Re: animal foods that are strange or even more strange.

[Guest guest]

I knew what the RM Oysters were and I have heard them called " sweet breads) 

and always has the " s " on it.  and was such a change from what I thought sweet

breads would be.  I think that is the southern term for them.  I am not quite

sure what chitlins are but the fried pork skin may smell bad but I sure used to

like the taste and so I'm not sure that chitlins are the same thing or not.  

know people eat pigs feet but that never appealed to me.  I know some eat pigs

ears too, on sandwiches.  Maybe if they fry them enough they are like the pig

skin and we eat those.

 

My husband was in the ines for about 11 years and there they would BBQ

the family pet if someone special came for dinner.  They might have a pot

bellied pig or a dog.  Cats were too greasy and too boney.  But they would eat

dog and he liked it.  It was funny hearing him talk of giving them a warm home

- about 350 degrees.  Sounds terrible to us.  I know here in FL they criticize

eating horse but yet what s the difference between that and a cow?  We have

become far removed from the animals  that are considered food.  I can

understand why some don't eat any meat at all.  I always though it was terrible

to kill Bambi's mother or father.  I have eaten venizen and it tastes good. 

But I think of being small and bawling my eyes out because Bambi's mother was

killed and it was his " mommy " .  I had half the people in the theatre crying and

all saying, " the poor little thing " as I bawled.  We sent my daughter to =her

room when we were seeing

the Sea turtles race to the sea after being born and with all the birds

above.  However, we didn't think anything about it when the party were

trying to escape before a strm at the south pole and one guy wrote in his

journal and then went off into the white wilderness and my daughter started to

cry because he was going to die.  I had no idea she would even catch onto

that.  I barely did.  He knew he was holding the party back because of his

frostbite on his feet so he decided not to slow them down anymore and walked off

into the white air.  Kids are a lot smarter tan we think and at young ages. 

Might have seen that before the turtles and knew she couldn't see that.

I know what you mean, we have a few friends that are from Mass and they say

things like gunna  pox d ca n d ha ba (Going to park the car in the harbor)

Never heard of Rostneers before but caught what it ment quick.

Rocky mountain oysters are no where near sweet breads, however in some places

they are cow stomic and others Brains, Mountain oysters are simalar to calf or

lamb fries. There fried testicles. Never thought I would eat them eather but I

will give things at least one try for the most part, and so I did these, there

actually good. What I have given a try and will NEVER again is what we call

chidlyns most people call them chitterlings. They taste like the

smell.....Gross!

I have a neighbor from Massachusetts and it took me awhile to understand

him.   ka is car; haus is horse.  There was something else that was really

funny and I even saw a catoon recently where it was BC giving a definition of

something -- pox    --- parks   might have been  pox and was a place to

put your ca.  My family were from Middle Tennessee and we had rostneers, poke

or sack/ I explained that rostneers were roasting ears and my friend still

didn't get it and I had to tell him corn on the cob.  They used to roast them

so they were roasting ears or rostners or rosneers.  Every locale has a bit of

its own language and we learn some of it as we go. Some totally change their

language to suit the new.  I have a granddaughter who is a missionary in the

Atlanta, GA area and I figure she will go back to California with a deep

southern accent.  She is also learning the cooking thre as well and that will

do her well as it is some great food. 

Food is what I think is nice to try in different areas.  But I haven't tried

those Rocky Mountain oysters and don't think I intend it.  In the south I think

they call them sweet breads or something like that.  Yet they have all kinds of

real sweet breads so looks like they would get confused.

Where you from Ew? Im an Okie living in Wyoming... I grew up saying things like

" you ought not done did that " or Yunna (means " you want too " ) Here they say

things like Cowboy/cowgirl up, which means suck it up/ tuffin up.  I was born

and raised Okie, lived in Florida, Texas, Montana, and Wyoming. People really

get confused cause I will talk about differnt foods like " boyld p'nuts " ,

Ca'fish, mexcun dishes n rocky mountain oysters. Mixed with my slight accent,

they cant figure out where Im from...lol .

, your story about dolphin took me WAY back to when I was in DisneyWorld

with my husband about 30 years ago. We were in one of the Restaurants (with an A

Frame). Now don't ask me why I know this (about the A frame but it just came to

me, lol)
