https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chitterlings
are a food most commonly made from the small intestines of pigs
Disease can be spread by chitterlings not cleaned properly and undercooked. Pathogens include E. coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, and Salmonella.[1] Chitterlings are often soaked and rinsed thoroughly in several different cycles of cool water, and repeatedly picked clean by hand. They may then be turned inside out, cleaned and boiled, sometimes in baking soda or salt, and the water discarded.
That is some excellent story telling ability! Thank you for sharing
They are very much an acquired taste, and I would never recommend them to anyone who didn’t already like them. One positive thing for them though, is they are inexpensive and cheap!
