| Eating Squirrels
Has anybody tried eating Grey Squirrel? I know that when they were shot during the early 1950's the tails were cut off but the bodies were left on the ground. Remembering that meat was still on rationing then, surely if they were edible the bodies would have been used. I particularly remember this, because I enquired at the time why the squirrels were dead on the ground but minus their tails. Apparently the government paid 1shilling (£1/20th) for the tails.
So I wonder. Are they edible?
