I have eaten squirrel and most every other critter in the woods of Florida. It's was part of rural southern culture to participate in group gatherings in the woods and eat "limb bacon."
My mother also cooked "swamp cabbage" that my dad cut from palms in the woods. It was a big treat. Swamp cabbage is called hearts of palm in restaurants and can be had in a salad at Bonifay.
