What Is The Most Disgusting Thing You've Ever Ate?

Lamb tongue is very tasty.  When I was married (my husband was Pakistani) we ate a lot of lamb tongue curry.  I prepared the dish often and it was my favorite.

It sounds tasty, Marie.

How did you prepare the lamb tongue?

I am sure its very healthy food. But for me the image is so important. And the once I have seen so far. I would say, looks just horrible.

I try to be a veggie girl. So this is the last thing I would consider. It looks just horrible, even when its boilded and sliced.

  Well at least I feel better.  I was beginning to think, I was a total pussy.  Its good to see there are some others that agree with me.

    I could never eat some of these things.  I did taste beef tongue
ONCE.  My mother was trying to convince me it was really good...NOT...  I took a bite, and spat it out.  I never tried her bright ideas again.
Some of the things she was good at trying to get the rest of us to eat were..  Tongue,  sweet breads, head cheese, and unfortunately
some other extremely "to me," disgusting delicacies.  My brothers and my dad too, if I remember right.  Were totally unreceptive..  If she
had those items for herself, she usually just bought a deli portion and ate it all herself...course she ate cold fried eggs from the fridge also..So maybe that should have been a clue? 
   We obviously were adopted...?  heheheh

Hey, sweetie!    How did I prepare the tongue?  It's so strange!  I haven't eaten one since the late 80s (when I divorced) but I remember buying lamb tongues from the Berkeley Bowl market where they were sold on butcher's styrofoam lined up.  Can you image small tongues (about 7 to a flat) lined up and covered with what looked like Saran wrap?  People thought they were gross and felt sorry for the dear little lamb.  I felt guilty for eating them too, but that didn't stop me from cooking up a pot of lamb curry once a week.   

To prepare them I boiled the tongues first before cutting them up into small chunks.  After the curry sauce was ready, I added the tongues and warmed them in the sauce so they could get a bit more tender.  Lamb tongues can be tough, but they are surely delicious.  I don't see them sold in the chain markets anymore.  I suppose if I wanted some I would have to visit a specialty market.  I miss them.

They don't look good, certainly.  I know where you're coming from.

Yes, I did the same thing when my mom cooked beef tongue for us when I was a kid.  I didn't like it at all.  I've been told that when we lived in Oklahoma I ate things like squirrel, rabbit (we continued eating rabbit after we moved here to California) frog's legs, beef brains sauteed in scrambled eggs and pickled pigs feet.  My father used to catch the small game, as he hunted to feed us.  At least we never ate possum.  The only "critters" I remember eating is rabbit and the pickled pigs feet.  Oh yeah, the beef brains are still a favorite but are almost impossible to find, probably because of mad cow disease.  I sure miss my beef brains and eggs: my favorite weekend breakfast.  By the way, I love head cheese, but I don't eat it very often.

I've not eaten this, but I found it online.
