I worked with an old black man in Alabama. He was a real insight into another culture. He invited me over to his house for some possum. His recipe started with one possum of course, but evidently they are very fatty. His recipe's second big ingredient was at least two loaves of day old bread. They were way cheaper and soaked up more grease. You stuffed the bread in and around the possum and let it bake for a while, pulled that bread out and fed it to the dogs and than stuffed in more bread. If it was a big ol fat possum it might take three loaves.

I hope to never be so hungry as to try possum again.

He also would go fishing along the Alabama river. It was easy to catch a small fish he called sun fish that were the size of your hand. He would clean them of course but did not want to waste a morsel of fish meat. He would batter it and deep fry it whole, slap it between two slices of day old bread and bite in carefully. Then he would chew real slow and for 10 minutes pull a fish bone from his mouth. When he was done there was a little pile of fish bones left.
