Local cuisine!

Its quite satisfying.....It has been a staple of high plains eats for centuries, from Taos up to Banff and everywhere in between...Here they use it as the basis for "Indian Tacos", and it beats the hell out of a corn tortilla
 
I love that people are eager to show their regional dishes!

They all look really tasty!

Would love to try them out some day.

Just as I would love to try this dish,

 Raclette

Which originates from the Swiss, a giant cheese wheel gets softened under a grill type light till and the scraped over your dish!?

Well I've heard in some SE Asian country's people eat them...:rolleyes:

I can't and will not judge if they are tastefully or not...

But I rather have different meals :ROFLMAO:
 
Pas le Legumes, non? In the Philippines on some islands exist the Cane Rat....about the size of small dogs....each year there is a Festival, during which the locals from teeny to ancient walk the canefields, driving these Rodents in front of them, beating on pans and gongs.At the end of the Fields, they are clubbed. They are collected and eaten as part of the fest. Protein is protein.

Yea, not rat stuff but "koeksisters" is a sweet syrupy desert usually found when you visit your grandmother or a ceremony after church.. Delicious

Actually, spanish paella started as rice field workers menú, and was done with whatever protein they could get their hands on, so usually sone birds, also eels they could fish and... you guess it. Rat.
Not the nasty gutter rat, but one that lives in the waters of the rice fields, locally called "taup".

Serms it is actually quite good, but unfortunatelly not something you find any more, so I (quite a like-to-taste-all) never came to try it *sigh*

You may need Gooble gooble translate here, but there is the mug of the main course.

We here would call that a Rice Rat ; they eat snails and crabs as well as grasses so l wouldnt recommend then for the table .... but all the rats that eat grain only should be edible, and squirrels are considered highly edible....The genus of ricerats is orozomys, with about 36 species in NA and SA....so yours are a different group.
Field workers might well take a shot. As I said...protein is protein

That. Maybe different species but exactly same ecosystem niche.

We are near enough France so snails are totally in the menu here, but you are right. If that rice rat is off the shelves is both for sanitary concerns... and cause they are now a protected species and the delicacy would cost you a €2000+ fine if caught ?
 
Bossche_bol_1.jpg

A Bossche or just called chocoladebol is a pastry from the Dutch city of 's‑Hertogenbosch. A large profiterole (cream puff), about 12 cm (5 in.) in diameter (i.e., somewhat larger than a tennis ball), filled with whipped cream and coated entirely or almost entirely with (usually dark) chocolate icing
