Alafalfa sprouts are underrated.

They make every deli sandwich and salad better, but so few places offer them.

>> No.11823895

sprouts in general are underrated and you rarely see them outside of hipster shops in the US

I had really nice snails and frog legs in Lyon France, however we waited ages (like 1.5 hour) for our food.

Frogs are tasty also.

Snails are pretty hit or miss, I liked them as a kid for the garlic butter they were drenched in. Frog legs on the other hand are quite delicious and if you've never had it but can, I suggest you do.

Yeah, I’ll bet you prefer snails over oysters. It’s cool, more oysters for me, just don’t offer me a snail and get offended when I say no.
