I much prefer when they all sit and eat dinner together than when BB has half house on slop.

I think you're confusing mince pies with sweetbreads and Christmas, Jucy

As nice as it is to have them all sit down to eat at the same time BB isn't about giving them all this food and all the games and luxuries they have this year. It's getting easier and easier every year. Yet, overseas, they still make 'em suffer.

Hmmmm maybe, but my Mom's family in Italy had sweetbreads for Christmas. It was terrible according to my Mom and she changed our traditions at Christmas for Cinn rolls in place of sweetbreads....every Christmas morning, we had home made rolls to start our day and she would tell us why every year.

KS probably not. They are aware of this website and they would see it as website promotion. You'd have to be more crafty.

BTW.. what the hell happened to last years interview with some of the members on TVCH?

I warch Top Chef and they had a competition with unsusal foods. Sweetbreads was one of them. Sounded like they were difficult to cook and get them to taste right. It also sounded like a delicacy found in a lot of top resturants.

I think they won't take anyone from TVCH. I doubt most of us have aspirations of becoming famous actors/models etc. None of probably have agents (yet) LOL and some of us aren't US citizens and aren't bloody allowed.

Sweetbreads probably taste like all other offal. Awful and very irony tasting.

You could KS. Dani gave a few of us some shoutouts last years so you could do that. I always said durring nominations I'd wear a tshirt with bunny ears on it and that way every one would know I was thinking about them here. You'd here me in my mic saying to you.. "watch this guys" and then I'd go screw with someone knowing you guys love that stuff. Now knowing some like the whole cuss em out routine I'd call some people a few colorful words for you all as well LOL

Actually Sweetbreads are absolutely delicious (as I mentioned earlier, I had no clue what they were until after I enjoyed them). I wonder if any of the HG know how to prepare them though? And I'm sure BB did it for yuks and shock value...but they are very expensive so it must have cost them a good amount for it. Most often you see it at very high end restaurants. Bet they don't realize the gourmet treat they are getting lol.

Ks you never had lobster?? Oh you MUST sometime....it's one of the most delicious things you can eat! Anyone know how they are preparing it?

And Sun, not gonna get in to a debate since I figure we can't know for sure, but being in New England there have been TONS of features (newwspaper and tv) on if lobsters feel pain or not, and scientists say no, as they have one of the smallest if not the smallest brains of any animal, and something about how the nervous system is. But as I said, I don't think anyone can swear to it. But I'm not a hypocrit, and since I eat other meat, I feel it's no worse and likely more humane than many other cases. But I do respect those that feel differently, as that's their right.

Alliet - I'm in a wheelchair which gives them a sap story. I can when I want to be, act like a militant loud mouthed atheist, so they could stick me in with a Kail. Uh....What else? Guess that's it. Still pretty good TV.

Except that I don't look like a Ken Doll. So I guess I'm out.

The art of cooking offal is to soak it overnight in water .... gets all the blood and toxins out. I guess the HG's did not soak it.
