No and I don't plan on doing so. At this point I am pretty much chicken and seafood 95% of the time in life.

I had some in an Indian restaurant. We had the same dish prepared with more than one meat, and it was so heavily spiced that I couldn't really tell the difference between the meats. I have eaten a lot of "weird" meats (rattlesnake, possum, racoon, alligator, turtle, cricket, ant, etc.), and I'm up for trying almost anything once.

In Peru, I had goat stew and it was really good. My only complaint was that there wasn't much meat left by the time the guys who'd been working construction all day had gotten their servings. It tasted like beef.
I also had guinea pig. Just a bite or two. Tasted like greasy chicken.

Yes I have eaten goat. On the spit (Greek) and in curries (Indian). I have cooked it myself on the BBQ before and told people it was lamb!!! It's quite similar to lamb, which we eat a ton of in this country. I was going to ask if it was similar to lamb but Meg already answered. I will eat lamb and I have had some that I really liked, but it isn't a favorite of mine. I would probably try goat. |

I think that is disgusting. immoral and also disturbing that you seem to say that with such pride. I'm an adult and I make decisions every day based not only on my likes and wants but also my morals and ethical beliefs. I have a right to decide if I'm going to eat a certain thing (particularly animals) or not and if I found out that one of my so called friends thought it was funny to lie to me about what I was eating - that friendship would be over.Tricking people into eating something they might have an ethical objection to is just wrong on many levels.Ooops, missed this the first time because I wasn't quoted in such a way that it notified me. I feel the need to explain and I guess come to my own defence. Firstly, I would never trick a muslim into eating pork, I wouldn't deliberately feed non kosher food to a Jewish person, I would never secretly slip chicken stock into a vegetarian's risotto. Goat is just like lamb, and most of the lamb dishes we enjoy here are traditionally cooked with goat in Greece and India. I'm sure that if people are happy to eat lamb and do so on a regular basis (which my BBQ guests were) then they would not have a moral or ethical objection to goat. But I take your point pjaye, a point well made with forthright vehemence as usual. Secondly, I'm pretty sure my son is not morally or ethically opposed to pumpkin, he's just an annoyingly fussy eater. That "trick" was more akin to the parents who hide spinach in their brownies. Lastly, I wouldn't really feed you crocodile if you came to my house. I was trying to be funny or clever or something - clearly I failed!! |

I have, at a Mexican joint, with my father years ago. They only had the goat once a week, and he made sure to take me that day. I resisted, but had a taste of his, and it was delicious.
I don't seek it out, because there are so many other yummy options, but I wouldn't say no if it were served to me at someone's house.

Although I am not that adventurous as an eater I would think that it would taste similar to lamb. I probably would try a little and then eat the salsa, guac and rice! Ha ha!!
