So I never actually knew this but apparently eating offals is considered to be gross in other countries.

Can you explain why? Is it a "I never tried it but I don't like it" kind of thing or do people just genuinely dislike it

Kindey's and hearts are actually pretty good if cooked correctly. I like to make chicken heart curry stew. Slow cooked for 5 hours.

Probably some old class system bullshit. I know that around here there was a time when lobster was considered poor people trash because they were seen as sea insects. Time passes, and now they're an expensive commodity that poor people can't even afford. Funny how things change.

Depends on which country.
Here in italy, every region has its way of eating offals, where I live ve ground llivers, lungs, hearts and kidneys with parsley, garlic and other spices, then we wrap them in the intestines of the animal.
Kinda like an offal sausage, only that instead of pouring the content in the gut, we wrap the guts themselves around it.
Delicious.

some older people don't like eating offal because it reminds them of being poor when they couldn't afford meat. hipsters seem to be eating more offal lately though.

it can be pretty bad if prepared incorrectly, but i like liverwurst and if i have a whole chicken or turkey with the offal inside i just chop it all up, bread it, and panfry then eat with mustard which is nice.

>> No.11789923

>>11789881
you are already eating offal when you buy sausages. They have just been ground up. Well washed and well prepared offal has no stinky smell anyway, and the texture is really nice. Like springy but very tender meat.

my favourite offals are pig's small intestines and stomach and occasionally beef tripe. Cant stand liver though, unless its duck or goose liver.

You cant possibly be this misinformed about basic human physiology. Every tissue in your body constantly generates waste which is either metabolized and/or excreted.
>>11789427
Offal doesnt strictly refer to the colon you idiot. Even if it did you still wouldnt have a point given that you can drink urine without any ill effects for the purposes of this point.
You are either a typical dipshit who claims to not like something without having tried it or you claim to not like it on principle without being able to explain the principle, so still a dipshit.

I like liver, tongue, heart, gizzards, testicles, and sometimes kidneys. It's a very very seldom indulged food, though, and has to be prepared well.

Lamb fries (testicles) are incredibly delicious. They're almost like fried clams, but no worry of seafood contamination. And because an animal will want to keep as many toxins away from its reproductive organs as possible to prevent mutations, they have no risk like other organs.

i grew up in a family where we did not eat offals, except my father eating liver a few times a month.
but lately i've been to urguay and there we had an asado with beef in all varieties along with heart, kidney, brain, liver and intestine. I never tried something like this, but i gave it a shot, and it all was pretty good. I would not cook it at home, most likely, because i did not grow up with it and dont know how to cook it, but if i am somewhere, where this is offered to me, i would not say no.

The only places where offal is typically consumed are those that are poor or have been poor/famined until recently, although of course, there are notable exceptions, like duck liver. This is obviously because in times of scarcity it is stupidly wasteful to throw away half of the consumable parts of an animal. As such, eating offal is the sign of a pleb, or more likely, a shitskin.
