All natural, no preservatives added, sweetened frog popsicles! Yummy!

I'm not even joking about this -- since frog legs are a thing people eat (taste kinda like chicken), I'm now incredibly curious what this would taste like if you "caught" these in their frozen state and cooked them.

Are we taking syrupy sweet meat? Or just a hint of it?

According to the video in https://shakerlakes.org/frozen-frogs, it's also full of urine. Not sure if any left after the cooking process.
