Why aren't you eating animal organs /fit/?
Hearts, livers, kidneys etc.
They are cheap as fuck, easy to prepare and delicious. In my country they are on average 5-6 times cheaper than regular ground beef and just as healthy.
They are packed with protein and essential micro-nutrients such as iron and vitamin B.
Pic related, it's the best muscle of the animal.
>inb4 you're too much pussy to eat organs
>>34942556
I do eat organs, anon. but this is a work safe board.

>>34942556
I only eat penis m8.
Eating organs is gay as fuck.
I'm eating lamb liver as I type this right now. I throw a lambs liver in with my slow cooked chicken.
Shit is basically like eating a multivitamin that actually works
>>34942556
I like organs, i just don't like kidneys taste like shit senpai.
>>34942594
Would it be less offensive for you to post a picture of a raw leg or a raw back?
Does your employer discriminate between muscles? Fair enough, however if I was your boss and saw you looking at this board I'd just tell you to get the fuck back to work
I bought a bunch of beef liver just the other day
>>34942634
My boss also likes to eat organs.
The meat on the cheeks is OK, a bit fatty and dry though. The tongue is really the best part of the head.
The eyes are an acquired taste. A bit like warm jelly.
Calf liver is the shit. I eat it once or twice a week and it's awesome. Need to try some other animal livers sometime
>>34942672
Icelandic, anon? Sheep heads are nice.
I get my vitamins from vegetables thanks, i don't need to add any cancer to my diet
>>34942672
Oh man that looks good. I need to ask around to see if this is available around here. How expensive is it usually?
>>34942703

>>34942556
I am eating liver. But it tastes like shit.
In order to make it edible I cut it into strips. Then I put all the meat into a bag of milk for 5 minutes. Then I take it out one by one and and turn them in flour. Then fry them at low heat in olive oil so it doesn't turn into bad fat.
Fry some chopped onion and mushrooms in the reamining oil. Eat it with mash potato.
I would love to try hearts, but I don't know how to prep it.
Kidneys are defintely inedible. It is tough and dry. I have to drown that shit in gravy in order to eat it.
>>34942705
I'm not sure, but it's pretty reasonable. I think the prices may have gone a bit up lately in my country because it's becoming a novelty tourist food.
>>34942713
That sounds straight delicious desu senpai.
I've got some liver in the fridge for later m8.
>>34942713
What does the milk do?
>>34942672
Wow, that looks hardcore as fuark.
I wanna try it so bad, where do i have to go to eat awesomeness like this?
>>34942713
Be sure to cut off the fat and the veins at the top of the heart. Let the meat sit in the fridge for a couple of days so it softens up. I usually marinate them with lemon, paprika, black pepper and some garlic before cooking.
On a pan, either just cut it in two halves or into many smaller chunks. It's also really good to slow cook them. Good to serve them with sweet potatoes, mushrooms, aspargus or turnips.
>>34942736
Helps eliminate some of the harsh iron taste I believe
>>34942756
Just go to any sheepfarmer or a butcher who keep sheep meat. You can do the preparation yourself.
>>34942777
I swear I'm the only one who seems to love the taste or iron. If I had the money I would eat a couple ozs of spinach everyday
>>34942723
>have gone a bit up lately in my country
Dude, sheep heads are cheap, no matter where you live. You don't need to buy it from the tourist shops.
>>34942796
Liver has a much stronger iron taste than really, anything. On par with blood imo.
Im armenian we kebob lamb hearts, and assorted livers and kidneys all the time
We also eat lamb testicle and goats heads from time to time.
>>34942812
Yeah I know, but if I ate liver everyday I'd probably be sick. There's only so much a noncybernetic organism can do with iron
>>34942556
But I do.

>>34942736
The number one reason why people think they hate liver is that they didn't properly wash the bile off. Liver tastes good, but bile tastes incredibly nasty. Soaking in milk just turns out to be a good way to get a lot of that nasty taste washed off better than water could do, considering I think bile is hydrophobic so soaking in fats will remove it better.
Does anyone take dessicated beef liver capsules?
I just started the other day as I'm trying to get more liver in my diet, and this seemed like the easiest way. There isn't an examine article on beef liver, so I'm looking for some anecdotal evidence to support my decision.
>>34942556
Love fried gizzards
Grilled chicken hearts
And dirty rice
Idk why organ meat isnt more prevelant its cheap and healthy...maybe just most people cant/wint cook so their afraid of it >>34942703

>>34942556
I do sometimes. Beef heart is shit, no matter what I do it tastes like old blood and it's terrible. Liver tastes like ass and has a terrible mouth feel, but it's easy to hide in dishes so that it's not so disgusting. Chicken gizzards are great, I love to fry then up in bacon fat or simmer them until they're tender. Tongue, tripe, and brain are my favorites though.
I'm not sure if they'd constitute organ meats, but cow, pig, and chicken feet are pretty awesome for soups and stews and are nutritious and cheap as fuck.

>>34945642
EAT A DICK, BUDDY!
>>34947619
I mean how can they ban such a specific kind of food
>>34947719
Because of a higher risk of disease. Such as with certain foods containing offal, brain or like rakfisk which is served fermented but uncooked.
>>34947796
Cooking doesn't get rid of mad cow disease, it's not a virus, it's a prion, it survives
Did you know, anyone who has lived in Europe for more than 3 months after 1980 or so is not allowed to give blood in the US, and EU beef products are still banned in America.
For many years there was also huge demand in the US for Scandinavian sperm, but using the Mad Cow excuse, the FDA banned sperm imports too.
>>34947828
You know your sperm, anon..
>>34947828
You missed the 'or'.
Didn't imply uncooked beef. Rakfisk is not beef.

I don't like the taste of offal. Kidneys taste like metal and liver tastes like piss.
Call me a pussy, I don't care. Life is too short to eat shit you don't like that offers no significant benefit just so you're not called a pussy on the internet.
Actually, tell a lie, the only offal I like is tripe.

Usually those are leftover muscle meat cuts, not organ meats. Organ meats have a very distinctive taste that would be really hard to hide from someone who didn't like them.

In all honesty, you guys should consider eating beef tendon stew. If you ever get that grindy feeling on your joints after working hard or climbing / knees after squatting it should help, especially if you're already warming up.

I eat chicken hearts because they're really cheap. I was suspicious at first, but no literature suggested they were nutritionally inferior and they literally taste the same as regular chicken.
>>34942713
the conversion rate to "bad fats" is pretty small (because monounsaturated fats). but it's the loss of vitamins and antioxidants from the olive oil that's somewhat significant.
i think an important reminder when being autistic is that statistical significance is different from practical signficance
The availability in my country is fucking horrible. However, my granparents have a reindeer farm and I often get reindeer livers, blood, tongues and hearts from them. We don't eat kidneys, brains, lungs or testicles here.
In my opinion, the best way to cut meat consumption is to promote the usage of the lesser valued cuts of the meat instead of going full retard and replacing everything with Chinese soy.

You really shouldn't eat brains ever, eating brains exposes you to the possibility of prions that can literally survive blast furnace temperatures. You can get spongiform encephalopathy which is more commonly known as mad cow disease which eats holes in your brain as you slowly go mad and die. Its not super likely but I would stay away from that shit

I became a vegetarian a little over a year ago, but not even then I could stomach organs. In fact, I was always a bit disgusted by meat, only ate chicken breats because it's dry and some red meat. Never liked fish.

This one is definitely a favorite. Quinoa is also really good on the proteins and there's a lot of delicious variation. Also look up meals with broccoli, tofu (hate it), fungi, beans, eggs and legumes. Having a vegetarian diet is really not hard, only vegans struggle with meal options.
>>34958419
You could get that protein from like six ounces of chicken.
>>34958583
Or a few scoops of powder, but a nice bowl of quinoa, avocado, and beans is a healthier way to get the prote in
>>34958657
It's also like triple the calories with a ton of carbs for less protein. Don't get me wrong, I love plants, but they're a cruddy main protein source unless you like running a ton to burn off the extra calories from getting enough protein in.
>>34958695
>eat chicken for protein and then a separate carb source for carbs

>>34958902
Good luck starving yourself.
>>34958971
Anon, I don't starve myself. If you eat at least 6 meals a day in short amounts you'll be fine, some will have more calories but you can compensate with lighter meals in between. And even then you can easily burn out the additional calories. Though I do understand that might be a challenge for people that are used in eating meat regularly. It's just not as hard as you make it seem.
>>34950588
I've never seen this at the supermarket, am intrigued.
>>34942556
I pan fry liver with extra firm tofu. I think its tastey.
>>34949719
Unless you live in Michigan. State law requires hot dogs to have real meat in them, not leftover shit.

Man, Liver & Kidneys are delicious. There's brain matter too. Primarily from sheep and goats. We also eat chicken feet.
