The Culinary Opossum

...Dat lus-cus bit of tem-tin meat, You're sure to find a treat*
 |
Ah, there's nothing like sitting down to a good meal of
possum. It's A Southern Delight, Chicken and Possum.
|
|
|
| And, while people are known to be fairly particular about
their preferences, the Virginia Opossum lives with a make-do attitude. Just about anything
will be just fine, thank you. |

Here is an ever-growing documented list of stuff that people have seen
possums eat: |
| chicken, dead birds, pheasants, eggs, insects, grains,
persimmons,pokeberry, crayfish, crabs peanut butter!--especially on bread with a
sprinkle of sugar on top |

Cohen. 1909.
