That's an interesting story. Several years ago I had something called smoked turkey tails. They were OK, a little fatty for me, but they had an interesting flavor. Once I started low carbing I got a craving for them, but couldn't find them anywhere -- no store within a 50 mile radius of me sells them, or had any idea of anyone who did. I did a little research and discovered that the U.S. sells its turkey tails to impoverished countries, and in some places they have become delicacies. I can't buy them here, where they are produced, because they are being shipped overseas. Kind of odd how that works out.
