Had it at a fancy French restaurant. I was interested in the fact that they’re essentially boiled in butter and herbs(?) but my brain 100% did not connect the dots as I forked one and bit in. Burned my mouth so fuckin bad I went through 2 glasses of ice water just so I could taste the halibut special I accidentally spent $70 on.
Idk. There are some big fucking snails out there
Yeah but they’re molluscs.
Snails are used in some cuisines (France). I’ve had them. They’re not bad.
Snails are an excuse for the French to down a stick of butter.
Yeah, I’ve tried escargot and can definitely recommend.

Snails are good, too. Creamy and tender, reminded me of scallops.
They were doused in butter/garlic, so that may have been part of the reason, but still
