I don't know exactly who came up with the concept . I am sure someone on here does .

One of the things I learned a while back was to set yourself apart from the crowd .

The dude I learned it from used the example of eating a frog .

Think about it if you see 100 people eating an ice cream cone and one person sitting with them eating a frog , which one will you look twice at? Which one will you tell others about ?

Unless you are from somewhere that doesn't have ice cream you will more than likely notice the frog eater .

There are a lot of frog eaters online . You may even eat frog yourself . Has eating frog made you stand head and shoulders above the rest ?

The answer is probably no.

The problem is , you are sitting there with a look on your face that says "this is the shi&&iest frog I have ever tasted ".

Eating frog is not as unusual as it once was . A lot of frog eaters have joined the online world as of late .

Now you could just jump on the lizard eating wagon. Then the buzzard wagon. I think you get the point .

Face it , you have set yourself up as a frog eater . You have a lot invested in all those frog recipes.

Time to take a new direction in frog eating .

Instead of trying to sell the concept of chocking down a slimy frog, start telling everyone how good the frog taste. Tell them just how healthy the frog is for you . Let them know that since you started eating this delicious frog your jumping ability has increased ten fold . Shoot Billy Bob started eating frog the way I showed him and he is planning on jumping five buses next week ( for charity of course ) .

Eating frog will make you a little money . Having everyone you come in contact with say " that's some mighty tasty looking frog " will make you a rich frog eater .

    Hmm, that's not the analogy I've always heard about eating a frog.

    The best way to deal with a problem is to confront it head on and deal with it quickly. It's like eating a frog. If you sit and stare at it you'll just get sick to your stomach thinking about it. It's best just to eat it in one gulp.

            Frog rocks, you guys don't know what yer yappin' about. Next time you're down in the 'Glades, y'all hop on over to Coopertown and have Mabel fry you up a nice fresh batch.

            Have some gator fritters, too, they have bite.

      Yep. When I got my graphic artist to put the ridiculous chef's hat on my head for my IM Recipe series, my wife laughed herself silly and my sister e-mailed me to say I looked a right fool. However, customers didn't think so. Being different sold a ton of Recipes.

    My frog legs would never be confused for chicken but I eat them Cajun style. Hot, spicy, cooked through and through with all the rotten stuff taken out and the good stuff left ... but in a way unlike you can get it anywhere else in the world!

    Stop by, have a beer, have a plate of frog's legs and you will never look back!

    Presentation is important, but if there is no substance and something for people to enjoy, they still ain't gonna buy it!

    Vinegary raw-frog over rice? Yeah, about the same time I start eating chicken heads! Ya gotta find a chef's hat for the title too ... something to make it attractive enough to try!


    Just my two cents

    I have had gator tail and corn fritters but never had gator fritters. Where I grew up, fritters were generally some type of fried veggies or fruits cooked up like pancakes. Or is "fritters" here short for fried critters?

    Sounds good though. I bit of fried gator tail would be nice. I may be a hillbilly but I hung out with enough coon-a@@es and did enough bass fishing to have a healthy appreciation for the swamps too

    Just my two cents

      Gator fritters are like, ummm little gator-meat croquets. Basically shredded gatormeat with spices and veggies, rolled up into little balls and baked up or flattened out some and fried up. Plunk down a fat bowl of spicy tomato cocktail sauce, and you're good to go.

      Cain't eat jes' one, nosir!

    Or you can sell a lot of frogs at "Every Day Low Prices" that people will eat even if they hate them because they're getting such a big discount on them.

    I've had frog legs, they taste like chicken. lol.

    Where do you find frog legs for cooking? How do you prepare them? Are they good for you? Etc.

    What a great analogy, it got me thinking.

    Thanks.

      Man, you need to find a new place to get chicken!

      We gig frogs with a gig (it generally looks like a small tritan) Boil them for a couple of minutes, skin them and then fry them. Some people bake them but I never liked them that way.

      LOL Like chicken? Dang, how did they explain those tiny drumsticks? LOL

      Sorry, but never had frog legs that could have been confused with chicken!

      Still, find something, make it interesting enough, find out how it helps people, package it up, (Preferably so it does not look or taste like chicken LOL) Let people discover how great it really is on its own two legs (Couldn't resist) and you may just have a winner!

      Thanks for a fun topic ... though I just noticed I have forgotten to keep up with my to-do list and spent the better portion of a day here on the forum
