Malakh: it's a figurative vision, The Angel was talking about Cornelius being clean, since Gentiles were regarded as Barbarians, why don't you eat snakes n rats then and see what Isaiah has in store for you

Lol! Na you know o. FYI Snakes are so delicious and bush rats are yummy likewise snails are very tasty in a perculiar way.

Keep depriving yourself of delicious stuffs if you like. Asides from human meat,any other one na to chop.

Good to know...I did watch Chicago land, and all I got from it was how horrible black's were been treated, due to the fact that the documentry was based on the obstacles/ stereotypes that Black folks do face on daily basis.
Funny enough, I watched that show once on CNN and I got what that show was all about. Most of that show is based on the south side of Chicago. There are pockets of bad neighborhoods on the south side and the worst is Englewood . Infact, the nickname of Englewood is ( Bucket of Blood ) because of the violence due to drugs and other vices. At the same time it's about 1 or 2 miles from Obama's mansion and celebrated university of Chicago and high end Hyde park. So what an irony.

superior1: Unlike Nigeria, the Americans take food quality and consumer safety serious
Americans consider these snails edible. However, they are not allowed to enter their country alive due to the great danger they pose to the local snail populations and the ecosystem as a whole.

sweetgala: The giant snails have actually found their way to Florida etc and I believe are considered foreign species destroying crops at an alarming rate.
The individuals are lucky they did not get a large fine

Thats true. however those were imported as pets...

Nigerians eat snails

Nice one

Can u open a thread on snial farming and share your experience

Coldfeet: Giant african land snails A.K.A GALS are considered an economic risk in most western countries as they can breed millions in just a couple of months! The effect it has on the farm crops are one of the reasons these countries prohibit their import. Many whites don't eat them rather they are seen as disease filled pests! Which is true but then we blacks have been eating them since God knows when and nothing mega! grin. Americans have got there own specie of snails that don't multiply like our GALS do but I tell you an African man will not touch it we see those species as poisonous (talk about one mans meat being another's poison undecided). Anyway as it stands no crime was committed so the owner will just have to count his/her loses and forget about ever bringing GALS to the states alive or dead/BBQd. For those unemployed graduates shouting no job GALs farming is VERY lucrative and requires little capital to start if at all any sef! I farm them for consumption I started with the wild ones that is I got them from my village farm these ones are better and produce more than majority of the ones sold in the market which may be second hand snails. Egg shells, fruits and vegetables are some of the foods snails eat. A little trick I was taught on how to get snails in the wild was to place peeled pawpaw skin or pour fruit juice at a clearing where snails may be found come back later and you'd be surprised at the number of snails you'll find there. smiley

Mynd44: And they killed the innocent snails? Where are the animal rights activists?
There is no 'animal right' for invertebrates like insects and snails because they are termed INSETINIENT.
BTW, they are right especially snails of the genus Achatina.

Yeah!!.... I was shocked, the moment I heard the Mayor ( i think ), mentioned that the university was a stone's throw away, from one of the worst Neighborhoods in America...Yet, little to non of those young adults, could afford to attend that university.

That is why I said irony of life. I drove by Obama's house recently and you will be surprised with the many eagled eyed secret service agents guarding the place.
