a rat eating feral cat.


As a supplement to a Tuna Diet rats are probably tasty (much like deer meat  
is to us).  I understand that there are peoples in this world who crave rat  
meat.  In India there is a whole tribe of people who make a living catching  
and eating rats.  Farmers whose crops are endangered by rats hire this  tribe of 
people and they are tickled pink to not only make money but to be able  to 
eat well.  Well, well can be a subjective appreciation of gourmet  appreciation. 
 Back in the old sailing days crew were fed rat meat but it  was called 
"Millers and Onions," by the chief cook(s).  This latter bit of  information is 
from that series by O'Brian.
 
Now (to keep this trail oriented) has anyone had the good fortune to a meal  
of Rat deep in the woods?  They may be difficult to catch and Mice are  
probably too small and bony.  Well, thanks be to the people who make  Ramen.
