You Ate What????
You Ate What???? I've always been pretty adventuresome when it comes to trying new foods, but tonight was a first for me. If you are into dining out or are a food network fan, you are most likely aware of the trend, to instead of ordering large entrees, dinner companions share a variety of small plates. Farm to table restaurants are serving locally grown plants and animals in interesting and tasty ways, wasting as little as possible. Which brings me to some of what I ate...in addition to the fairly common foie gras and bone marrow, one plate also had duck's heart and pig's brains...and omg were they deliciously prepared! So what do you think? What have you eaten that you thought you never would? Was it a delectable experience? |

I'll try most anything. I've been to some places where the "filet" was likely NOT beef or pork. More likely dog or cat but tasted alright. Also in a former life (euphamism) worked in a meat packing plant where everything's edible expcept the Mooo or Oink.

With all the travels I did when I was in the service, I am SURE I ate, horse, dog, cat, monkey and lord only knows what else. I even LOVE Taco De Lengua. Even had Cobra, not bad really. But not a big fan on the idea of brain or liver, but would try it. Why not?

My parents were both raised on Nebraska farms in post depression era. So I have had brains, Tung, heart, liver, and Mt. Oysters. I never cared for brains tho. Most of these were beef and not pork but have had brains from both.

Yum! I cook bone marrow all the time at home... for my birthday last month I had half a pigs head (minus the brain)... picking the meat off of it was quite visceral!! I don't know if I'd care for brains though... I'd try them of course, but more than likely I wouldn't like them. Good for you, I'm glad you liked them!
