In which I discuss something odd
(Category: Cheeses of Nazareth )

I’ve never eaten bear meat, though for some strange reason, I yearn to try it. I’ve no desire to kill a bear personally, but I would really like to try a bear steak.

Perhaps it’s because I get bored eating the same crap all the time. How many days of your life can you eat beef, pork, chicken, et. al.? Granted some people are vegetarians, but I won’t get started on that unnatural and misguided practice. Human teeth were meant for eating meat.

I’ve eaten a good share of rabbit in my day, which is a favorite of mine. I like ostrich. Quail, pheasant and squab—all fine alternatives to the mundane chicken, as are goose and duck. I’ve had alligator and rattlesnake, when the opportunity has come up, and I’m a big fan of venison as well.

I’m not sure that I’ve eaten a wild boar or not, but it’s certainly on my list. I’ve had buffalo burgers and enjoyed them. I’d like to try me some goat as well. I’ve hankered for moose on occasion, mainly out of curiosity. But for the most part I yearn for a nice thick bear chop.

I would imagine it's similar to venison, but maybe a bit fattier. Just a guess though. I bet it would make an awesome potroast.

When I'm really in a meat eating mood, the only thing that does it is a nice steak though. Medium rare, with maybe a slight flavor of garlic, salt, and pepper. Just a hint, not overpowering the flavor of the meat itself. Oh good lord, what's for lunch?

Carnivore mammal meat tends to be very ... strong tasting. I'd go for a mooseburger but I think I'd pass on the bearwiches.

If you crank up the grill, and I mean get that baby really hot, any animal you throw on there's going to be good eatin'.

From what I understand, bear meat is very greasy.

And human teeth are actually generalized...good for eating anything, really.

What about some wild Beaver?

I figured the over-under on a Beaver comment was going to be at least six comments, and I had odds on the comment coming from Jim.

Guess I was wrong.

You people keep complaining about bear meat being fatty.

Like bacon's not the world's best food? Hello?

Bacon's good when you fry the crap out of it, so all the fat is sitting in the pan, then you fry your eggs in it.... spread the greasy love.

Is that testosterone I smell?

At the hospital I worked in, we had a guy die, slowly, in ICU from eating bear meat. Trichinosis. His dog died three days before the guy finally was in enough pain to come check himself in. The dog had eaten the meat raw.

I forget how long it took this guy to die, but it was days, and in the end you could hear his hollering all over, cuz they couldn't dope him enough to stop the pain.

Very annoying. Put me off my lunch.

I helped kill a bear once. We shot the piss out of him. Didn't eat him, though. I hate bears. Right there with clowns.
