I don't eat any offal. No heart, liver, lungs, kidney, tripe, chitlins, or genitalia. Except in hot dogs and balonie, of course. Then I just don't think about it.
At least Euell Gibbons didn't lie, he said the cerial reminds him of the taste of wild hickory nuts. [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XJMIu18I8Y[/MEDIA]
You forgot Sweetbreads-There are two kinds of sweetbreads: stomach sweetbreads (also known as heart or belly sweetbreads), which are an animal's pancreas, and neck (AKA throat or gullet) sweetbreads, an animal's thymus gland. (The animal in question can be a hog or calf or just about any other large mammal, I gather.) They're called sweetbreads for the obvious reason that if you called them thymus glands or whatever you couldn't give the damn things away
I eat them quite often. Lots of restaurants around here have them for appetizers. some places have the rocky mountain oyster or calf fries and other have lamb fries. They are really good. Usually served with cocktail sauce.
that's what they were called. i coulcnt remember. i had them over at pete's place in krebs when i was little.
