The sportsmans clubs around here used to all have turtle fries. Fried turtle, mashed potatoes, cole slaw, and kneecaps.
Alligator is common today even in restaurants all the way up here. Turtle, snake, and iguana are still common enough by those with access to them. I know other types of lizards used to be a lot more common the further you go back.
I take a turtle once in a while. Ive had snake elsewhere but there really arent much in the way of edible size ones here and the few that exist are rare enough to just let them be. Lizard wise I guess Im just entirely out of luck, we dont have any.
??? kneecaps ???
