Escargot.
(No, we don't serve it, and I'm fairly sure we never will, but I have wondered how to cook it.)
1) Catch a snail.
(So far so good- they don't move too fast)
2) Feed it corn flakes for a week or two.
(It seems that the rotting organic matter they eat in the wild can be toxic when ingested by people)
3) Remove the snail from its shell.
(Umm... ouch?)
4) Clean and gut the snail.
(OK. Now that's getting weird. How in the holy mollusk do you gut a snail?)
5) Cook in garlic butter or chicken stock.
(I'm not sure how you know when it's done. I don't see how it could change color, and it's sure not big enough for a thermometer)
6) Pour it back into its shell and serve.
(Pour?!?)
Enjoy, but don't bother saving any for me. I don't eat bait at breakfast.
