He takes his fork and slowly pushes remaining grains around idly. ]
Wow. Here I thought that might freak either one of you out a little bit. Heh.
[ Roland tilts his head to the side slightly, in thought. ] I...don't know how big the snails in your world got, but the regular sized snails from earth were cooked in sauces while the meat was still inside the shell. I've had it once or twice when I flew abroad for diplomatic missions. Had to get someone to teach me how to eat it, unless I was ready to embarrass myself over the dinner table.
[ Though if that wasn't the freakiest thing on a plate they've heard, maybe it's something else? He stops scraping with the utensil and rests his hand under his chin again. To more important matters - ]
So how big did they get? [ He asks for both his and Inigo's sake at this point, curious eyes watching Tidus. ]
