Banana slugs are kinda yellowish, sorta triangular, and two to six
inches long (around here, anyway).  About a week after we saw our
first banana slug (having just moved to the Santa Cruz mountains
from roach-filled L.A.), my wife and I went to a local Szechwan
restaurant.  We ordered the curried eggplant dish, and what we
got was yellowish (from the curry), triangular, six-inch long
slices of eggplant, about the consistency one might expect a
slug to be.  It tasted OK, but neither of us could eat more
than a couple bites of it.
