What Are You Eating?

I didn’t even know about sauteeing until about 1997. Before then, all we had was pan-frying.
Yup…I fried them…I now sauté…
Brute should whack you over the head with some cast iron for all the joshin'
Parents tried serving Liver and later sheep brains to me and my brother, vomiting ensued with the latter, those kind of organ meats never happened again. Plus we started reading about Kuru and Scrapie and once you read that kind of stuff...(you know casual dinner-time conversation topics with immunologist dad and microbiologist mom)

Yessir! I’m more a fan of the smoother pate varieties but they’re all good to me. Just about out of my Mother Goose stash, time for a trip to Marvel Food and Deli.

yeah, brains, tongue, tripe, and eyeballs aren't really my idea of good eats... I won't even touch lengua tacos or menudo.
Like running aground occasionally, if you're not on a statin, are you really living life?Braunschweiger is as fine a cholesterol fix as there is
True. But glad someone picked up on my TIC comment.Brute should whack you over the head with some cast iron for all the joshin'
Apparently AI thinks pan frying uses more oil...
On Pumpernickel bread with Swiss cheese and mustard, pickles on the side. Kartoffelsalat if your really hungry.
This is the proper way to enjoy Braunschweiger, other ways are inferior, and lead to a less than satisfactory experience.
I had some excellent Braunschweiger this way while in Germany, but have to admit having some on crackers here at home, even on potato chips has been ok...

Meh, I just know i don't like certain things because they gross me out
A few years ago I used to spend a good bit of the winter steelhead season in my trailer parked over in Forks. We would fish all day except on Saturdays when a midday break was enjoyed to go into town and stop by Forks Outfitters. You see Saturday was fried chicken gizzard day at the grocery store deli and they were the best. I was told that they only did them one day a week because afterwards they had to change the oil in the fryers. 
I think I could stomach gizzards (no pun intended), but I lump them in with chitlins…I don’t seek them out, but would eat them if they were put on my plate…A few years ago I used to spend a good bit of the winter steelhead season in my trailer parked over in Forks.

Used to get the best pumpernickel at the Westside Market in Cleveland.Fun fact
Pumpernickel roughly translates to 'devils fart'
I said on rye, I think pumpernickel is a dark rye so we are still in the same zone. I like a marble rye if you can find one. Best of both worlds.
I eat it like my Russian grandmother and German grandfather did.
With butter on white bread. That was a staple in their house for our lunches and every dinner, regardless of the dish there were potatoes on the table. Let’s just say we never had lasagna at their house but ate a lot of sauerkraut there.
