Eels and snails are two things that I have no problem eating but
there's no way I'm going to prepare them. I tried it once with snails
when I made stuffed them into mushrooms (Bourguignon style with
garlic). I was so grossed out by it that I couldn't eat anything from
appetizers to dessert on that particular Thanksgiving. Everyone told
me they were delicious, but I couldn't make myself taste one.
