my 2nd time having escargot! Needa get rid of the 'i-am-eating-snail' thought, and i am getting more fond of it!!!! Did a search on escargot nutritional value and this is wad i got:

Food Value

A 1-oz. measure of escargot, before preparation, weighs around 28 g, according to the USDA Nutrient Database. Proteins make up about 5 g within this measure. There is only 1 g of carbohydrates and no significant quantities of fats in escargot. The remainder is indigestible components, other nutrients and water. One oz. of escargot meat contains a total of 25 calories. Proteins provide over 18 of those calories. Carbohydrates and fats both deliver 3.5 calories each. A 1-oz. serving of escargot adds 1 percent to the daily intake of calories for the average adult.

Benefits

Escargot contains some vitamins and minerals. The most substantial amount is of vitamin E. A 1-oz. serving contains 1.4 mg or 11 percent of the daily recommended intake of the vitamin. Lesser amounts include riboflavin, niacin, and vitamins A, B6 and B12. The same 1-oz. serving of escargot also adds several essential minerals to the diet. Snail meat is particularly high in magnesium at 70 mg or almost 20 percent, and selenium at 7.7 mcg or 14 percent of the daily requirement. Smaller quantities of other minerals, including phosphorus at 76 mg, copper at 100 mcg or 10 percent, and iron at 1 mg or 8 percent. Trace amounts of other minerals include potassium, sodium and zinc.
