Answer 2

Duck, deer, quail. The problem is finding exotic meats. I saw this show on food network where they made vegetarian "meat" by making a bread dough and kneading it under water until it became dark and hard (that's when all the starch "carbs" washes away) after that you roll it out and cut it how ever you want and cook it just like meat: boil, bake, fry whatever. You season it however you want it to taste (poultry seasoning if you want it to taste like chicken) I have been too lazy to try it so if you do let me know how it turns out.
