What flavor does turtle meat have?
According to legend, a huge snapping turtle contains seven different kinds of flesh, each tasting like pig, chicken, beef, shrimp, veal, fish, or goat. (Those who dislike the protein might characterize it as tasting muddy, filthy, mushy, or chewy.)

Is turtle meat or seafood?
Is turtle meat, seafood, or both? According to the Catholic Church, turtle is a seafood, however if you’re a real hard-liner, you should probably be careful because many restaurants will replace veal in turtle soup, which is obviously not a seafood.
