When opportunity knocks - Iguana pizza, would you eat it?

While cold-stunned iguanas are falling out of trees in Florida, some people are using the opportunity to cook up eclectic dishes.
Bucks Coal Fired, a pizza joint in North Palm Beach, whipped up an iguana pizza this week and posted it on Instagram. Franky, the manager, called it the “Everglades Pizza.”
Ryan Izquierdo, a local content creator, walked into the shop carrying dead iguanas in his arms and told Franky to make him an “iguana pizza now.”
Franky’s response? “(Expletive) no.”
Spoiler: He made it anyway.

Izquierdo took a bite of the pie and said it tasted “like frog leg.”
“It’s a little bit sweet. Can’t really describe it,” he added.
Vicente Dibripo, the shop's manager, told USA TODAY they're hoping to add the pizza to the menu in the near future.

Sarcasm. I don't like Dave and his shtick , but still, I'd like to see his expression if he ever had one offered to him.

I ate Cuban Rock Iguana in GTMO and its about like eating turtle. Not the same species as those in Florida but pretty close I imagine. Also ate Banana Rat and sun dried squid.

Down in Florida iguanas are known as "Chicken of the Tree" and a lot of people do eat them, much like the invasive pythons in the Everglades.
