Lovely, Lovely Liver.
 

"You'll Love Coles" brand in Australia (supermarket's own brand) is getting huge now.

They've just released a Liverwurst which is out of this world. I can even taste a tiny hint of brandy in it !

Nummy !! Just had some on an english muffin for breakfast. :cool:


What's your favourite liver dish ?

Um...

none?

Right there with you, Matt. (We need a smilie for retching.)

Oh, you guys never had Pate ?

Melbourne has a large jewish community, and I first tried chopped liver there, and it was a very pleasant surprise !!

You don't have to eat the livers with some fava beans and a nice chianti, ya know.

I've had pate. Eew.

My favorite liver dish is fois gras, in all its evil fatty deliciousness.

Y'see Lashie, we 'Mericans don't like yer liver 'nless it comes pan-fried with onions.

Which is why we don't like liver.

Paté, on the other hand, or even liverwurst, is sufficiently disguised so that we may eat it at parties and feel super sophisticated. Any cheeses more exotic than cheddar or parmesan-in-a-can are also only enjoyed at parties so that we may fake impress each other.

mmmm Fois Gras, which must be eaten at every opportunity before it is banned

Here's a few:

Or, at least until your liver explodes. And hey, that's how they make it!

I do love liverwurst, though. I associate with my baby days. My Grandpappy sure loved that stuff.

The liver is the filter of the body. It removes all of the toxic substances, and then....you eat it? Why? ;)

Despite that I have been known on occasion to take a bite of Turkey or Chicken liver when I'm boiling the giblits for the gravey (like twice a year). And partake of Pate at a party (which has been only a hand full of times in my life). Other than that, considering I'm watching my cholesterol and there is no food higher in the stuff (and the above statement), I avoid it.
