Waddles is probably as close to an "American Graffiti" drive inn Portland had and maybe Yah's & The Speck.
lol...i've had emu and its very good but Ive not eaten camel yet, they are one of my favorite animals but so are elk and I eat them.
It's what you ate when you were younger that tastes good now. I remember going on a trip with my father that took us through Pendleton and LaGrand. One of those towns has having a buffalo feed. I had read several books about pioneers and I remember stories where they ate buffalo so I wanted some bad. They had a long line which made my father say "Son, you don't want to wait in that long line, do you?" Even though I was only about 9 or 10 I remember thinking that my father just didn't want to eat buffalo and so he made up this excuse. I loved my father so I said "Yeah dad, the line is too long" even though I felt the line wasn't too long. Okay, the reason for this story: Now, when I to to the grocery store I see buffalo for sale but I just can't bring myself to buy any. Had I had it on that trip with my father I'd probably be eating it on a regular basis today. I remember going to a friend of my parent's house to eat homemade chili. We got half way through our bowls of chili, which tasted just fine, when he suddenly announces that he used horse meat. At first I was taken back, wondering "What the heck" but then I returned to my bowl of chili and finished every last morsel. Could I eat horse meat today? Probably. I've eaten some strange foods here and there and I could eat them again but others that are a bit out of the ordinary I could not eat and that includes emu and camel not to mention bats.
There’s a place on my route called Barbur World Foods. The owner is a Lebanese guy. You can get Burmese Python meat for $35 a lb. You can also get Kangaroo, alligator and all kinds of others. I’m a carnivore the extreme. Thinking about trying out some funky shit for the hell of it.
For many decades that was a Piggly Wiggly. You used to be able to get elephant meat and quails eggs at Stroheckers' market in the Portland Heights on SW Patton road. I don't eat no kangaroo, alligator or python. In fact I don't eat no snakes of any kind although I've heard it tastes like chicken.
