Those are two good examples of parts of animals you can't eat.

Laugh.

Might as well have a side of hooves and beaks while you're at it. :-)

I'd had pickled pigs feet when I was in the southern US. Spitting out the
toe nails wasn't my favorite.

Hi Dumas,
In a message to Gamgee you wrote:

In the USA, they often are. True Canadian bacon, IIRC, is made from
back cuts, which are usually leaner, instead of belly cuts (like it
is in the US).

It's also rolled in cornmeal and called Peameal bacon. We buy the big
peameal chunks when they go on sale.

Oh, gawd. Wasn't sure it could get worse than liver/gizzards, but
apparently it can. Why on earth would someone want to eat that?

I will admit to having eaten "tripe" as my parents called it. Pickled
(?) cow stomach lining, I believe it is. When I say "eaten", I mean it
was more like "You're not leaving the table till that is gone". PTSD
takes many forms. ;-)

While I got to try real Canadian bacon while I was up there, I didn't find
a chance to try the peameal bacon. I was on the lookout for it. ;)
