. I don't care for squirrel either, but I have eaten it and would again if necessary. So far I have not eaten opossum or armadillo, and unless this economy gets a lot worse I never will. My taste run to deer, beef, chicken, rabbit, and pork. Quail and dove are pretty good also.
