Like many ingredients its more about preparing them right.

Its been 10 years ago since the Chinese restaurant my family liked was closed. We still talk about how absolutely amazing the frog legs where. Sometimes when eating asian we may even get triggered of a specific taste we recognize as must have been included with the frog legs.

Lots of garlic, umami and spring onion were pretty sure off but there not enough to recreate that disg.

Alligator is really underrated, absolutely delicious.

Got almost the opposite experience here. Liked frog legs almost as much as chicken, but found both alligator meat and alligator jerky offputtingly fishy.

Sichuan frogs legs are amazing.

Have had both frog and alligator. Honestly, both taste essentially like chicken.

WTF mate?

AHHHHHH MOTHERLAND!

But I am le tired

I thought that was just a Cajun thing, which still makes it (sort of) French.

In China they often cook the rest of the frog too. Spicy frog hotpot is pretty good but I find it a little off putting when you get a bony little hand.

Chicken already doesn't taste great unless you do a lot of stuff to it. Plain it's pretty boring. I can't imagine eating something that tastes similar with a lot more effort.
