Hot Ingredient Of The Moment! Squirrel Recipes

Sunday on Meet The Press, Mike Huckabee addressed what could be one of the greater scandals of his presidential bid thus far: back in January on Morning Joe, Huck confessed to frying squirrel in a popcorn popper and eating it as a snack while in college. Call us conventional, or maybe just Yankee, but we were intrigued and slightly repulsed. Just how far can this squirrel snack go? Despite Huckabee's claim that squirrel "tastes like... squirrel," it seems that there are a lot of ways to spice it up. After the clip, here are some of the more interesting recipes that call for our little backyard bushy-tailed friends:

Squirrel Brunswick Stew(Please note the call for 10 squirrels, "disjointed"--ew!)

Squirrel Soup("This soup is good served over Chinese noodles")
