Hi Brian, Good question. It depends also on whether they are cooked or raw.
Raw slugs sometimes contain parasites. So if you ever feel the urge to eat
a slug or two, cook them well. Then it's a matter of taste I guess. Ps: I
once ate a wonderful lunch at a small restaurant in Stratford on Avon called
"The Slug and Lettuce". But that's another story. Bert in Olympia, WA

OK I have to ask this question, please trust me, I am being serious.
These land slugs, if you eat them, does anyone know if they are not edible
to humans. I had this come up in one of my edible plant seminars. I didnt
have a good answer?

Avril,
The orange slug is probably Arion subfuscus, an alien from Europe. There
are some color variations, some individuals being more brown than orange. I
find both color forms in my yard in Maryland.
