I have not eaten possum or armadillo.
I have eaten nutria, alligator, rattlesnake, Poule d' eau, gallinule, blackbird and other birds that I was not told what they were.

In Louisiana, you have heard people called Coonasses. This is not an insult as they call themselves this. I have heard from the locals that the reason that they call them that is that it is the only thing that they will not eat. You have to understand that the original Cajuns lived off of the land and they ate what was available. They did learn how to make what they ate taste very good.
