Of course. The first thing I think about when I see a giant turtle is OM NOM NOM.

Funniest QI to date.

Makes me really curious what it tastes like! OMNOMNOMNOM

at about six minutes in i began to wonder if these things were just MEANT to be eaten.

Adding video to channels (British) - requested by Zifnab.

Wow, they're that tasty? They sure don't look it, but I suppose no animals do. Doubt I'll ever taste one, but it sure does make me curious.

This has me curious, I want to know what they taste like after hearing that description. Why haven't we domesticated them and have giant tortoise farms everywhere then?

At a guess, they probably grow too slowly to be profitable.

I have a necktie like the host.
