ah! a snail in the wild is actually terribly toxic! I actually looked up how to cook them, as there were plenty around us in GERMANY!!!. anyway essentially you have to starve them for a week to get the toxins out.
going back to Colorado provided very few snail oppourtunities. just to dry. now in washington, their shelless cousins are everywhere and I haven't a clue as to the edibility of those.
