It's real common in rural Michigan, although I live in Ohio now. Same with Racoons and Opposum.Here's a link for you.

One time (that's all it took) I smelled squirrel that was being cooked. It was ... probably around the mid 70s, and after all these decades, I can still physically remember how horrible the smell was to me. Oh gag... now I need chocolate to erase that memory.

I would be in there in a heartbeatIn Florida some country people eat squirrel, and rattlesnake too...maybe other things too that I am not aware of. I stay out of those kitckens, lol!
I know about squirrels we have millions here.believe me..I know they're supposed to be rats with tails.. and tell me about the damage they do.. just in the last couple of months they broken my fence because some ''kind'' neighbour is feeding them so they run along my fence and have broken it beyond repair... buttttt... we never eat them... I think if a restaurant here put squirrel on the menu..they'd be boycotted...Here's a link for you.
not surprised.Squirrel is good.
Oh ok. Saw a cooking show were they made it the old fashioned way so that turned me off.

Balut
Developing poultry embryo boiled and eaten
Balut is a fertilized developing egg embryo that is boiled or steamed and eaten from the shell.
I hate clams and oysters, but I am OK with oatmeal, however I must confess I like my oatmeal cold. I like to sprinkle sugar on the hot oatmeal and then wait till it is cold. I hate saurkraut with a passion! There are other foods I am not crazy about but would eat if someone served it to me.I saw another thread asking about oyster stew. That got me thinking...what are some foods you absolutely refuse to eat?
You can include why if you like.
For me?
Clams and oysters. Here, eat this mucus. Ugh.
Oatmeal. Here, eat this vomit.
I don't know how people can eat that stuff.
