One lunch time went into a small neighbourhood trattoria that I'd used many times before. There was a table of old men troughing down something with tomato sauce. Thinking it must be good I indicated to the waiter that I would like the same. Trippa ! he quizzicaly asked. Si Si I replied.
It was tripe in tomato sauce. Feck me it was awful. But not wanting to cause offence I ate the lot drowned in cheese.

Couldn't eat the rest of the down as I was one mouthful away from vomiting.
