Garden snails eat a large variety of green vegetables. I find that they enjoy fresh, crunchy lettuce a lot. It is amusing to here their crunching sounds as they devour their fresh, green dinner. I put some carrots in there before, too. They do eat them. When I examined the carrot after, I could see small bits of carrot eaten off along the sides. However, I find that the garden snails eat lettuce easier. I tried feeding them cherries, but they strangely wouldn't eat them.

What don't garden snails eat?

Well, I think garden snails don't eat a lot of things. On the other hand, garden snails DO eat green vegetables for sure, though I find that they do eat carrots a lot too. They probably won't eat these things (I will only list a few):gumcerealmeat of any kind (they're vegetarians)milkcandyetc...These garden snails pretty much won't eat anything that we can't eat. If we don't eat glue, garden snails don't eat glue. It makes sense, right?Garden snails don't eat anything but what you would find in your garden, no hot dogs or gum. I have only given my captive garden snails: lettuce, cucumber, strawberries, spinach, and carrots. Garden snails shouldn't eat any kind of citrus or any manufactured food, or food that was made people and planted by people.

Can you eat garden snails?

yep I researched this question and found that yes you can eat garden snails, although they are not the most recommended snail to eat. Helix aspersa (small grey snail) and Helix pomatia (or Roman snail) are more popular. You can use garden snails from your garden, but snails from your supermarket in case the snail has any pesticides that could be harmful. If you prepare your Helix Aspersa (Garden snail) the right way then you can definitely eat it. I hope I helped you!
