Let them eat …. liver

Im sure it was in response to a question about how people are supposed to follow the food pyramid when grocery prices are so high.

[Axtremus]

Food affordability is arguably a legitimate public health concern.

I also like liver, just cannot have it too frequently due to its high cholesterol content.

I like chicken liver. Pork not so much. Unless it's in Braunschweiger form.

[Renauda]

No way.

I eat liver once a year. My daughter takes the turkey livers out of the Thanksgiving turkey and cooks then up with onions for breakfast. A father-daughter once a year treat.

Liver for whatever reason, always initiates my gag reflex. I simply cannot swallow it. I think it is a combination of taste and texture.

If left with liver as an alternative I would gladly live on a diet of beans. Never met one I didn’t like.

Sorry to hear they. Does that apply to foie gras too?

I eat leberkäse every time I’m in Bavaria and was happy to learn that though the name means ‘liver cheese’ it has neither liver nor cheese.

You’re essentially eating bodily oil filters.

It seemed so at the one time I tried to eat some. Most embarrassing.

I like foie gras. Also the Jewish version chopped liver

But in reasonable amounts. Yes a lot of cholesterol. But also huge amounts of iron from all the hemoglobin. So great for anemia.

Foie gras terrine might be the best thing I ever ate. Took a week to make it. Thomas Keller recipe.

Feels a long longer to the duck.

Chicken livers wrapped in bacon is a favorite T-Day appetizer for me, and I have no problems with a fried beef liver with onions, though it has to be warm.

I like pig liver soup. Other livers, not so much.

1. Do you eat the liver in the soup as-is or with a bit of soy sauce?

2. Try pig brain soup!

[Renauda]

The two of you are turning me vegan..

[Mik]

Yeah. I feel a sudden craving for legumes.

[jon-nyc]

Pass the tofu, Renauda.
