ReplyDeleteLet me guess, monitor tastes like chicken.
All white meat tastes like chicken.
ReplyDeleteI always get a twitch about the institutional crowd 'discovering' something the locals have known about for an eon or twelve. I hope the local name for it becomes part of the linnaean nomenclature, but I'll bet those skittish lizards wish they were a lot LESS well known if they're so professional at avoiding being dubbed "fingerlickingius lunchius".
ReplyDeleteKinda hot, in a reptilian sort of way.
