Nick Offerman Eats Raccoon in an Exclusive Clip from Twain’s Feast

You know Mark Twain the celebrated author, but do you know Mark Twain the glutton?

Nick Offerman, with the assistance of a chef and some friends, “presents the story of Twain’s life through the lens of eight of Twain’s favorite foods” in a new Audible Original. Titled Twain’s Feast, the audiobook uses the author’s life as a springboard to explore America’s culinary and ecological history—and to sample some amazing dishes along the way.

With Andy Beahrs’ book of the same name as a guide, Beahrs and Offerman “take documentary excursions across America, illuminating each dish and bringing to life a broad sampling of Twain’s writing.” We have an exclusive clip from one such excursion, in which Offerman eats raccoon for the first time. Listen below to find out if he’s a fan:
