I wish I were in Tijuana
Eating barbecued iguana

They really do taste just like chicken... because their molecular physiology is the same. It’s one time when the cliché is accurate. I don’t get why the hesitation.
Brother and I worked that out as kids of the 60's.
We got skilled at hitting birds and lizards in the head. We shot until the target was down.
Ew. Iguana doesn’t gross me out, but dear hearts? That’s nasty. :-)
I wouldn’t think the Cubans would need to be told.
And Boone’s Farm isn’t extinct, I don’t think. Not sure about Night Train.
Start offering $$$ for Iguana tails, folks will breed them for the $$$... Common sense...
Wow, Mad Dog even has new flavors. Banana Red, Blue Raspberry. Must be aiming for the homeless children.
kill them in the wild, breed them and kill them...isn’t the final result the same?
That’s my inner southern Brother Dave Gardiner popping up.
I can’t tell if you got it.... eating dear hearts?
I have a friend who originally came from Trinidad and Tobago. He claims iguanas are delicious.
It already is legal to hunt them.
They will be gone by this time next year.
Nope! Won't happen. We need to wait for the next big freeze to wipe out over 99% of the iguanas as happened in 2010 and then soon put a $100 bounty on the remainder.
It's an instinctive hesitation but I hope to overcome it by eating some iguana. Did you personally eat iguana? If so, let us know in detail how it tasted? Yeah, I know it tastes like chicken but what else?
Now there are Nile Monitor lizards roaming there also.
No closed season on any of the foreign species.
Something very effective for hunting these lizards,, bufo toads...22 cb caps. A small lead bb w/ the primer only propellant.
I used them against Bufos all the time when I lived down there. Very effective and not loud. Close range though.
No kidding. At certain times of the year 40f is t-shirt weather around here.
Really? MD 2020 and Boone’s Farm wines are still around? Tells you what I know about wine. Somewhere between nothing and none.
When I drank I was more of a domestic beer and occasional shot of tequila guy.
I thought anything below 70 in South Florida was a “freeze”!
I saw Boone’s Farm in a local store that carries a lot of craft beers. I had to google Maddog.
Back in San Diego in 1968 a couple of us sailors indulged in “Vampire Liberty”. When you gave blood at the local Red Cross facility, they would give you a ten dollar bill. Then we’d go a the nearest liquor store and buy a couple of quarts of T-Bird and head on down to the Sunset Cliffs. When you’re a pint low, a pint of the ‘Bird gives you quite a head.
