We ate a lot of cotton tails and domestic rabiits growing up. I moved to New Mexico in 64. We were pretty poor. We use to go out east of Albuquerque and buy pinto beans for $12 a hundred and kill a bunch of jacks out near Estancia. We ate alot of beans and jacks

I still love a pot of ham and pinto beans in chili, but darned if I can choke down a jack.

It's sort of like all these yuppies bragging how good Spam is. Whe growing up in Appalachia and coal mines, you use to get govt.surplus food. One of the items wa scanned meat. It looked like a can of dog food. About the same as Spam.I don't eat it either today. I always have a can of Spam on a hunting trip. When I get down to where I would have to eat it, it is time to go home
