You ever get around here, I can promise you three things: cheese grits, deep fried okra, and either catfish, frog legs, or turtle...maybe with a bit of swamp cabbage on the side. Uh huh!!

Swamp cabbage is the heart of a cabbage palm, chopped up and cooked with salt and pepper. It ain't bad. Goes pretty good with the ham from a 50 pound shoat too.

I know on the eastern shore of Maryland , muskrat is a delicacy to the country folks. But ever once in a while someone slips so Nutria in the supply and it ain't as good. The Nutria eat roots and a lot other things. Muskrats wash all the diirt off the grasses they eat.......

Well,they aren't bad! Hell of a lot better than bear, they only eat vegetation, like cattle.

Yep, they eat nutria on Eastern Shore but only in Dorchester County around Cambridge, Md. The other eastern shore county folk rather eat crabs and rock fish supplemened by a few stolen
Purdue chickens.
