I know:  It looks like a bowl of snot. But actually, it was one of the tastiest things I’ve eaten in quite a while. This is the dish of escargot, served with gorgonzola cheese and artichoke, with a toasted crust, that I consumed Wednesday night in Tucson. I took this photo because my seven-year-old son Dietrich has learned that I like to eat snails and he asks me frequently when I’m going to take him somewhere so he can try them. When these arrived at my table, I thought, “Let me show this kid what he’s in for.” So I texted the image to my household. He still wants to try them. But my wife texted back “Ewwwwwww.”
