I like turtles

 

[Born 2 Fish]

I like turtles

but do you like turtle soup ?

 

[ftwildernessguy]

but do you like turtle soup ?

Boy howdy! When I was a kid my brother and I would go over to my grandma's house and catch snapping turtles. We'd take a hay fork and tap em on the nose until they got mad and bit it. Then we'd carry the turtle over to the neighbor lady and she'd make turtle soup for us. Her husband would hold the turtle on the ground by the shell and she'd pull on the hay fork and stretch the turtle's neck out, then "WHAP", off it went with a hatchet. Even after being cut off, those turtles wouldn't let go of that fork. That was some good soup, though.
