People would be surprised to know that gator is almost on the menu... nowhere in Florida.

Never had much gator in Florida.  Maybe up in the Pensacola area.

Had lots of gator in Louisiana.

Louisiana is into gator far more than Florida from what I understand. 

Have not spent much time in Florabama, so I can't really offer comment.

You can go to an Asian market in the US and get cans of pickled crickets, quail eggs, and all kinds of nasty stuff. Then there's soul food with chicken guts, pigs feet, hog jowel, chitlins, etc. You needn't go overseas in order to find gross things to eat.
 The Pickled Cricketts sounds like a good name for a Blue Grass Band that plays in barns around the county on Saturday Nights

I was thinking of the late,great Cricket when tapping that out

Guy Fierri once took Triple D down the Mississippi. From Mom & Pop places at the top of Minnesota Head Waters thru The Big Easy. He basically hinted, wink-wink,nudge-nudge that you could still get livestock brains if you knew who to ask. If true it rightfully was big no-no when Mad Cow was flourishing but the old timers depended on such delites during the depression and they prolly knew how to serve it up

I'd eat cricketts but it would have to be seasoned and roasted,frying would cancel out the nutritional value ;D

Maybe there's more gator served north of I-4 for whatever reason.  Tons of places in Jacksonville/Gainesville offer gator tail as an appetizer.  
Conch fritters, too.

Fried gator tail. I've had it in Florabama. Tastes like chicken (no taste).

I'll take what BB is having but since it's off the board I'm having last nite's Eggplant Parmesan, great recipe. It's from my mom who got it from an Italian neighbor Lady back in the Day. Mom for years canned her own tomatoes and peppers

I tended to get McDonalds breakfast on my way to work sometimes, because 2 of them are on the way.
I like to order extra bacon on my breakfast sandwich.
On the receipt, it's called "two half-strips of bacon"
One strip of bacon?
NO!
2 half-strips.
FFS.
Anyway, at the one location, it's 99 cents.  At the other, it's $2.49.
$2.49 for a strip of bacon.
So one location gets my business and the other is still open...somehow.
