So I knew my roommate Gary but not that much - just from being in the same classes. First night (I kid you not) a buddy of his, who is a Gainesville native, brings over turtle and they cook it along with other ingredients to make a stew. Sure I tried some and it was actually very good.
And that's the first and last time I ever ate turtle.

And you could've just popped over to The Yearling near Hawthorne and had it. The Banyan Tree down in Tampa used to serve it too.
Or hung out with the old black people fishing in Bivens Arm on 441, they liked their turtles as well.
