LIMA, Peru (Reuters) -- Peruvian officials saved some 4,000 endangered frogs from being whizzed into popular drinks after they were found hidden in an abattoir.
"We were checking the fridges when out jumped a frog. It had escaped, they were in big crates," a spokesman for Lima city hall said on Thursday.
Frog cocktails are popular in the Andes because of their supposed aphrodisiac qualities.
Shops in central Lima selling the drinks have tanks where customers can choose their frogs.

Pretty much. More of a fishy taste and chewier than chicken.
Next time I'm craving rubber fish, I might give it another try...

Or, you could go to the local sushi restaurant and get octapus.

If you can get your date to drink frog, you don't need an aphrodisiac.

Perhaps that's what the consumers of liquified frogs hope to do, replace the missing DNA that helps the IQ? Obviously they could use some help with their missing IQ.
