Actually sounds kinda interesting to me
Granted, I'll eat just about anything, but these sound pretty good. Granted, the concept will either spark revulsion or pique interest. It's funny how we never want to think of our food as cute and cuddly.

I'd try it. I imagine the first few bites would be a mind game... like eating chicken feet but after the initial wave of holy-crapness... they might be good.

eeeeeeeewwwwww
and that's not even because it's cute food. I'm general repulsed by odd meat parts. YUCK

I'm not sure I could get past the image, but if someone told me that the mystery ingredient in my favorite brand of sausage were fried bunny ears, I'd say, No shit? Pass the mustard.

Theyir ears are mostly just skin, I doubt they have much flavor of their own at all... probably like gamey potato chips.

I might pass on the rabbit ears, but I'd love to check that out. So, next January when they start taking reservations for the year, we should call about a table of 4 or 6 sometime in the early summer, if possible.

Cool. I've always wanted to go to Barcelona to see Gaudi's buildings, so going to El Bulli would be a good excuse.

Think Mere will let you plan the honeymoon around deep fried cuteness? I think you should boycott them just because theyir web site is the most obnoxious one I've visited in years.
