if you eat & enjoy liver or kidney you may just wanna stop reading this, or not-
both liver & kidney are filters, I`m related to a award winning chef (seriously) & one day in his restaurant kitchen I asked what was sat in 5 or 6 large pots on the stoves? he replied Oh we`re doing a kidney special this week so we`ve got to clean all these before I can cook them :?:
I stood stupidly looking at him like he`d just spoken Swahili
he explained that liver & kidney need to be soaked to clean the - ahem- whatever- is in them to come out before you cook them, now, fortunately for me I detest both long before I had this conversation, so it doesn`t matter to me, but, looking at BBF`s comment on `food` reminded me, thought I`d share.
sorry Ray, just thought you all oughta know!

Steak, kidney and mushroom pie.....

Grilled chicken livers and liver pate (but never Pate de Foi Grasse)...

I am nearly 80 have eaten this since a child so either I am immune or they were very well cleaned. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I can stomach almost anything but cannot eat liver, brain and kidney. It is the texture and a bloody smell that does not seem to bother others.

Bollocks is something else you needs to avoid eating as you end up speaking them and usually through the anus which is something else to avoid consuming. :lol:

Some say "Liver, no meat is viler (anag)"

Stomachs are best to avoid as well due to the bleaching process and residual domestos left in the product. So goodbye haggis ;)

If we weren't meant to eat liver why did someone invent onions and faggots?
Steak and kidney? one of the best!
Tripe and onions in milk? Absolutely bloody awful, like eating soggy scabs in watery pus. Used to eat it as a kid but wouldn't give it to a dog now.

Pressed tongue, pigs cheeks, pork belly - clearly one man's meat is another poison. :roll:
