Awesomest Food EVAR

Warning, the next pictures should not be viewed by smokers, pregnant women, people with weak hearts, and old people.
Goat stomach pretty much ranks in my top 5 coolest things ever eaten. My mom and sister refused to eat it. My sister had to eat in another room.

This is a picture of the inside of the pot. All the yummy goodness. The large bloated thing is the stomach proper, but there are plenty of other tasty treats.














Here is a mixed bag. The thingy on the spoon closest to you is the small intestine wrapped around bone. Definitely my favorite part. It was amazingly delicious, and I have always like the texture of things like squid and intestine.







This is my plate, fully loaded. The mushroom looking thingies are the kidneys. Plenty of vegetables (for a nuitritious and balanced meal) with some small intestine wrapped around bone
and some free floating large intestine. And of course, the stomach.








And this is what is inside of the stomach. It is a ground up mixture of blood, heart, liver, kidneys, brain, and other assorted organs. Kosher? Probably not. Delicious, why yes. It actually was very good. Not something I would eat every day, but once a month it would be a treat. My biggest complaint is that after stuffing the stomach with the ground stuff, they sewed it up with a near indestructible cord. Which is great for the form factor, making the stomach look prettier, but it makes it very, very hard to eat it. You have to pull the string out piece by piece.


Bonus picture. This is one of the many pictures I took when I was going around in the US. It was one of the several murals in the town. But this was definitely the best. I was going past it at a walking pace (cause I was walking) and almost had a seizure. I can not imagine driving past it in a car. The color overload. It was snowing when I took it. I love the snow so much. But anyway, this mural was amazing. It was on the wall of a kindergarten-middle school, and I have to believe that a few of the kindergarteners were terrified when they first saw it. Like the building was one huge monster. Or they thought it was a candy factory and cried because lets face it, Wonka was a freak. Funny at our age, scary much younger.
