Although I don't know, I've never eaten crocodile.
I've eaten alligator, and it does taste like chicken, or at least like chicken cooked with fish.
Ouhh! Snacks! The secret to any successful migration! Who's up for some tasty fried meat products!?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have a mental tag on alligator i that claims it tastes like veal, but I think it's really just that, when I tried it, it had been battered and fried and so tasted mostly of fried batter like a veal cutlet.

I'll echo Ginger - my forays into eating gator have been mostly chicken-like, with a bit greasier texture and a hint of fish oil flavor.

I know I've had alligator sausage, but that's full of other flavors.

The food in Seattle does not include these...delicacies. I think I'll just sit over here and drink some more coffee...

Son, you're gettin' ready to hit Atlanta. Be prepared. At least for the sweet tea.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ND and I (and I think there were others) split some 'gator appetizers at the New Orleans F2F. It was nummy.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
In some places you can order half sweet half unsweet
which is still very sweet
but I like my ice to have some sweet.

I love sweet tea. LOVE. IT. It's this crocogator food NONSENSE that's causing my hackles to flee in terror.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Then you probably wouldn't like squirrel, 'possum, armadillo, nutria, or rattlesnake, either.
