1/2/2006: Pig intestines



Happy 2006! Some of the photo haunts I chase for IotD just have thumbnails, such as the Sydney Morning Herald. Sometimes the thumbnails have an interesting texture that intrigues me into looking at the larger shot. And that's how we wound up with this:

Raw pig instestines seized by Singapore's Coast Guard in October. The smuggling operation was attempting to illegally import 232 kilograms of untreated pig intestines into Singapore from Malaysia.

You never know what people are going to smuggle, do you?

YUck.

Nah. Thems Chitlins. We up Nawth make stuff out of worse parts of the pig (commonly called lips and testicles), mix it with cornmeal mush, and call it scrapple.

You have not lived until you have eaten good scrapple. Cripsy on the outside, mealy on the inside. Ooooo, yeah.

I was going to visit the "Chittlin Strut" in Salley, S.C. one time while I was in the area. The smell turned us around before we got to the gate..... smelled like I would imagine hog feces would smell if you tried to cook it.
I also tried one that a guy I know cooked and brought to me... it tasted like it smelled. Like shit.
I would def have to be in a desperate survival mode to ingest these things.
I wonder why they wanted to smuggle them? Obviously the pig is sacred in Singapore. What a bum rap.... busted for smuggling hog guts. Yuck.

The restaurant I went to yesterday had several dishes with pig intestine in it.

And sea cucumber. And jellyfish. And "human pork", which I really hope was a typo of "hunan pork".

Pig intestines

You have to admit, it takes a lot of guts to do that.

A great deal of intestinal fortitude is required to make that your introductory post.

Welcome. I hope that this is a sign of things to come.

Only a gutless swine could want those pig intestines...

For a moment, I thought Slang had taken the IOTD on one of his recent market trips.
