    I have had bugs, guinea pig, but never lizard. Was it delish? Would you have it again?

    I’ve eaten a lot of crazy things but never iguana. I’m a chef and would love travel to Central America just for stuff like this. Was it served totally boneless or did you have to kind of pick around at it? What other dishes did they serve?

    This is peak content for /r/streeteats, thanks for sharing.

    Hard pass for me… but go post this in the r/vegan forum and get like -500 karma in less than an hour lol.

    I can’t think of a good reason to eat iguana outside of a total nuclear war.

    Sorry but this looks a decomposed body

  6. Everything tastes either like chicken, not like chicken, yummy or yucky

  7. Nice! Here in Guatemala people cook iguana in iguaxte, I guess the flavors may be alike.

    OP are you visiting there?

    How is it? I am looking to come this weekend but I have never booked a flight in such short notice so scrambling to do research here. I will be there for about 5-6 days. How are things on the ground? Any things / experiences / place you would recommend visiting?
