There’s a great scene in an episode of Columbo where he is served a portion of chilli made with squirrel meat - 🐿️ 🌶️

The game butcher in Holt, Norfolk often has squirrel .. I’ve tried cooking it fast as well as slow … it’s palatable but wouldn’t be my top choice. Tree rats in my book !

I don't think they'd be anyone's top choice of meat but...Eat a grey save a red.

We had a weeping willow and after it was trimmed by a tree surgeon we noticed the squirrels could more easily eat it’s young shoots. The tree is now dead 😡
