The Petit Gris snails are raised on a diet of wild foraged greens like dandelion, burdock, clover, sorrel, and others. Two weeks prior to processing, they’re finished on a diet of herbs like mint, basil, dandelion and tarragon. Those herbs become prominent nuances in the snail’s ultimate flavor profile.
