Some people won't eat tongue because it came out of the mouth of an animal but have no problem eating eggs.

You’re not supposed to eat the shell

You’re not supposed to eat the skin of the tongue either.

It’s for drinking soup that is slightly too hot.

Bullshit, the taste buds are the best part.

Ate tongue once, truely i thought it tasted so good because of the taste buds. But i was a dumb kid. And still a dumb adult.

Most people dont know what a cloaca is.

How about the fact dogs will lick their asshole and then lick their fur. The same fur you will then pet and touch your face or food.

Lengua is great
Show threadParadachshundMar 14
Seconded. Anyone who’s afraid of it, try a lengua taco sometime. You will not regret it (and no it doesn’t look like a tongue once prepared).

I was at a farmer’s market with my mother, and there was a butcher there called “Raised Right”. We’d never bought from there before, but we looked at the menu and my mother got really excited when she saw they had tongue available. And I’ve got a pretty adventuresome palate, so I was down. We bought the tongue and cooked it up. Ate it with home-made tzatziki and stuff.

Pretty good. stuff. A touch bland, maybe, but you’ll never find a more tender meat. And it’s really cheap. I guess just because people are squeamish.

We got tongue from that butcher several more times. It became a pretty regular thing.

Time passed, we got too lazy to get up early to go to the farmer’s market. We got a hankering for tongue again and found one at Walmart of all places.

It was disgusting. Mushy and stringy. Not at all the same as the farmer’s market butcher. We never did a Walmart tongue again.

Probably to be expected. Walmart’s not exactly the place where you would expect to get quality… well anything, really.

I love tounge, its one of the best cuts of meat.
Show threadstarlingukMar 14
My mother didn’t know how to cook it, so she just boiled it without skinning it. It was so bad I never want to eat it again.
Show threadkittenzrulz123Mar 14
Go to a Jewish deli and try some proper tounge

You are not some people.

Although I guess you are a different some people!

Indeed, still thought I’d chime in.

My mantra has always been “don’t eat food that tastes you back”. No tongues, suckers or pseudopods!
Show threadhansoloMar 15
Some people are so ignorant about where their food comes from that they prefer processed food because it doesn’t remind them of having come from an animal.
Show threadAppoxoMar 15

I don’t eat organ meat period.
Not my cup of tea due to consistency.

And if I do eat it, I want to stay in blissfull ignorance and enjoy the taste.

Show threadyermawMar 15
Thats why we eat them in the anonymous burger/sausage form.

Proper hamburgers do not contain organ meat.

You do. You just don’t know it

I find tongues to be a great delicacy. They have a unique texture.
