Hi,

I'd like to take revenge on my garden slugs by eating them. Are land slugs edible? I've read that raw ones can give you diseases/whatnot but soaking in vinegar and deep frying is the way to eat them. What's the truth about this? Any experts out there? I live in the northeastern US.

I have been researching this question for a long time. I finally found what I consider a reliable source--no conjecture or "friend-of-a-friend" stories:
