In the Santa Cruz mountains (Ben Lomond), slugs are only one to three inches long. In Forest Springs (just outside of Boulder Creek), they have banana slugs. These are six or seven inches long, yellowish, and sort of triangular-looking. One of the Szechwan restaurants in Santa Cruz (the Swan) has a curried eggplant dish where they've cut up the eggplant in six- inch long triangular strips. The curry turns the strips yellow. And the consistency! I can't imagine a better way to make a fake dish of cooked banana slugs. I ordered the dish once. I didn't eat very much of it. -- -- Doug Landauer -- ...[ ihnp4 | mot | ucscc | amdahl ] !drivax!landauer -- "I survived the DRI layoffs." -- -- "(So far!)" --
