Magnetic. It's bad for his pacemaker. I don't know where he really lives, if I did I'd have a house full of presents and helpful little elves.

True dat. I've always wanted to taste magical reindeer. I'll try anything once.

True, but they can be cross-reactive for those who have tree-nut allergies. Not all with tree-nut allergies will suffer anaphylaxis when consuming almonds, but some will.

I've heard the meat tastes like unicorn. Never imagined horse and deer would taste similar, but magical is magical. And they must have tasted divine, since we've apparently hunted them into [near] extinction.

One day, I'll get to throw a unicorn or one of santa's reindeer into the pit.
Which cut would be best? Never had venison or horse meat, let alone ever sampled the magical variety.

The cross-reactiveness is from an allergy to birch. It's called oral fruit allergy syndrome. I'm allergic to pitted fruits like peaches, cherries, etc..., and will have a really bad reaction if I eat almonds, but I can eat any regular nuts without a problem.
