Coon is very good when cleaned and cooked right.

No, how else was I going to get beer in high school if I ate them?

This subject came up at one of our family gatherings a few years ago. My Great Grandmother said they used to eat coon back in the day but she never cared for it. She went on to say that, on the other hand, if someone would bring her a possum she could work some magic with it along with a couple pounds of new potatoes.

I really like it. To me it tastes just like wild rabbit.

Yup. I had a roustabout working for me at LOOP years ago. He set a trap and caught one. Came in the next morning with a tupperware full stewed coon. When lunch came around and he heated it up he had such a proud look on his face that I couldn't tell him no thanks. So I tried it. And like a few others have said...greasy, stringy, but not that bad.

I had it when I was young baked with some sweet potatoes...not a bad flavor, but it is just entirely too greasy for me....
