How To Cook Lizard Eggs
In this video, I will show you how to find and eat the eggs of the Central Ohio Reticulated Lizard. The CORL is one of North America's most elusive reptile species, and finding an entire nest of its eggs is exceedingly rare. I've documented the process so that you can all share the beauty of this endangered, tasty creature and its eggs. The Central Ohio Reticulated Lizard's closest relative, taxologically speaking, is the Reticulated Collard Lizard (Crotaphytus Reticulatus) which is chiefly found in southern Texas. The Collard Lizard's eggs are bitter and generally unpalatable, but the specialized corn-based diet of the CORL engenders an egg with all the depth of flavor of roe (caviar), without the characteristic "stinky egg" smell of cooked chicken or duck eggs. Since there are only EXTREMELY limited numbers of this lizard, I have let my lawn grow longer and taller than usual, to encourage the local population to make it their home. Lucky for me, and for you, viewers, I chanced upon several of these eggs. The next time you are in central Ohio in the springtime, look around. If you see a bit of white popping out from an unmown tuft of grass, you too may experience the deliciosity that is the Central Ohio Reticulated Lizard Egg. And, in case you actually read this description, you should know that in addition to making these videos, I make DAILY comics at http://www.toothpastefordinner.com . They are awesome. I'm not even going to lie.
