I confess the current bodyfat thread is the straw that is close to getting me to do a DXA scan, just so I have a fact based personal frame of reference.

I really wanted to try turtle. Its apparently incredible, like pork and butter had a baby and it came out a perfect 50:50, like a meat croissant. I looked for it when I was in Cuba but couldnāt find it anywhere. I think you have to go ādodgyā to get it.
We used to have turtle soup over here. Had it as a kid and all I remember is the meat is somewhat tasteless but has a nice texture. Like cheap abalone.

I think its giant ones specifically that are so good. But yet to try. Unlikely I ever will now, pretty sure they are endangered.

Turtle soup is AMAZING!!!
One of my grandparentās former students own a farm and they raise turtles => gifts. The soft shell and liver are the best!

I guess it depends on how itās cooked while the texture is what makes it more palatable than other stuff. Also pretty much like abalone. Seriously, Iāve had cheap and expensive abalone after being dumped into a hotpot and I canāt tell the difference.

You should do it! Usually pretty cheap and a crap ton of information
Actual confessions:
Yesterday my neighbors dogs (2 big black labs) got loose and were running toward a busy road, so I chased them back to their yard. But once wrangled and back in their yard they became very protective/territorial and turned on me. In my best dad voice I backed them down but it became acutely clear that at 200+ lbs of multiple dogs I was outweighed and outnumbered, and if it werenāt for their decent disposition I could have gotten my ass chewed like a big moist squeaky toy.
Didnāt occur to me right away, but there was some real fear there for a few moments.

I just started back to squatting about 1 month ago after a near 2 year hiatus. I am still dying. I have never hurt this bad from squatting. I am getting old as fuck.

Pigs are smart, and really friendly.
I read a book called āThe Octopus and other mindsā and since then canāt eat octopus. But I can still eat squid (calamari) with no squeamishness.
There was a Uruguayan rugby team which was in a plane crash in the Andes in 1972 - the survivors turned cannibal to survive (thereās a really good book about it called āAliveā) so I guess if youāre hungry enough you can eat anything.

Just my personal opinion. I didnāt care for it. I only tried black bear so maybe brown bear is better. It really was THAT greasy.

No. Camel is probably on the list of last things on earth to eat. Ya know, if there is no grass or tree bark left.
