I thought the gopher turtles were protected. I’ve stopped in the middle of many a road to pick one up and take him out of harm’s way.
Deviating a bit from the Pahokee soil conditions thread: I’ve seen his height listed at anywhere from 6-1 to 6-4.
They are....developers have to relocate. I'm on 4 acres and when we built that was something we had to address.
I do that too Skink. I feel much empathy for all of our wildlife now. The time frame I’m referring to is the 1950’s and I was pretty insensitive to Mother Nature in those days even though I was raised differently. I think they became a protected species in 2007. You and I were probably protecting them long before that.
It’s just sausage. Pig scraps and seasonings. Doesn’t look appetizing to me, but I knew folks in TX and LA that loved it. They poke fun at Floridians that eat mullet.
Au contraire - you don’t know hog head cheese like I know hog head cheese, and it has damn little to do with sausage
It’s pig scraps and seasonings. That’s all sausage is. The way it’s cooked and cooled, it congeals into a weird gelatinous mass, but it’s still just sausage. There’s lots of sausages that don’t look appetizing to me, but are delicacies in other cultures.
This forum is embarrassing. The Austin Simmons commit is the biggest recruiting news to happen in probably four-months, yet barely half the posts are even about him or the impact on our program. If I were Simmons and came across this thread, I wouldn't feel very important or noticed by the fans. Gator Country has become bad for Gator football. There was another thread recently about fan apathy, but that's just this website where Gator-related sports news is too boring to be the only major topic.
You’re not telling me anything I don’t already know. The hog head cheese I bought on River Road for my friends in LaPlace weren’t no sausage. My buddies described it (after I’d already eaten several saltines with this stuff spread on them), that they boil the head of the pig and what floats to the top is skimmed off - and that’s what we were eating. That’s hog head cheese. I asked them who in the world came up with that idea and my buddy said “man, the only part of the pig we don’t eat is the squeal, and we record that”.
They used to serve cooter out at the Yearling in Cross Creek, but that was many years ago. I’m assuming thats been illegal for some time.
