POSSUMS AND SWEET POTATOES

WAS A SUNDAY DINNER

Upon reading this article, it reminded me of a conversation I had with my Aunt about Possums. One day my cousin and I was walking through the back words of the Eastern area of Birmingham, and we saw a Possum. My cousin and I ran home and told my Aunt and she and a friend took a flash light to blind the anima. They captured the animal and brought him home and cooked him. It was dusk dark and I guess he was coming out to hunt. This is one animal I will not eat, however, back in the day and during the depression, may family ate a lot of them for their meat.
