Really?
Can you eat any kind of snail?

i remember the first time i ate snails
they were in a soup. I looked at it and thought they were mushrooms in the soup, and when I went to eat it, I thought the mushrooms were really rubbery and chewy.

Mushrooms are fucking liver fluke in disguise.
BLEH.

We dissected them in first year of secondary school, I never ate mushrooms again.

Pretty much.
If you feed regular garden snails for a week or so on a diet of clean greens and water, you can toss them into a pan with some oil, onions, white wine and garlic and eat them.

i thought that the slime trail of a snail was poisonous
or is that the slime trail of a slug that is poisonous.
I once watched a snail crawl up the side of my greenhouse, it was fascinating watching what was going on under its foot through the glass.

Slugs apparently taste manky
which is why they can get away with not having a shell. I don't know if they're poisonous though.

i can understand the shell of a snail being its defense
but the birds eat slugs as well don't they ? Don't they ?

They'll eat KFC.
I wouldn't trust a hedgehog as far as I could spit one.

Dunno. I've only collected one sort.
And I've only done it in france. I've never been able to collect enough in England.

I heard if you smash one up with a hammer all the little bits regrow as snails
