Bats are good again and delicious.

I heard through the grapevines that it was an experiment (CCP VIRUS) that got loose, with that being said.

Bat lovers rejoice;

It's back on the menu, and I was like holy crap, I gotta get some bat recipes, so I google: Bat recipes.

Everyones favorite comes up first of course;

Bat Soup: How 2 Trap and Cook Bats the Humane way.

Place the bats (still alive) in a large kettle and add water to cover, ginger, onion, garlic and salt.
Bring to a boil and cook for 60 minutes.
Strain broth into a second kettle.
Take the bats, skin them and discard the skin.
Remove meat from the bones and return meat, and any of the viscera you fancy, to the broth.
Heat.
Serve liberally sprinkled with scallions and further seasoned with soy sauce and/or coconut cream.
Makes 4 servings.

The bat's orphaned son grows up wealthy, wears a suit to appear human...

...fighting crime in Batropolis... he's Manbat!

Manbat will not rest, until he avenges the boiling of his parents...

"To the man-cave, Manbat!" shouts his trusty side-kick, Emokid... and, yes, he drives a Manmobile...

Martha's bat wing recipe uses chicken wings.

Ok, call them Bat wings when they are served at Halloween parties.

The same could be said for lobster and frogs.

Don't eat bats. They eat lots and lots of mosquitoes... among other #ty insects, and well # mosquitoes.

I would try the fruit bat...those guys get big and meaty, but I suspect it would be very gamey...even if their diet is loaded with sugar.

Once you cook something, any diseases it had typically are dead. (not the case for prion diseases of course..thats the scary stuff)..so just make sure to cook it up well before serving

Frogs sure, but lobsters aren't quite as advanced in the sensory department. They don't experience boiling quite the same way we would. Not saying it's a great thing for them, but it's not the same either.

Many types of bat, such as the baseball variety, are completely inedible.
