I like GOOD head cheese. It's only the meat from around the head.
I've always heard it's got lips and eyeballs thrown in there.
Used to like beef tongue when I was a kid.
Can't tolerate it now.

Have not had head cheese in a lot of years. Dad loved it. As to
Tongue, wife will not cook it, so I get Lengua a the Mexican
deli's I frequent. Along with goat. Berria. Just do not get
those things at the regular eatery.
We used to eat tongue and beef heart quite a bit. Both were cheap.
Five boys in the family, and they didn't pay Air Force sergeants much
back then. I've tried heart within the last couple years. Didn't like
it. I love liver though.

Mmmm, LOVE calf's liver. I used to hate it, but I found out that was
because that was the only thing my aunt didn't cook well. She fried
it until it was shoe leather!

Which is the common mistake. It should have a little pink on the
inside, as was pounded in my head by the chef in a German restaurant.
After I sent the liver back twice because I thought it was
undercooked, the chef came out and told me how Americans knew nothing
of cooking liver. So I tried it his way. Very good.

Yes indeed! A friend's wife cooked me liver the proper way once, and
I've loved it since. She also taught me how to make it.

Listen... As a good solid steak and potato Yankee, I can tell you, you
are just screwey..
Rule 1:
Any food that must be introduced as "good if you cook it right..." does
not deserve to be eaten. Included in this are bitter stringy greens,
parts of animals with the texture of baby poo, or anything where there
are poison parts that must be removed before eating.
Example: Bluefish... Everyone has a recipe to "make blufish acceptable
and even good"... but it is what it is. Either you like oily fish or you
don't, if you don't, don't eat bluefish..

I think your weird taste is from growing up too far from the grocery
store

Now off for some scrambled eggs and pancakes... Geeze... chitterlings
and grens... ugh...


Mmm, I like eggs! They're especially good with some good diced up head
cheese.....
