Day 295: Snails



I think, generally, I'm quite adventurous when it comes to food... but... I'm afraid, there is something about snails. Maybe it's the look of their rubbery texture or the knowledge of how they drag their slimey asses over every surface. I don't know if I will ever actually pluck up the courage to try them.

They are popular in Morocco though, great vats of the things, as here, at the many snail stalls in the Djemma El Fna, all with plenty of people gathered round enjoying their hearty bowl of snail soup.
Sadly, I wasn't one of them. Not this time anyway.

  2. You're probably right, I just need to be a bit more open-minded about the slimey critters :-)
