Men Who Eat Muskrat It's Nothing Like Chicken

摘要

I will readily agree that some regional foods will not appeal to more than a hardcore group of aficionados. On the other hand, some of the Philadelphia area's local specialties are true social markers, and muskrat is probably at the head of the list as one of those unique identity foods on the Jersey side of the Delaware. In South Jersey terms, the muskrat dinner is one measure of manliness (leaving aside other more obvious requirements). This in turn attracts a large following of female admirers ofmen who eat muskrat. It all works out in the end. For the skeptical, I can only say that this wild animal with an unfortunate name, which locals refer to obliquely as "marsh rabbit," is probably one of America's greatest underrated delicacies. And for those who thought that Viagra was the answer, well, South Jersey is way ahead of you.
