I'd have to say that if you were hunting small game in the winter to survive, it meant you were poor. Most folks that hunt small game for food don't like being poor. Nobody that hunts small game for food wants to brag about being poor.

That's why your wife wants nothing to do with it now. It's a reminder of the "bad old days" when her family was dirt poor and couldn't afford store-bought food like everyone else.

You're waxing nostalgic about it, but I bet if you went out and shot a squirrel and cooked it up today, you'd say, "I can't believe we ate this $hit!" after one bite. You forgot about the miserable job of cleaning and skinning. You forgot about the gamey taste. You forgot about crunching down on the chunk of lead you couldn't find when you were cleaning.

The "bad old days" often have a way of becoming the "good old days" in your mind when you've been away long enough. There's a reason you don't live like that anymore. You didn't like it.
