Would you like a ssssslice?Does python taste like rattlesnake? Because if so, yep, I'd prolly eat it.
A Florida pizza joint is offering a special slithering pie topped with virtually every creature that lives in the swamp.
Evan’s Neighborhood Pizza in Fort Myers, Fla. tops its Everglades pie with a curious amalgam of animals including hog, alligator, tomato, frogs legs, swamp cabbage — and, for good measure, python.
“I'm very adventurous when it comes to food, that's for sure,” owner Evan Daniell, 52, told the Daily News on Thursday. “You have different flavors throughout each bite.”
The python, for example, has a chewy consistency and is marinated to remove the “gamey” taste of the meat. The frog's legs, which include the bones, have a cleaner taste than chicken, Daniell said.
I've had frog legs and alligator, and while neither are so good I'd pay extra for them, both would serve in a famine.
The idea was born in the pizza shop two years ago when the employees were discussing the invasion of pythons in the Everglades.Uh, yes, Florons like to try to gross out their out-of town-kin and friends.
“The out-of-state people want to try it because it’s like a dare,” said the wife, 42.
The family is not done pushing the envelope with their pies, Evan Daniell said. The husband has considered a “roadkill” pizza that would include raccoon, armadillo and even possum meat.You can always make your own road kill.
“I've yet to find a supplier,” he said.
You have heard about the Floron seven course dinner, haven't you?
A six pack and a 'possum.
