Snail / Slak

When I was young, my grandparents had a basement where they would keep their food, since they didn’t have a fridge at that time. One day my grandmother was taking the soup out of the basement, making it warm and putting it on the plates. My grandfather started eating and all of the sudden he stopped, looked at his plate and yes, there it was, a big naked snail in his soup. He carefully took the snail, throwed it outside and kept on eating…. I almost had to vomit… Anyway, you can find it in my webshop :-)

Toen ik nog jong was hadden mijn grootouders een kelder waar ze hun eten in bewaarden, omdat ze geen koelkast hadden. Op een dag nam mijn oma de soep uit de kelder, maakt het warm en schepte het op de borden. Mijn opa begon te eten totdat hij ineens stopte, in zijn bord keek en ja hoor, daar lag het, een grote slijmerige naaktslak in zijn soep. Hij nam hem er voorzichtig uit, gooide hem naar buiten en at gewoon verder…Ik moest bijna overgeven….. Desalniettemin, Je kunt hem vinden in mijn webshop :-)

    Thanks so much for the snail. My brother in law is in a jogging group called “the trail snails” so this will be perfect for him.

    Loved the snail story! When I was a child I was served some chicken noodle soup (from a dry mix–Mrs. Grass) and as I was eating it, noticed mealy worms in it! Yuck!
    I often see these type of snails where I live. I wonder if they are the same slugs (just with a shell) that eat my flowers?
    Keep up the good work on the beautiful files. I enjoy your blog!

    Love your story about the snail in the soup! Ick! I don’t have an idea for the snail yet, but I just have to get him because of the great story that goes along with him. Thanks for the laugh. Carole
