Hey Doug On another garden site, a Linda from Calgary AB writes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's a good one for you all. My mother is down for a visit and posed this question to me, can a person eat slugs? Well she sure got the look from me! Eat a slug, not in this lifetime. However my Mom is sure that they can be eaten, after all we eat snails.' Anyone got any good slug recipes for my insane mother? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cheung from NY writes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sure, you can eat them. They are used as a herbal remedy for childhood diseases. Nowadays, people just get chicken-pox shots. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Got a chile recipie I could send to these folks? Maybe Mary-Anne could find another use for hers.?? Lord Byron
