I ask Grok and it is not to promising.
It appears that democrat over regulation and lack of organization are the issues preventing the chicken of the trees from being eaten alot.
Could the cold weather stunned iguanas being picked up in florida be given to homeless shelters to cook for food for the homeless.
No, the cold-stunned iguanas being picked up in Florida are not realistically being (or likely to be) given to homeless shelters for cooking and feeding the homeless. Here's why, based on current practices and realities in Florida as of early 2026.
Green iguanas are an invasive species in Florida, and during cold snaps (like the recent one in late January/early February 2026), they become "cold-stunned" — temporarily paralyzed and falling from trees due to low temperatures. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) issued a temporary executive order allowing people to collect and transport live cold-stunned green iguanas (without a permit) to designated FWC drop-off sites. There, they are humanely euthanized or sometimes transferred to permitted individuals (e.g., for live sale or control purposes). Hundreds were dropped off during this event, with no reports of them being redirected to food programs.
While iguana meat is edible and consumed in some cultures (often called "chicken of the trees"), and some Floridians hunt, process, and eat them (or even make things like iguana pizza during cold snaps), there are significant barriers to using these specific stunned iguanas for homeless shelters:
Health and safety risks — Wild iguanas commonly carry Salmonella and other bacteria/parasites. Proper handling, slaughter, inspection, and cooking are required to make the meat safe, but these collected animals are often euthanized en masse by wildlife officials without food-grade processing. There's also a risk of poisoning (though illegal, some nuisance iguanas are poisoned before collection).
No organized donation pathway — Collected iguanas go to FWC for euthanasia or permitted uses. There's no evidence or program routing them to shelters, food banks, or charities. Some individuals eat them personally, but not on a scale for donation.
Logistics and regulations — Food for homeless shelters must meet strict health codes, USDA/FDA guidelines for meat, and sanitary processing standards. Wild reptiles don't fit standard supply chains. Homeless services focus on donated or commercially sourced food (e.g., canned goods, prepared meals) rather than exotic wild game.
Practical issues — The iguanas are often in varying states (some dead, some reviving), requiring immediate humane handling. Processing large numbers into safe, palatable food would need specialized facilities, which aren't in place for this.
In summary, while the idea could theoretically help control an invasive species and provide protein, it doesn't happen in practice due to safety, regulatory, and logistical hurdles. Some people do eat iguanas they hunt themselves, and the FWC encourages humane removal of the invasive species, but mass donation to shelters isn't occurring or feasible based on how these cold-stunned iguanas are managed.
makes me want to think twice donating anything to a place like that. they could have said no we can't use it and it could have went to familys in need or something. i guess it was democrat made red tape that prompted the response
Perhaps in a roaster with mixed vegetables iguana stew sounds delicious

The main reason it became as popular as it was, aside from the cheap price, was marketing. Quality, body, and flavor has had absolutely nothing to do with why it was at the top of the heap. It’s effect beer; people drink it for the effect, not for the taste or mouth feel.
And then, they had to promote up a Peter Principle candidate to head the Bud Light division, someone who thought she was smarter than anyone else in the room.
Anheuser-Busch got what it deserved when it entrusted the fate of perhaps the most profitable product in their line-up to a 4th wave feminist social justice hack.
She was definitive proof that education does NOT equate to intelligence.
Calling is “beer” is like calling a Yugo a “car."

I drink bud light because I want the lesser calories to keep up my figure unlike all the fat beer belly guys that drink bud
Moderate beer consumption tend not to cause problems, including hormonal imbalances in men, but excessive consumption can cause hormonal issues, including gynecomastia in men.
Plus, beer contains a lot of sugars, too. Not all the sugars are consumed by the yeast during fermentation. Yeast begins to die off when the alcohol level reaches around 12-15% ABV.
Diabetics should not be drinking beer.
I’ve always labeled myself as a “cheap date”….. I’m a cheap date because I limit myself to 2 beers. Seriously, 2 beers and I am “loopy”. I’ve loved the taste of beer ever since I was a young girl. A hundred years ago I recall my Pops enjoying a cold beer on a hot Saturday afternoon after he mowed the lawn. The glass was icy cold and contained this golden liquid with a frothy head. Sometimes I would ask for a taste and from time to time he indulge me. Pure YUM! On my river cruise in Europe, while in Germany I was excited to try their beer….. oh my goodness, they serve beer chilled to 38 to 40 degrees F. Yuck!
I understand why I get loopy on 2 beers, it’s because I enjoy the taste and when it’s icy cold, it goes down so easily. There’s no “nursing” beer for me, no siree Bob! And I do prefer to drink Michelob Ultra for the same reason Cody8789 likes to drink Bud Light, less carbs, less calories.
Sadly, my beer drinking days are over. I have to limit anything made with wheat or barley to hardly any, because is makes me hurt all over. I can’t even drink bourbon anymore, and I love a good 80 proof bourbon.
I’m trying sake now, and I’m going to see what rums and tequilas do for me. Wine is fine, especially reds. I love a good cabernet!
BTW, why do go here?
“-Busch got what it deserved when it entrusted the fate of perhaps the most profitable product in their line-up to a 4th wave feminist social justice hack.

I don’t understand why a product should be denigrated just because of its spokesperson. To me it proves your last sentence.
I’m just saying.
Where were you when she said she was actively trying to take the masculinity out of the product? She all but said the image portrayed by the product represented “toxic masculinity,” as if her toxic feminism was any better.
And, why the fuck do you even care? Every time someone has a differing opinion on every petty or trivial little itsy-bitsy subject, there you are, arguing a pointless argument, as if your opinion on every little goddamned teeny-tiny lame-ass subject on the planet is the only one that matters. Don’t you have any hobbies, or is this it?
Jeezus Horatio Christ!
Yes. This is one of my hobbies. It’s where I go to rub people like you the wrong way. 🤣🤣😈
Well, your sad existence does have some meaning, I guess. If you’re here, you’re not standing in front of cars on some city street somewhere cold right now. At least we can be thankful for that.
Keep nit picking. It gives you something to do.
Okay, I didn’t like what you had to say so, now, anything I say or said is stupid or petty. Some hunk of man you are, but, I bet that if you ever get kicked between your legs, nothing will happen.
Now, Look@nothing2, you don’t know me and you will never know me so, you don’t get to address me as “honey”. You can address me as CAT, Cat52! Or even as Candy, but I’m not your honey under any circumstances.
Cry me a river, Karen. No one asks you to butt in with your negative commentary. No one has ever asked you to “correct” their opinions, but there you are, every time, Ms. Annie Buzzkill, inserting yourself with your self-righteous attitude, as if your opinion is the only one that matters.
And, not surprisingly, you’ve whipped out your misogyny card and are waving it around, yelling, “Woman hater! We have a woman hater over here!”
I knew it was just a matter of time before you started crying “woman hater” simply because you have no valid arguments.
Leftist, thy name is predictability!
You’re nothing more but an overblown Socialist troll with an inflated sense of self-righteous moral superiority.
As for me, I think it’s hilarious that you get an eyeful of the head of my ERECT PENIS every time you post another one of your patronizing comments in answer to any one of my posts! That’s my dick you’re forced to see every time you feel compelled to get in the last word!
LOOK AT MY DICK! LOOK AT IT!
Now, I’m ready for your next post, an ad hominem attack about penis size or some other random characteristic of mine, because that is the fallback position Leftists always go to when they have no valid counterpoint to make!
Fire your best shot, Karen Buttinski!
Piece of shit socialist commie car.
Didn't take much to strip them out. THe cars are so pitiful they are cute
Unfortunately, the battery had leaked acid on the front suspension, which broke off during some harsh braking. Then the car steered to the right when the accelerator pedal was pressed and to the left when the brake was pressed.
I asked my dad if he could weld it all back together, but it was too big of a mess.
I was very sad about it, when we dropped it off at the scrapyard.
Skunk beer is beer that is either old or has been exposed to heat or light. Think Miller High Life in the clear bottles.
Not all Continental lagers are immune to that, either. Pilsner Urquell in the green bottles gets skunky after a while.
