Nasty little scavengers. I mean clams filter water. Gross. You guys should be giving that stuff away.

Yeahh I found out quickly when I joined the military that not everyone squirrel hunts or has even heard of eating it at that, I’ve had people not believe that there are some people that eat squirrel lol
Lobsters are very much a scavenger. They will even feast on your dead body iffin it's floating around in the ocean. lol. I used to work the night shift cleaning the butcher shop at the Navy's local commissary. The butchers would put the lobster tanks from the store into the coolers when the store closed every night. If you ever get a chance, drop a meatball sized chunk of hamburger into a lobster tank and watch them go nuts and almost kill each other trying to eat it. It's a blast to watch.

Our Izaak Walton club did a wild game feed where they had things that would be super rare to eat in my area like raccoon and turtle, then rabbit and squirrel and bear, which weren’t common to eat but not unheard of, and then the normal duck, goose, deer, pheasant, partridge.'This is the place to be': The 95th annual Coon Feed in Delafield is back on after canceling last year due to COVID-19

Opened my mind a lot as a 10-12 year old kid.
The way I look at it, why wouldn't squirrels be good eatin? They're prey animals for a reason. lol. My wife however does not see it that way.

"Woman, It's chicken of the tree"
I got the same problem. Apparently saying. "The guys on the hunting forum say it's great" still does not give it a green light for the pan.
Take her and let her watch some chickens pick corn outta cow sh!t and remind her that's her mcnuggets. Skwerls eat pecans and acorns and such.
My wife is no city slicker. She knows what chickens do. She helps me cut up deer and her dad used to buy a beef critter to raise for slaughter every couple of years. She's the same way with rabbit. She says they look to much like babies when there skun out.Take her and let her watch some chickens pick corn outta cow sh!t and remind her that's her mcnuggets.
