What's snipe? I haven't heard of it. Father claims that moose is the most nommy meat, but you're not gonna see too many moose in NM. Same with woodchucks (besides, they're too cute to eat), and pheasant. Mom loves frogs' legs, but I'm not one for eating amphibians. It's not about being poor, it's about having an open mind about trying new things. We were not rich growing up, too, but that didn't mean we were "poor" 'cuz I had far more life experiences than most kids in my school! Damned proud to be from the 'wrong side of the tracks'.
