Roadkill Cuisine: Hit By A Car, But Still Good Eatin’
from The Tom Gulley Show · host Tom Gulley
Would you eat a meal made from roadkill? It may sound unbelievable, but across America, roadkill cuisine has a long and surprisingly legal history. From deer and elk to wild turkey and even more unusual finds, thousands of people salvage animals killed on the nation's highways every year—whether for necessity, sustainability, or simple curiosity. On this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom explores the strange, controversial, and often misunderstood world of roadkill cuisine. Discover how different states regulate roadkill harvesting, where it's legal (and where it isn't), the surprising history behind eating animals found along the roadside, and why this unusual practice has become increasingly common in parts of the United States. You'll also hear about the practical, ethical, environmental, and public health questions surrounding roadkill consumption, along with bizarre true stories, odd traditions, and the fascinating intersection of food culture, wildlife management, and American history. Whether you think it's resourceful or revolting, roadkill cuisine is one of the most unusual food traditions you've probably never explored.
