Apparently they have both a very 'strong' odor and flavor.

They reek of pig shit. Which isn't exactly surprising.

The latter is present only in the large intestines which are rarely used as food for human. The chitterlings are turned inside out, cleaned and boiled, sometimes in baking soda, and the water is discarded. The chitterlings can then be used in a recipe.

Like I said... gross.

I get grossed out about shrimp which haven't been deveined.

well, back in the time of slavery, the people could not let even one scrap of the pig go to waste.
i grew up in maryland, the supermarkets back then (NO, not slave days!) had chitlins for sale in buckets for those who ate them traditionally.

They are also sold in grocery stores here. Still seems pretty gross though.

Of course, lots of things are gross.

My mom dated a black man after she divorced my dad. Long story short, we went to his family reunion and they tried to force me to eat chitlins untill I started crying and gagging. I went home and told my dad and he tried to get full custody after that. This is a true story.

Now I know what to think of when I want to get my mind off that fat burger I've been fantasizing about.

It's all fun and games till the white kid starts crying.

JB was alive during the slave days!!

Sally, that's fucked up ...

just for that, you're back to -1.

That's right up there with Lutefisk for me. Goddamn that's gross.

Know what else is? When I was married we had worked with this greaseball right off the boat. He'd always be killing some kind of animal or another in his basement to eat. One day I open the 'fridge to get something and there's a couple of sheep and goat heads staring at me. Totally freaked me out. These are things you don't see on a day to day basis in NYC!

I was very careful what I ate at that house from then on.

Wow, that guy was a real greaseball off the boat alright! I would have loved to have seen that ...

As if the chitlins were not enough, some crazy lady decided that I needed my hair braided and ripped out my hair and made me cry again. If was awful, I'll never go to another black family reunion again ::lol::

I have a pony's skull on my wall. Wanna guess where I got it from and how it came to be dead?

He also used to slice up testicles and put them in his pasta and made whips out of horse penises.

Just note this guy is from Bari. The Barese will eat damn near anything - If it moves, they eat it.

Christ that's gross. You have to be raised in some bad poverty to accept that shit. ::lol::

Nope... he's quite wealthy and comes from upper middle class family in Italy. He grew up on a farm there and this is what they did. He has a hard time letting that go.

Right now he lives in a million dollar home in Colts Neck, NJ and he still does this shit.

Jebus Christ!

That guy sounds like a potential serial killer, there weren't any missing children in the area at the time were there?

Well he is gross!

Just a typical Italian farmer who kept to his lifestyle even though he's living here, OP.

It's weird how many can't assimilate into a new country.

I don't think asking him not to leave animals body parts around the house is too much to ask.

I stayed in digs for a few months while I was at college and my roomate Damien had a nice habit of leaving uneaten food in containers under his bed. I will never forget the perpetual halo of flies that buzzed around his bedroom, plus he had a gross ingrowing toenail that was infected that he refused to do anything about. When he took his shoes off it was like being hit in the face with a rancid side of bacon.

I have yet to work out how he managed to get so much pussy at college, I would occassionally bring a girl back but he had a rotating harem.

Thanks. We needed to hear more gross and irresponsible metro fuck behavior coming from you.
