I had it when I was in Ft. Myers, Florida. It tastes kind of like chewy, shrimpy-chicken. It had a crunchy coating, was deep fried, and was served with a spicy mayonaisse sauce. It was pretty good for "novelty" food.

Hmm.. My father ate snake and frog legs when he was in the Navy, but I don't know anyone who's eaten Crocodile. I bet it's tough and chewy because of all the muscle.
