Texas has a plethora of ghost towns that are ripe for exploring. One of those ghost towns isn't too easy to check out, though, because its at the bottom of a lake.
As for me, I appreciate the fact that some of these 'foods' aren't available or are out-and-out banned. In my opinion, some foods are potentially too dangerous and not worth the risk. Others are created or harvested in ways that seem so unethical, that consuming them seems beneath the dignity of otherwise caring, good-hearted people. Again, that's just my opinion.
If you're from Louisiana you've probably been asked more than a few of these by well meaning people who are just trying to learn a little bit more about us.
Have you ever heard anyone say "Wow...it's raining frogs, worms, and birds"? Probably not, but people have said it because it has happened...several times in Louisiana.
