Andy_Copland 0 #27 September 8, 2008 I tried pickled pigs feet, the taste was not too bad. It was just the texture that got to me.

hungarianchick 0 #28 September 8, 2008 I dunno about pickled ones, they look like lab specimens... Edited to add: I also strongly believe that only vegetables should be pickled...

pyrodude 0 #30 September 8, 2008 Check out this link. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/340224 I'm sure you can find chorizo wannabe variations, but that REAL chorizo flavor comes from the lymph nodes etc! I'm not sure whether the lymph nodes are checked by a pathologist for tumor or infection. Perhaps the malignant ones are more tasty! Check out the ingredients listed on the Farmer John and Jimmy Dean packages. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigra 0 #31 September 8, 2008 Well, if I read it correctly, the link you posted was some guy complaining about a cheap grocery store variation of Chorizo, NOT the "real" stuff. The flavor comes from the seasoning and the fat, and I am sure that some brands and even the fresh chorizo from the meat counter do contain questionable "by products", just like hot dogs and other sausages. But if you object, whatever you do, don't get fresh carnitas from your local Mexican grocery store! They pretty much use the whole pig! My boyfriend is particularly fond of the ears! I was born on the east coast. To this day, one of my mother's favorite foods is scrapple, and anyone who visits New Jersey knows to bring some back for her. Tasty stuff, but I know better than to read the label, and I'm just as happy that we only have it once or twice a year! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

birdlike 0 #33 September 9, 2008 Quote Don't believe everything you read on the internet. The last time I checked, the chorizo I buy in the store did not contain those ingrediants. I'm not sure where pyrodude gets his though. Heh--probably from the Mexicans who know their products will be sold to AMERICANS! Quote But, keep in mind that pretty much any ground sausage you buy will contain some icky stuff as "filler". I'll eat chorizo because its yummy. Hot dogs on the other hand????? I stick to hot dogs that are understood to be made with quality ingredients: Boar's Head, Hebrew National, and I'll dip down as far as Nathan's and Sabrett. (I love the Sabrett ones that snap--"natural casing franks." It's like eating meat wrapped in a lambskin condom!

birdlike 0 #35 September 9, 2008 Quote I must say though I used to enjoy a hungarian-style stew made entirely of pigs' feet. I loved the sticky quality caused by all the gelatin cooking out of them. I couldn't eat it now, I would probably get deathly ill... Better to just have a nice beef goulash over buttered egg noodles. Holy fuck, I am so hungry for that now!!Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone who says this food looks bad is a liar Sorry, there's something tan and fleshy-looking in the top center that (god help me) made me think of Hannibal Lecter butchering a vagina and serving it in soup.

jumpoutnow 0 #38 September 9, 2008 I have no room to talk. Last night {and many times before} I ate two bags of pork rinds. The largest pig organ. For those of you that wanna know..... It is the skin of the pig deep fried. Variations include seasoning with hot, spicy stuff and oil vinegar seasoning. I've been eating them for years! Yummy.People are crazy. Cuz there's more of 'em.
