Can't do a proper beef wellington without it

There was a study where radioactive markers were mixed with liver, heart, etc. When people ate it and underwent a CAT scan, the majority of the radioactive material ended up in the corresponding organ. That is to say, when we eat liver, it ends up in our liver, and we don't know why or how. Thusly, foie gras is very healthy for Americans to eat, as we don't typically eat organs.

So the whole penis enlargment thing can be solved with eating horse dicks?

Go figure.

Ugh, liver.

Why is duck liver in our livers healthy for us?

Delighted to be alive? Relationships? No, no, no. Most birds are not intelligent creatures. You can cut an egg-sized hole in the nest of just about any songbird and they'll just jeep laying and laying eggs, continuously dropping them to the ground.

Anthropomorphism is PETA's bread and butter.

I had a crawfish boil at my house a month ago, and some of my friends refused to come because they felt it was unethical to boil them alive. I fucking flipped out. They're little mud bugs, Jesus; They're simply a complex plant as far as I'm concerned.

Fuck the ducks.

I find that there is a certain appeal to the idea of the consumption of suffering. I've had opportunity to eat this before (ugh duck liver) and snubbed it, next chance I get I will not pass it by.

Don't crawfish taste like shit?

In packs in the wild, the dominant male eats the organs first. I don't know if this is specifically healthy, but anecdotally I found it interesting.

Oh. I imagine they're doing that because it's protein-rich or something. I thought you were positing that organ health could be assured by some kind of like-consuming-like equation, which I found way too medieval to not be intrigued by, and would possibly consider eating livers if it meant I sprouted a personal 99-kilo mega-liver out of the deal.

Anthropomorphism is PETA's bread and butter.

Anthropomophism leads to a whole shitload of misunderstandings. It's why people don't understand natural selection: our genes want to be passed down etc. It is funny how PETA never seems to get enraged over the fact that there are enormous companies that exist to kill wasps, spiders, and cockroaches.

I hope you jest Acheron or you have missed out on one of the few pure joys in life.

On of my coworkers flipped out when some lady brought a live lobster through the line (I cashier at a grocery store). She thought it was cruel that they were going to boil it alive.

Someone should eat that bitches liver!

I wish I had a proper liver :(

Lownotes is right.
Mudbugs = tastyriffic

Once I told a group of California friends my fond childhood memory of visiting my relatives and boiling and eating lobster fresh out the ocean. I told them how delicious it was and how fun it was to pull the meat out of the shell. Then they looked at me like I was talking about boiling babies or something. Sheesh.

I wish I had a proper liver :(

D00d, your liver is gonna taste awesome!!!

I think it's the little cry they make when the steam starts to hiss out of the joints--or maybe they are trying to say:
' FIE! YOU MORONIC HUMAANS! WE ARE JUST VISITING YOUR PLANETS! WHEN I GET BACK TO MY WATER CAPSULE I WILL INFORM THE EMPERORRR...'

oh no-calorie, it could be that the liver acts as a filter in the ol' blood system and any radioactive marker would accumulate there or the in the bile or in the intestinal lining, or the shits.

And frankly mr. kakuna, the fois gras isn't that hard to score--you really don't need more than a 1/8^th of an ounce will set you right if it's already been processed... yes it must first be rendered into a pate or maybe even grilled!!

By the way it's not legal to eat it in certain cities like Skunk City!

and a parting shot to the doom creature avatar, try crawfish �touff�e; yes it's cajun... but damn is it good.

I remember when I was kid in Oklahoma. We would go fishing and take a 2 liter pop bottle, cut the very top spout part off, then cut the top section above the lable off. Turn that top part around and push it inside the remaining part of the bottle. Toss in a piece of chicken meat, tie some line on to it and drop it in the water.

We would then commence fishing.

About every 15-20 minutes or so, pull the bottle up and dump the crawdads into a bucket.

Regardless of how many fish we caught, we always caught a bucket full of mudbugs. Fuckin redneck lobsters they are.

For whatever reason, I cannot eat liver from farm raised anything--liver from game is tolerable, but not to the point where I'll save the morsels rather than bury them with the rest of the gut pile. Here's the thing though; foie gras? liverwurst? all that stuff? fine. No problems with them at all.

Acheron:
'Don't crawfish taste like shit?'

Yes. If you have any, I'll take them from you out of concern that you might make the mistake of eating them--DON'T DO IT!!! GIVE THEM TO ME!!!!

Crawfish only once made it to the top of my shellfish glee list--I was in NO, and they were fresh, and it was my first taste of them, and they were the only shellfish I was interested in. Once the novelty wore off, and I returned to my other shellfish favorites, and crawfish never rose above third on the list--they always beat North Atlantic shrimp though.

Boiled babies wrapped in bacon never make it past 4th on my glee list.

FUK YEAH!

Can I get a copy of your shellfish glee list?

In no particular order, as it changes frequently:

Maine lobster,
Gulf shrimp,
Alaskan king crab,
Maryland blue crab,
Louisiana mudbugs,
Eastern oysters,
Little neck clams
