Snail meat has been consumed by humans worldwide since prehistoric times. It is high in protein (12-16%) and iron (45-50 mg/kg), low in fat, and contains almost all the amino acids needed by humans.

A recent study has also shown that the glandular substances in edible snail meat cause agglutination of certain bacteria, which could be of value in fighting a variety of ailments, including whooping cough.

In Ghana for instance, the bluish liquid obtained from the shell when the meat has been removed is believed to be good for infant development. The high iron

content of the meat is considered important in treating anaemia.

In the past, it was recommended for combating ulcers and asthma. At the Imperial Court in Rome, snail meat was thought to contain aphrodisiac properties and was often served to visiting dignitaries in the late evening.

In West Africa, snail meat has traditionally been a major ingredient in the diet of people living in the high forest belt (the forested area other than the savannah forest).

In Côte d’Ivoire, for example, an estimated 7.9 million kg are eaten annually. In Nigeria it is clear that demand currently outstrips supply.

The Market

Snails are gathered in the wild, packed into bags, wooden crates or baskets and transported to selling points along main roads or to urban centres.

The most common species sold at the roadside in West Africa are snails, duikers, brush-tailed porcupines, hares and grasscutters. Snails and grasscutters fetch the highest market prices per kilogram.
