    So I am doing my bit to preserve the endangered, chicken, turkey, cow, lamb, pig and crispy duck. It's the least I can do



    I’ve been trying that with blue fin tuna but it’s still going extinct. Must eat more sashimi.

        Pigs trotters are good in stews; they make it all a bit thicker and more gelatinous. Try a Milanese cassouela sometime.

          My mum and dad used to eat tripe, but us kids weren't required to, and didn't.

            they are brilliant in chippies as well, at chucking out time. Hey mate have you got any pigs feet ?
            yeah, well trot over there and get me a portion of chips.

              About the same here. I was well into adulthood before I could eat Brussels sprouts. My brother used to be physically sick at the dinner table when made to eat his greens.

              I'm not a big fish eater, though cod and chips is nice, but I can't eat a lot of salmon type fish.

                Mum used to get rabbits from the next door neighbour who hunted with his Ferrets. She'd tell us kids it was chicken.

                    I don't like tripe, but I rather enjoy eating liver. Preferably calf’s liver, sliced thinly, grilled and sprinkled with lemon, but also fried pig’s liver with bacon and mushrooms, or chicken livers with lettuce and vinaigrette, a delicacy of le Frogland. Recently in Deutschland I had some brawn with beetroot; delicious.
