    I had wild rabbit at a restaurant where the chef cooked meat he hunted himself. It had a really strong flavour I couldn’t quite name. I could see other people enjoying it, but not me personally.

    There was a sign that warned diners to watch out for free prizes (shotgun pellets). I didn’t come across any, but I was wary of chewing too hard in case I did.

    Oyster. Anything with the consistency of snot that you’re supposed to swallow without chewing isn’t food. I can make my own salt water that tastes much less disgusting.

    Any “big game”. Moose taste like swamp.

    Venison can be good if it’s properly butchered and stored. It so often isn’t though. People will shoot a deer then leave it to hang for a day in 50-60 degree weather. Just gross.

    Bears are too greasy. And they’re too smart, eating them is just bad karma.

    A lot of game meat can be good, people just have no clue what to do with the processing side of it. They’ll spend thousands of dollars buying the most ridiculous gear to kill the damn thing, and then just fail at butchering and preserving. Hunting is the easy part.

      As someone who just bought land and is learning to hunt, this is a very interesting comment.
