But, is an armadillo a tactical possum, or is a possum an upholstered armadillo?

I've never had the chance to eat either, but I'd be willing to at least try them if cooked by someone who knew what they were doing. Likewise raccoon.

I have had the chance to try iguana stew in Bonaire (not bad), and snake soup in Taipei (I think it's some sort of gag they play on the tourists).

My 'friendly native guide' on the Taipei trip, Jonny Lao, told me there's an old Chinese saying that says "If the sun shines on it's back, you can eat it." I decided to never tie my shoes in daylight there.

I think I may have inadvertently had a few "tacos de calle de perro " back in the days I used to travel down Baja, too.
