Ham & Pineapple, Turkey & Cranberries, Pork Chops & Applesauce, ad infinitum.

prob'ly why I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce. And don't tell me it's a vegie--I know!

The only fruit I like on meat is ketchup, and maybe a bit of cranberry sauce on turkey at Thanksgiving.

whoa! have you been smoking crack again?

austere upper-middle class upbringing for me -no offal. (no private lessons either -my family were the poorer relatived of upper middle class

)

re making it for Brits: cocktail wieners in grape jelly? Does that sound even remotely like something you ate as a child? If so, you should have called NSPCC -not for the meat quality -which I think may be where your tangent came from -but the combination..... it's definitely in the maple syrup on bacon category.

Yeah, I don't reckon that's good either for the maple syrup or the bacon. While de gustibus non disputandum est, I don't, unlike some people, like syrup on the scrambled eggs either. It just plain gets in the way of the proper eggs experience. Custard's plenty good when it's sweet, but scrambled eggs don't need it.

I wish I had the courage to delve into the world of offal-cookery, beyond the obligatory chicken livers crostini...

A restaurant where I worked as a lad was famous for deep fried chicken livers. They were pretty good.

I've also had deli sliced tongue on a sandwich. It was pretty good too.

I think that's the limit of my venture into offal.

I had tongue soup at the student cafeteria in my study abroad program in Germany. It was a half of a tongue (cut lengthwise) in a bowl of broth. A little on the chewy side. And the taste buds were a weird texture in my mouth.

Had it sliced on sandwiches before too. It's just like any lunch meat then.

It's all about the texture. I will never eat a tongue. Ew.

French-kissing that which I am eating.

I've had tendon, tripe (and not just what they taught me in Religion class!) and liver. Had gizzard gravy...

On second thought, I've eaten a SlimJim, so I suppose I've eaten every bit of the critter whether I knew it or not.

Tongue used to be my favorite lunch meat at nana and Grandad's house when I was a kid..... until I learned it wasn't just coincidence that it sounded just like the word for the thing you lick with.

never ate it again. i think it was quite expensive too, because we never ate it at home...

I can't believe how clean this thread has stayed.
