Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

In hindsight my hypothesis seems pretty silly now yeah. Squirrel and rabbit aren't really considered rich people food here in Pennsylvania, that's for sure :P Rabbit is delicious. Still have yet to try squirrel as I don't know any hunters (I'd gotten the rabbit from a farmer's market)

Your gramps was a champ. The most useful thing I ever brought home around 9 years old was wild garlic.

What's amusing to me is that lobster is now (sort of) considered rich people food, but it used to be the food fed to slaves and the extremely poor.
