Roast stuffed raphus cucullatus with sweet potatoes.

Well my sis-in-law had curried Pteropus there and loved it (until she
understood what she was eating!)


Bleaaahh!


No different from noshing octopus, squid, whelks, cockles, abalone,
mussels, etc.

I think that rabbits, hares, squirrels, hedgehogs, etc, would be a
better comparison; Pteropodes are fruit bats/flying foxes


Pteropods - (Pteropoda) - are molluscs...
