I voted other as I had a stew once of venison rabbit and pigeon. The nicest thing I've had in a long time. I'd make a clone of it in a put over a fire with bannock to mop up the gravy.

I don't know if you would count it as bush food but my favourite thing to collect and eat is prawns/shrimp. :)

As long as you haven't bought them from a shop then of course its bush food, anything wild, if caught or taken from the wild should be classed as bush food IMHO.:22:

I voted venison as my wife is the best venison cook ever! However, I agree that this pole suffers from the same problem as many others, lack of combined options. I would like to have voted for a stew of venison, rabbit and root veg as that really is my favourite, but I could't. Equally there are no veg options. Just a thought.:rolleyes:
