I don't think with hot sauce I could eat it. I would probably have a hard time eating duck again..lol well not really!

they are a parisite that is ingested and feeds on its host until the host dies then gets eaten by another animal which then becomes the host. at least that is how i understand the artical written about it.

Found this in 4 ducks from Ridgefield this year.
It's not true that I am good for nothing---I can be used as a bad example!!

They say if cooked it's harmless but I'll pass. I peek under the skin of every duck.   :puke:
