I do not represent the stereotypical Italian in many things .. XD I'm a little english, a little japanese, a little french etc... XD

I don't eat frog legs neither. :o

I tried escargot and frogs legs once, to see what they were like....
I didnt like them. Frogs legs actually tasted like chickenfish. Yeah, I know theres no such word, but thats the only thing I can say that describes them.
The snails tasted like salty rubber. Didnt care for them at all.

Also tried some octopus, which had no taste at all.

So much for my European gourmet palate.

I think you haven't tasted good snails. It's very good when it's well cooked, with the garlic and persil butter that is called litterally "snail butter".

You can dress a snail up but its still a snail, the texture puts me off, i imagine its like chewing a bit of rubber, though you can pour that "snail butter" down my throat, garlic sends me gaga, im a terror with garlic bread, if were sharing a baguette, I will eat the whole thing by the time you've had one slice

Well ok. It might be the equivalent of your jellybean, you have to be French to like it.
