: Wow! What an interesting friend to have! And you sound interesting yourself--having survived on lizards at one time (let's be honest, how many folks can say THAT!)
They taste just like chicken! The rice we cooked in a "bamboo" pressure cooker. A good size bamboo tree has chambers and the chambers can be used to cook with. And there is something called "heart of palm" which is easily found and edible, but I don't recall these TV survivers eating.
I had my heart dead set on a wild boar, for the meat and the tusks (like Luther Billings in South Pacific. The boars were too big and they tore up (and down) all our snares.
Had a friend once in some backward country who tried to survive on Gerber's baby food. Near killed him and he go hepititis anyway.
