Virani, while you're in SoCal go out on any grassy area in the early morning after it's been watered & you'll find dozens if not hundreds of the snails used for escargot. People catch them & keep then in small cages lined with corn meal for a few days, then turn them into homemade fresh escargot. Really? I've never seen even one in the wild up here! I guess they don't like the swim to the island. We get lots of slugs and night crawlers on our lawns. But I don't think they taste too good. All that slime and dirt.
