Why do people eat snails but not slugs?

Question

As far as I’m aware people don’t eat slugs, but snails are widely eaten. What’s the difference? They both look the same basically but I’ve never heard of slugs being eaten, at least in the same way snails are ate

Slugs can give you brain parasites, and their texture is so unappetizing no one cares to farm them
