Escargots, IPA: [s.ka.o], (French for snails) is a dish consisting of cooked edible land snails. They are often served as an hors d'oeuvre and consumed by the French people, as well as people in Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Portugal, Sardinia, and Spain. They are also typical of the cuisines of Cyprus, Crete, and other areas of mainland Greece, as well as of the North African countries Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. The word escargot is also sometimes applied to living examples of those species which are commonly eaten in this way. In British English, the menu item is usually referred to simply as snails.

I've had it cooked well, and i've had it cooked improperly. If done well, it's honestly delicious. If overdone it's like clam strips and just turns into rubber.

9/10

I like it a lot, though when I make it for gatherings it goes mostly untouched, lol. The only problem I sometimes run into is the snails becoming too rubbery. But cooked ust right they're quite yummy.

Are the people ITT who wouldnt eat escargot also averse to eating clams/mussels/oysters/etc.? I mean theyre all mollusks - also squids & octopi but theyre not quite as comparable.

Only had it once, didn't hate it, I'd eat it again, but it's not a favorite.

7/10.

I love mollusks generally but I dont know why I cant shake off the thought of snails being absolutely disgusting. I will eat clams, mussels, oysters, calamari, etc all day. But Ive never touched snail and I grew up in Montreal.
