Best Answer

Helix pomatia, known as the Burgundian or 'apple' snail, the most common, meatiest and most palatable snail, was found originally in eastern France. Heliculture, the 'ranching' of snails, was first practiced by the ancient Romans, who spread their cultivation throughout Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. Consumption of 'wild' snails must be done with caution, since much of the materiel consumed by free-range snails is already, or can become, toxic. Feral snails fed with cold cooked oatmeal will purge themselves of any inimical waste after 48-72 hours, although some snail gourmands maintain some of the more complex flavours are lost, thereby. Chacun a son gout.
