(10,202 posts)43. Doesn't look like enough meat
To feed 3 boys and their parents.
And they never really describe the taste. They only say it's good. Is it gamey? Does it have that sour iron taste that rabbit and rodents have? Is it greasy like squirrel? Is it chewy or falls apart in your mouth?
I think it would have been better to just let the possum live instead of doing such a poor job of describing it and not even getting enough meat to feed a family.
