11. sacre mille diables!

:puke: j'adore des oeufs avec fromage, et aussi des escargots, mais ensemble? Non, non, et NON!

[LynzM]

12. je n'adore PAS des escargots

Ils goutent comme sable... peut-on le dit? Je ne sais... Je n'ai pas parle le francais il y a ... sept ans?

Either way, no way I'm eating that!

[bicentennial_baby]

13. i stil wuv you, regardless

escargots are not for everyone, this i know. :)

[LynzM]

17. Awww, thanks!

:)

[Bassic]

22. Ils goûtent le sable.

They taste like sand.

[LynzM]

24. Thanks!

Like I said, it's been a long time, and I was never fluent. Can you explain how you'd say "they taste sand" as in the people are actually tasting sand, as opposed to something tasting like sand? Merci!

[Bassic]

28. It's pretty much the same thing in french, so

Ils goûtent le sable, still works.

[BiggJawn]

14. Oooh! GAS!

Giant African Snails!
Illegal to possess in the US. These are AVERAGE sized ones, and the buggers can live up to 10 years, reproduce like rabbits, and eat everything they can get their slimy big mouths around....

This is the "eating snail"

[bridgit]

16. now that's disgusting...

[tigereye]

15. holy crap!

I had no idea they were that big!

[Love Bug]

18. Cheesy eggs and snails? No way!

[youthere]

19. Why do you hate America?

[Callalily]

20. J'aime les escargots

mais ceux-ci sont extrêmes trop grands. Me donner l'une menue n'importe quel jour.

A vrai dire, j'avais juste quelques la semaine dernière.

CLASSIC ESCARGOTS A LA BOURGUIGNONNE (credit Epicuious)

This appetizer can be made with the leftover snails from Scallops with Snail-Garlic Butter and Leeks

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1 7-oz can snails, rinsed

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Purée butter, garlic, parsley, and shallot in a food processor. Season with salt and pepper.

Divide half the garlic butter among sterilized snail shells. Stuff with snails (1 per shell) and remaining garlic butter.

Bake 10 minutes.

21. Eggs of cheese?

Perhaps you meant " Omelette au fromage"

[bridgit]

26. i sprinkle brie on scrambled eggs yes...

:hi: does not have to per se be an "omelet"

[Bassic]

29. Indeed, then it would be "Oeus au fromage"

Btw, how the heck do you sprinkle bree? :shrug:

[bridgit]

30. hubby is the gourmet, he 'kitchen preps' it into little cube things...

then i get to play chef :thumbsup:

[Bassic]

31. Ah I see

:)

By the way I made a spelling mistake, it's Oeufs, and not Oeus

[bridgit]

32. it is all good, friend, thanks for stopping by...

:pals:

[zanne]

23. It's the horns!

Why must they have horns?

[Redstone]

25. No thanks, I don't eat any slugs. And you KNOW that's what you have

when you take a snail out of its shell, is a big old SLUG.

You can have mine; I'm not that hungry right now, actually.

[bridgit]

27. you are correct, sir...

:thumbsup: neither my cup of tea
