Question to Peggy Rismiller yesterday:" So what *does* Echidna taste like?

Dr Peggy: It tastes like suckling piglets.



Her answer amused me greatly, but I would have said "baby koalas."

I'd have thought they'd taste like an earthy potato. ;) Silly me.

Silly. Kidnas aren't vegetables!

Well, they're vaguely potato shaped, at least.

I'd say it would taste like someone put alcohol in the punch...

Having grown up in the Rocky Mountain region, I know full well what they are. I was making a joke about the contents of hot dogs.

I've always wanted to try koala just for the eucalyptus-pickled effect.

You're both wrong. It tastes like a cross between an American Bald Eagle and a Spotted Owl!

I'm surprised she didn't answer with an emphatic "chicken!"
Given that chicken seems to be the flavour most people associate with obscure and unknown animals

Most definitely does NOT taste like chicken! She was very definite about that.

IME, most of the things that people say "taste like chicken" actually taste much more like turkey instead. This includes rattlesnake.
