I've eaten squirrel..however, never had their brains! :laugh:
That was my grandpa's favorite part. Of course, he was part of a generation that experienced the Great Depression. They believed in eating every part of the animals they killed. No waste. It's the same generation with women who go to restaurants and dump all the sweetener packages in their purse.

when asked if he's ever had raccoon after it was recently mentioned by Panthers WR Xavier Legette: "I've eaten a lot of raccoon. The answer is yes. ... It's not uncommon at all. One of my favorites is squirrel. It's wonderful. We all had our favorite pieces. ... My mom and I would even ask for the brain of the squirrel. Delicious. Seriously."

:oops:

Maybe this explains everything? :muttley:

We always knew he was a little squirrelly.

"Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed
Poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed
Then one day he was shooting for some food,
And up through the ground come a bubbling crude
(Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea)

Well the first thing you know old Jed's a millionaire
Kin folk said Jed move away from there...."

I'm calling B.S. Jerry's father owned a grocery store.

"Hey dad, no steak for me. You can keep those pork chops. Can't stand BBQ ribs or chicken."

"Instead, I clocked a squirrel with my slingshot. Can you shove that in the oven for me mom?"

Every time Jerry tries to be folksy it just comes off as disingenuous and plain phony.

Yet if you go to the fanciest french restaurant you can find, you will be able to pay a lot of money to eat snails.

It's been a million years but squirrel is damn good when prepared right. I'd be excited to get invited out for a squirrel dinner. Only tried raccoon once and it sucked, but I bet it could be prepared much better. I wonder if Jerry has ever eaten fried perch eggs. Now there is some fine eating.

Most everybody ate that stuff "back in the day".

Oddly enough, I just looked up to see who might be able to refute it if they were of a mind. The ONLY person alive that could would be his sister, but why would she? Jerry has put serious investment into his niece and nephew. I agree Jerry's story stinks....however, before his father owned a couple of grocery stores, he started out with just a fruit stand. However, he at least owned a grocery store by the time Jerry was nine.

Given how cheap Jerry is, he probably learned that from his parents...so it's POSSIBLE his family hunted squirrels for food. Many people do hunt squirrels even if they don't need it.


But Jerry is such a freaking liar that I never believe anything he says.
