I remember when I was a child, my grandmother and my aunt used to
make the best rabbit you could ever imagined. I mean, it was even
better than fried chicken, and I am really picky. Their rabbit was
waaaaay above anything else. I don't know how they did it, but they
did. I've heard since then, that rabbit is not an easy thing to
prepare because it can be quite tough if done incorrectly. Guess
those ladies had a gift. Sure miss them.

I have no problem eating duck or goose either, however I draw the line
at road kill and rabbit. The bones in rabbit are sharp and rabbit has
to be harvested and eaten at the right time of year unless you want
rabbit's worms to punch your reincarnation ticket which they most
definitely shall do.
I don't think I've ever eaten shepherd's pie made with lamb either and
find that curious.
