turkey leg!

One of my indulgences when I lived in the United States were theme parks.  There wasn't a year when I didn't travel to Florida and go visit Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios, Disneyworld, Sea World and the water parks.  Almost always, I would only have enough moolah on the budget to spend for admission to the parks, and some money for food.  Being on a tight budget had me spending on sensible food, and not on whims.

Well, a totally different thing happened last year. My cousin (in NY) and I went on vacation with family in Central Florida (Kissimmee, Orlando area), and we went to Tampa for a couple of days.  Our family treated us to free admission tickets to Busch Gardens, and for the first time, I was able to buy something to eat out of curiousity!  We got turkey legs!  It's not like chicken legs that are soft and easily eaten.  These are huge drumsticks of meat, with a lot of connective tissue that sometimes gets in between your teeth.  I wouldn't say I hated it, but I wouldn't say I liked it either (Althought the photo doesn't look like I didn't care for it much.)  I guess turkey leg is a bit of an acquired taste.
