Up here in the Russian River Ridges, banana-slug country supreme, the
riverrat town of Goonieville [er, Guerneville] used to hold an annual
SlugFest with music, booths, etc, and a cooking contest judged by
local DJs. Since discontinued. Bother. Anyway, at one of the later
Fests, a food entry was submitted, Banana Slug Cream Pie, consisting
of live sluggies in a graham-cracker shell covered with whipped cream.
And a brave yet insane woman, judging the contest, actually tasted
this, becoming AFAIK the only known human to voluntarily eat live
banana slugs. And smile. Grimly.

Washingtonians are much more slug oriented. apparently, than others. This recipe
appeared in the Evergreen College paper a long time ago (my clipping is yellowed and
brittle). FROZEN DIPPED SLUGS: This has been a family favorite for a long time,
especially during summer months. Just take slugs and jam them on the end of a popsicle
stick (the big green ones are best). Then dip slugs in chocolate sauce, roll in chopped
nuts and freeze.

If anyone really, really wants them I also have recipes for Stuffed Crown Roast of
Slugs, Shake and Bake Slugs, Slug Pate and the ever popular Devilled Slugs
Extraordinaire.
