6. Ask my parents.

Okay, I do know, it's a wild west family surname turned into a first name.

The guy I'm named after wasn't really a hunter either. He was a U.S. government surveyor. I'm sure he ate plenty of wild things, but it wasn't his occupation or recreation.

I will hunt or fish if someone is really hungry. I know how to cut up a fish or chicken for dinner. And I confess to having a liking for mackerel and mussels fresh out of the ocean.

Other than that I mostly eat plants, fermented plants, a bit of cheese, and mushrooms.

Maybe I witnessed too much of my parents, grandparents, and great grandparents cutting up dead animals I'd seen alive for dinner.

One of my great grandmas was a very scary woman when she was holding a knife.
