  • @GraemePryce1978
    @GraemePryce1978 Před 7 lety +146

    I know quite a bit about snails and I really wouldn't recommend this. Wild snails have quite a lot of parasites. I doubt they would poison you if they were cooked properly but do you really want to eat parasite ridden molluscs that have spent their lives eating mud, wet leaves and dogshit?
    Plus, they have tiny little mites called snail mites ( strangely enough ) and they aren't going to be gotten rid of by spending a few days in a jar. They live inside the lung cavity and anybody who has ever kept giant land snails as pets can tell you 8 out of 10 wild snails have them and they easily survive washing.
    Finally - they're not the same species as the ones they serve in France. I don't know if Gordon was wrong, just said that because it makes the program seem more watchable or if the scriptwriter wrote that and he just went with it, but they're definitely not.
    British wild snails are Helix Aspersa and French wild snails are Helix Maxima. Both are edible but they're not the same species. You do get Helix Maxima in the UK but only in the furthest south and they're not very common. The ones in your garden are definitely Helix Aspersa.
    I like Gordon Ramsey loads, I'm not just being an arse, but he got that wrong.

      He never said they was the same he said they taste similar but are sweeter than the french snails. Also think about all the crap that cows, or sheep or pigs eat, also any plant you eat literally gets it's energy from the sun and the dirt. I wouldn't eat snails just because i dont like the idea of the texture, i dont like shellfish and i can imagine snails being similar. I'd probably try them but i wouldnt cook them myself or order them anywhere

      +666MrCactus Sorry, i forgot this is youtube. The place where you cant make a joke without people taking things seriously. A tenner is hardly spoiling them. but i suppose you have a point. But he could at least stretch to a quid each. They are searching for snails after all. thats gotta be worth more than 5p.

      To a child a pound is a LOT of money!
      I remember I was really young and wanted a quadbike so I saved up pennies and didnt really consider if they were poind coins or pennies. and at the end i said i had saved 100 quid and showed my parents. They congratulated me on saving so much (even tho I took some coins from the piano top pounds or pennies werent different to my mind and parents didnt mind cos I was giving the money back to them in the end).
      They knew I had not saved 100 quid probably maybe around 50 something if there were pound coins in there. But yeah, looking back I know they said that to make me feel good.

They are delicious, and I can only imagine how tasty these larger land varieties are. I've only had the french version once, and it was good, but I wanted more.

      The excessive swearing is a common British trait in many areas, its a clear and straightforward way of expressing emotions as well as a form of habit, theres little reason to use complex words and sentences to express the same emotion in an attempt to sound more intelligent as Stephan Fry himself said. It harms no one and relieves stress and anger, its ultimately harmless.
