Whilst queueing at the till at Sainsburys, I heard one old lady telleng another she got 'Tripe and Onions' for her old mans dinner.
Fuck that!! If someone served ME that bilge, it would be up the wall.
Any forumites beat that for a sunday dinner from Hell?
Oh, its not as if she was skint judging by the Sherry and Advocaat in her basket!!

I loathe it too, but the French assure me that, properly cooked, it's delicious.
Yeah.
Right.

Snails, lightly sauteed in garlic and herb butter? Yum, at any time of the day.
A cow's stomach-lining, braised in milk with onions?
Eeeuuuuurrrrrrggghhhh......even the smell makes me retch.

Hence the expression
Your talking utter tripe/bollocks/shite
Says it all to me
Wasn't Tripe conceived during times when meat was virtually non existant
or too expensive except for the upper class twats
When things like ham were a once a year treat for Christmas

Black Pudding, Haggis to name two.......never had them but just the thought of it......!!
Has anyone ever had tongue?......I have a few times......why eat an animals tongue........? Funny thing is I've not seen tongue sold for along time.....no call for it now!
The French will use as much of an animal for cooking as they can. With pigs they will use the head,brains & trotters & of course they eat horse meat.

Haggis isn't bad. Rather dry, and an acquired taste, but palatable. Tripe, black pudding and the like, no thanks!
