Comments: Road Kill

Head cheese is not the worst though. How about zungenwurst Notes: This German blood sausage includes pieces of pickled tongue or tongue loaf Delis often stock loaves of pork, lamb, veal, or beef tongues that have been cooked, pressed, jellied, and/or smoked? There is also Sulze which is like headcheese only made with more body parts.

Because I couldn't remember how to spell sulze

I googled headcheese, don't go there. There is also a strange film of the same title.

A friend and I were just talking about gross meat products that we were fed as children but wouldn't dare touch now. My worst was scrapple. Hers was (and I can't even type this without getting goosebumps...) cracklins.

In my late teen years, I helped my Grandma make head cheese--only we called it (gulp) Souse Meat. Oops. Sorry for the little dry heave.

Don't be messin' with cracklins. Thems good eating.

I was married to the son of a former butcher. Let me just say this: Never, ever, will I eat another hot dog (except at Wrigley, because somehow that doesn't count). And sausage? You want to make your own. Trust me on this one.

Headcheese is just visible grossness. Sausage and hot dogs hide the nastiness. EEEEWWWWWw.

I read that Viggo Mortensen ate roadkill out of desperation. Do you think he ate headcheese?

If you ever come to LaLa Land, Bill, I am just going to have to take you to Grand Central Market. Out here we have a delicious dish called Menudo which is a tripe soup. Restaurants advertise that they serve it with pride.
