I haven't tried any coon... But I imagine it couldn't be to far off from bear.... Same diet in some aspects
I would say similar to bear.
That's as bad as eating coyotes.
Not even close, I've tried one of them also. :puke: :chuckle:

Would not be legal here.

In certain parts of the country there is a good market for raccoon meat. Seems to be mostly east of the Mississippi.
Would not be legal here.
Not from wild ones anyways.

My last coon I got a few months ago, my dad took it and spiced it up whole and smoked it for 4 hours and then baked it for another two. Wow! It was awesome tasting. :tup:

The raccoon meat I have eaten was pretty mild. Ya' might be surprised what you'd eat when your hungry! ;) I wouldn't eat a garbage eating coon unless he was properly purged. I'd eat a clean and properly cooked coon over ANY processed food (pizza, hot pockets, TV diners etc.) and most restaurant food's ANY day. Coon, taters, carrots, onions, salt/pepper to taste, sage, chili powder and a bit of lemon zest in a crock pot. Where does your food originate? :) :)
I have a freezer full of food that originated the same place the coons do, but that doesn't mean I'll eat coon. If I were starving I'd eat a lot worse than coon. I'd say is prefer the negative health effects of a big mac rather than eat a coon. If I had to choose. :puke:

Talk about a bunch of Girlie Men.
:chuckle:
Yeah, I always wonder about the negative opinions of things people won't even try like Spiny dogfish, Sea cucumber, Mergansers, Raccoon, Cougar, Bobcat, Coyote, Possumetc. I will try pretty much anything... once.

I've definitely eaten spiny dogfish. I used to catch them all of the time when I was fishing for Mackeral off of the piers in NC. It's not that bad if it's breaded and fried.
