Do the name Pink Slime mean any thing? |

I'd rather have a scrambled egg and a slice of toast with a side of fresh apple for less money and fewer calories than one of those quesaritos. Disgusting!!! |

Just saw an ad on tv for a new Taco Bell product, demonstrated by a skinny person. Do they really think we're that dumb? I guess so. Mulcahy: Excuse me, Colonel, I have some important business. Potter: Confessions? Mulcahy: Dysentery! Potter: Ah, well, this too shall pass.

For the record, the fish I made myself last week was whiting, not tilapia. I have three more of them in the freezer. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

My mom used to buy tilapia and Orange Roughy, but we were never big seafood eaters. On another note, does anybody like chicken livers? Some of the Kentucky Fried Chicken's here have them on the menu. I tried one once and it was just too dense and kind of gritty. I didn't care for it. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Goose liver? Never tried it, but have heard really bad things about how foie gras is harvested. Is it just our body's ancient survival instinct that makes us crave fattening foods? The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Pate can be made from a variety of substances. I have even had vegetarian pate made from mushrooms and brandy. It was delicious. Rob is correct though. As with most things in life there is a range of quality from high to low. |

Goose Liver Paté is, indeed, a horrible thing to eat if you care at all about animals and how they are treated. Rather than go into detail (it's pretty horrifying), here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foie_gras_controversy That link is one of the mild ones. ~Sue~ |

Vic I guess it depends on how it's prepared. Something else that I see on menus nowadays is bone marrow, which seems weird to me. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Liver to Me tastes and feels like shoe leather, if someone else likes it, that is their choice, not mine. When I grew up I was told either eat it or go to bed with no dinner, I went to bed, I later found out Mom only cooked it for Dad, cause He liked it, Mom didn't like liver either. My older Brother liked liver too, but He never tried to force Me to eat it. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Liver to Me tastes and feels like shoe leather, As quite often with food it all depends on how it is cooked. Liver should not be dry and tasteless, but still moist and it has a very strong flavour. I personally enjoy it, with onions mashed potato and gravy, this being UK gravy In British cuisine, as well as in the cuisines of Commonwealth countries like Australia and New Zealand, the word gravy refers only to the meat based sauce (and vegetarian/vegan alternatives) derived from meat juices, stock cubes or gravy granules. Use of the word "gravy" does not include other thickened sauces. One of the most popular forms is onion gravy, which is eaten with sausages, Yorkshire pudding and roast meat. Not the many different sauces that those in the US call gravy. |

When I think of gravy, I really only think of plain old brown, nothing fancy. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

When I think of "gravy", my Italian-American heritage makes me think of a meat and mushroom pasta sauce. I really shocked my midwestern husband when he first saw me cooking a batch of something I was calling "gravy". Eric's Wisconsin interpretation of the word "gravy" would be much like yours, Gordon. |
