I ate Thumper

At the local large grocery chain (Carrefour, E.leclerc, etc.), you can find: rabbits and horses. In the fresh meats section. That is, dead and ready to eat. Oh those French.

I had some rabbit tonight. Surprise, it tasted like chicken! If no one told me it was rabbit, I would have assumed it was extra tasty chicken. I think I'll pass on going out of my way to eat a hunk of Mister Ed though.

Official list of meats that taste like chicken but better:

• Rabbit
• Frog
• Guinea pig
  

Upcoming: My Dopplr is poorly managed. I finally head to Bordeaux on Tuesday. I am not currently "home in Chicago"--still in Toulouse.


Although I'll be heading into strict oenophile territory, I really miss these German radlers! (Some organic radler beer served at a vegetarian restaurant, Berlin, Germany)


Incidentally, the Barcelonans drank them too under different names. The Barcelona brewery, Estrella Damm, actually makes its own version of the much enjoyed lemon+beer mix. Really, it's awesome. I'm going to start mixing bitter lemon soda with beer all the time now. (Panda enjoys some lemonised Estrella Damm with tapas at the cerverzeria, Barcelona, Spain)
