    Some love these and yes they do jump in the pan. I could never bring myself to try these though, I guess knowing what they were. Of course, I may have eaten these as a kid and my mom told me they were chicken. You never knew what was cooking at my house. Especially when you come home from school, open the fridge, look in the bag and there's a hog head staring at you; my mom use to make her own Sous Meat. It's a wonder I didn't need therapy when I grew up.LOL

    Love frog legs....used to peel the little rubber bands off their legs at the restaurant and get them ready to dredge (we served them ala provencal, fried and then drenched in garlic butter). Thought what a weird job, binding frog legs together with little rubber bands? Who'd a thunk of it and further still, why???

    LOVE frogs legs! Taste like chicken...lol. Used to get them at a restaurant on the harbor in Annapolis. Used to see them in my Aunt Jean's freezer up in the country! Along with rows upon rows of the most beautiful jars of tomatoes and cherries and peppers and peaches and pickles and...well you get the idea. Good memories...thanks.
