Hey Andy 🐀. Growing up in NYC I've seen some giants in the subway 🚇 system. I also have probably eaten some without knowing. I recall a time at Central Park by Columbus circle I purchased a "Kabob" from a street vendor. After eating it I noticed that my last chunk of meat had hair on it. Could have been cat but the fur looked like a subway rat. My friend and I confronted the vendor and he started yelling saying that we didn't buy it from him. When he refused a refund my buddy knocked his wagon over. I wouldn't want to eat the rat skin. However these rats are not living in a train station they are country rats. Definitely cleaner. A rodent is a rodent, rat, squirrel or rabbit. Enjoy.! Seeya next time ✝️

@DMSProduktions 3 ай бұрын

I think your friend went a bit o/b with the street vendor, but you're right he should have been honest about his source of protein & those subway/sewer rats would NOT have been healthy to eat. These 1s in VN certainly would be. Cambodia also farms field rats, but the species they have are HUGE! The size of CATS! I worked with a Cambo guy named Verak, he told me about them, & said they were so nice to eat. Very good meat.

Organic as it can get. From Farm fields to the table! I bet it does not cost much for a plate of it. Western nations need to start learning how to substitute the usual meats like chicken, beef, pork, lamb.

I agree. Oz has some of the cleanest countryside in which to farm animals! (WHY our beef & poultry is so good & salmonella free!) Rats are already HERE, why not FARM the things? They'd be healthy game meat! And they'd be easier than shooting 'roos all the time as you CAN'T farm marsupials!

In the region of Flanders in Belgium, muskrat was a local delicacy. We aren't allowed to hunt them anymore. They used to catch them on the banks of small streams. It's called "water rabbit", although it's neither a rat nor a rabbit. Actual rabbit meat is much more commonly eaten here, I personally like it stewed with beer and prunes. So "alternative" meat sources aren't that exotic. We have them in "the west" as well.

Why, are they going extinct?

@Ratzie01 3 ай бұрын

@thekraken1173 they are an invasive species, not native to Europe. In Belgium they are actively hunted by the government. EU law prohibits the use of the animal in any way. This includes hunting and preparing them as food.

People who've eaten rats on the "Survivor" show have said rats taste good. I recall one where they were all squeamish and disgusted about having to eat it, but after one bite the now smiling and starving contestants said that they've got to catch more. They were so hungry that they even ate the bones.

These rats are probably the tastiest of varieties with their diet unlike the ones which rummage through waste bags and travel through urban sewers in big cities. I actually though this was a BBC documentary at first ❤
