Snails…
From the garden to the table in only two weeks.
Or you can keep them as pets.

  9. I love escargot and have thought about making them, but after reading that Chow Hound recipe/article, I think I will just eat them when dining out!

  13. I couldn't possibly eat a snail – so I'd definitely be keeping Melvin as a pet! Keep us up to date with the fate of Melvin!

  14. Okay, so, these are the ones you eat? Because I'm sure you can't just pick up random_snail_01 and fry him up for breakfast, right? He is kind of cute, too — I believe I would definitely have to name him and call him my very own. :)~
