I’ve been enjoying gator at different places for a few years now. If your gator tastes like chicken, you may have been served actual chicken. Good gator tastes like… well, gator. Sort of a cross between chicken and pork and some other things*.


*I swear I’ve never tasted human flesh, but I have a sinking suspicion that gator may have taste or textural elements similar to human flesh. Perhaps I’ve just eaten gators that consumed a Florida Man or two.

Also, you’d probably make more money selling that gator hide to a luxury purse manufacturer, assuming the quality is top notch. I would never consider wearing boots like that unless I was planning to dress as a pirate or Liberace for Halloween.

In Florida you only get two tags a year. Louisiana is a bit different. Not sure what state OP is in though.

But not Oreos. He “doesn’t” stuff his face with them.
