Can you imagine how good Smurfs must taste when Gargamel can't decide whether to eat them or turn them into gold?
-
Schlümpfe
The singular is "Schlumpf".
-
Yeah, maybe it was like a pest control bounty lol

Yeah, in general, eating carnivores isn't the way to go. Not only are they less wholesome nutritionally, but they can also contain more toxins because of their diet. Plus, they can't really be consumed easily at scale, because of the amount of energy they need to live.
Fish are an exception to this, but I'm not sure why. The fish we eat are mostly at least omnivores though

how many smurfs have you had in your mouth?

They're "Les Schtroumpfs" in French.

What is Gargamel ?
-
Interesting thought, however, Garmel was some sort of wizard. It’s more likely that he would perform the conversion himself.
Still, perhaps the cost of any necessary, reagents, or other ingredients required to turn Smurfs into gold were not worth the gold they produced.

It's about the journey, not the destination.

So this is a bit of a personal peeve of mine, so please don’t take it as an attack or argumentative, I’m just offering a perspective.
Generally speaking, gamey is a misnomer. Unless, if by gamey you mean “doesn’t taste like domesticated beef”, in which case you’re right on, but gamey itself isn’t a flavor.
Every meat has its own distinct flavor and calling something gamey just indicates that it’s not culturally normal for you.
-
I'd say what I think of as 'gamey' applies pretty equally to elk, deer, rabbit and squirrel (at various strengths), all of which I have eaten more than once. So I'm not sure that's true.
-
Don’t they sell Smurf ice cream in your country?
-
They do not. Not that I have seen, anyway.
-
He must have eaten at least one to find out how good they are, right?
-
Tastes like chicken

I think it's either Gargamel or Gurgelhals, depending if it's newer or from the comic books
-
Maybe cooking them is also a massive hassle?
He had a cauldron, sure, but I imagine preparing Smurf meat is meticulous with their tiny bones. Maybe turning them into gold was less of a hassle.
-
Cookery or alchemy, my point remains the same. I just think it’s possible that there is more involved in the calculus than we’re aware of.

„Šmoulové“ in Czech
