I lived in Provence for a couple of years in the 1960s, and our maid
regularly collected the slugs from our yard in a jar full of lettuce. After
a couple of days she cooked them as escargot, and when we left France she
was as healthy and happy as the day we arrived. Why does a shell on their
backs make them less yucky?

Hint: Close your eyes and add lots of garlic and butter.

The answer seems pretty obvious: collect up the best slugs and keep
them
as pets.

Nina, helpful as always.


Alternately, you could round up a couple dozen of the larger
specimens, purge them in cornmeal for a couple days, yippee-ki-yo,
they're Nude Escargot!
