German butcher puts raccoon on the menu

For some, the raccoon is a cute personable rascal – for others, a ubiquitous pest. But now it’s also a sausage – having found its way into a German butcher's shop.
Michael Reiss first came up with the idea after being asked to represent his district for Berlin's 2023 agriculture fair, The Green Week.
Eager to show what his skills could do and showcase his region, Reiss came up with the idea of the raccoon meatball, to glowing reviews.
