⭐ Kiki's Year Long 🌶️

It's not exactly ancient. 150 years old, I think? They were imported from CA. I remember visiting the grove in Rotorua and thinking that it smelled like home. The paths are attached to the trees, but very carefully so they don't damage the trees at all. I went during the day, but they have lanterns that would make it a neat place to visit at night, I think.

Yes, it’s certainly not “ancient” in terms of the forests in CA, but still quite older than us. Seeds were imported there in 1901 as part of a program after the volcano happened.

Invite it to dinner.

According to the Google, rock chucks aren't good eating. I don't know if I want to test that for veracity.

I should say after they dealt with having several natural disasters there…I’m sure you still know what I mean anyways.

Lol….Don’t do it.

They probably taste horrible unless they’re deep fried.

Google gives lots of bad information. Rock chuvks are good eating. I couldn't tell the difference in taste between a rockchuck and a woodchuck.

Cook them like a rabbit or chicken.

Ahh…I was thinking it would pry be best deep fried but if you say slow cooking is the way to go then I’m not going to argue with you.

I've never slaughtered a mammal before. I'd have to work my way up to it. I think I'd have to start with a trap to catch the thing. There's an entire colony about 100' away from my yard.

I pan fried them, sometimes just with salt and pepper and sometimes battered.
