That would have to depend on the food! I've always found it interesting when people assign animal names and characteristics to the things that they eat, so a recent blog post by Canela & Camino (in Peru!) about something as amazingly wacky crocodile bread really made me smile. According to the post, crocodile bread gets its name from its shape and texture, which absolutely makes me want to try it. Any baked good with the texture of a reptile sounds at least worth attempting.I've made tiger cake, named aptly for its lovely chocolate and vanilla stripes, and other gimmies that come to mind (candy and brands excluded) include pigs in a blanket, hush puppies, elephant ears and bear claws. Not a healthy bunch of dishes -- crocodile bread is definitely more appealing to me.
Anyone have an animal-inspired dish to share? Obviously, cooked versions of the animal don't count.
