    You have to catch the possum first, then corn feed it for about a month or two to get the nasty taste out of the meat before you eat it. So basically, turn it into a pet, then kill and eat it.

      Is… is that actually true, or are you having a laugh? I genuinely cant tell.

      but if its true, thats an awful lot of effort to make something nasty taste decent.

        Its how they did it for the Possum Festival in Florida when I was growing up, so its a thing, But I can’t imagine anyone would do it just cause they like possum though.
