HAHA! Maaan this is a real dang delight! Regarding your 'chitlins experience': just about anything can taste good with enough hot sauce... but I'll take your word on the chitlins... I think the trick is this: just don't be anywhere near while they are being cleaned and cooked. Come around only AFTER they are well done and sitting in a plate with rice and a generous amount of hot-sauce. Wonderful. I once read somewhere that in some places in Europe they are now a delicacy. Dang Europeans make any dang thing a delicacy. , just like I'm also not going near scrapple... Awwww maaan, you betta git outta heah! Scrapple and maple syrup be da bomb! (Not sure if that is still current, but whatever....) I was once hunting big woods in PA when I came across a guy in the field. He asked if I needed help with my buck. We started talking and it turned out he was a pastor. We hit it off snap just like that, as if we were kin. Next day we're sitting in a restaurant and he orders scrapple for both of us. He pours some maple syrup (yes indeed!) on it and starts eatin'. That mess was awesome. You don't know what you're missing pal. Its been awhile since I've had it, but I eat it whenever I can. , and if I find myself in Scotland one day I don't think I'll be ordering the haggis. Ni dass some nasty stuff, depending on the recipe. I've had all kinds, both in Europe and here. I didn't like the European stuff nearly as much as I did the American version. I've had beef haggis here that was really quite good. I think, once again, part of the problem in Europe was that I was around the stuff as it was being prepared. You know, I dress game all the time, but I throw away stuff like the stomach and mess like that. Ain't much used to eating dang stomachs. So I'm familiar with the taste of smoked octopus Good stuff - love it. , whale blubber stew, [etc...] Yup. Very good.
