Yum to everything but the turtle soup. Well, maybe not but I don't know, did you try it?
tania:
Appantly turtle meat is actually really delicious. I've never tried it.
I can see how that soup would be unappetizing, though. Nothing says guilt trip like "NOT ONLY DID WE KILL A TURTLE BUT WE LEFT THE BODY IN TACT SO YOU KNOW IT WAS TOTALLY ALIVE AND KICKING ONCE LOL"

Eh, I've eaten worse. Like the camping trip where we brought live chickens for dinner. Or, to relate to the topic (and to the question about Korean seafood,) I've eaten fresh octopus where I picked the thing out of a tank, the guy threw it onto my plate and chopped it up right in front of me, and then pieces were still wriggling as they went down my throat. Mmm!

I started a recipe exchange thread last week or the week before in "Don't Be Stupid". I thought it was a good idea and I was really hoping it would take off, but it didn't. But if somebody would like to try again that would be just dandy!
EDIT: Also, when I was in Sweden I saw the salmon swimming up river, doing the whole jumping-up-rapids bit and everything. Inspired,the next day I went out and bought some gravlax. Does this make me a bad person? Or just a person who likes to eat salmon?

my cousin is road tripping/writing a book in a blog. her last entry is from kentucky, where a guy found out she'd never had turtle soup.
--- Quote from: Jessica ---"Y’e’er had turtle? Oh, mayn! A turtle’s got ‘bout se’en differn’t flavors on it! Dependin’ on what part ya eat, ya got chicken, fish, steak, porkchop, bacon, an’ burger!"
"Joe, that’s only six."
"Ah know! The other’s flavor’s the turtle!"
He gave me a verbal crash course on how to make the soup. "Ya get ya a turtle, cut the head off an’ stick a garden hose in the throat, raht? Then ya fill it wit’ water and wait for it ta’ bust out the shell! Or ya could just cut the belly an’ do it that way, but the hose way is more fun!"
"You know, I really don’t need to know how to make it." I said. "I’m not much of a cook."
"Ya shore?"
"Positive."
