Well, given that in the West Hills there are reliable reports of banana slugs the size of actual bananas (or bigger) that's a lot of protein "on the foot".

Hmm. "Farm"-raised banana slugs. Then a booth at the state fair with "slug on a stick" (breaded and deep fried like a corn dog). You *know* you could get some frat boys or the like to eat the first few on a dare. Then word spreads that they are actually kinda tasty...
