When I was a kid, I asked my french relatives a few times why people didn't eat slugs since they ate snails. It seems like there would be much more meat in slugs. All I got out of them is "UGHHH that's disgusting!!" Seems like it's all cultural. Anyway if you ever want to eat the slugs or snails that you catch, you should to put them in a cage and feed them flour for two weeks to make sure all the poisonous plants they've eaten gets out of their systems. Then you drop them in boiling water to kill them and then you can serve them with garlic and parsley fried in butter. mmmmmm mmmm!!!
