Pickled Turkey Gizzards still work for me.
I do miss 'Muffets Shredded Wheat' (big round drum-shaped) biscuits I always had for breakfast when a boy.

In my Italian Grandmother's house, we used to have what they call soufritte or guts in tomato sauce. I don't miss it, but I hear my Aunts once in a while talking about going down and getting some chicken or rabbit livers for soufritte. Bleah.
My Father's family in Oklahoma had a thing for chicken feet. You could go to the Tyson plant and fill 5 gallon buckets with them if you wanted. Again, Bleah!
By the way, Ken, I love cornbread broken up in a glass of cold milk. One of my favorite things in the World.

nothing to weird for me, just lefse which isnt much but a tortilla made with potatoes......my grandfather never could get me to eat lutefisk.....other stuff was mainly reserved for brandings and special family get together s like baked beans baked in the ground....rocky mountain oysters aswell but those seem to be dieing out as most ranchers band instead of cut calves....
guess i also remember one, grandma used to make some sort of creamed chicken over toast......havent thought about that in years.....

That's one I haven't had in many many years. back in my younger days when i spent a night or two in the pokey for disorderly conduct and similar stuff associated with spending most of your time in bars, the local sheriff served chit on a shingle for breakfast.

� Creamed chipped beef on toast.
That's one I haven't had in many many years. Always liked it � even in Navy mess halls, where all the guys called it "foreskins on a shingle." Good grub!
"Good enough" isn't.

This post sounds like the menu at gramma's. Turtle eggs, fried pig brains with eggs and cracklins, oatmeal and toast for breakfast and fried chicken for Sunday dinner that was eating ticks out of the yard on Sunday morning Russ

P Weed,
Pickled turkey gizzards are great!
Always liked them plain with cold beer, but eventually tried them on rye bread with good mustard, and they were even better--especially with a cold beer!

Things I don't miss...
Turnip greens, fresh from the garden... Flaaa!
Unpasteurized milk, even removing the cream and straining, chunks form and you chew it as you drink it... Kaaa!
Home grown soaked oats... Blaaa!
I'm sure there were worse but I'd have to go to hypnotist to drudge up the repressed memories.

Almost forgot the rarest, greatest delicacy from those long-ago years �
Now 'n' then � not nearly often enough � Dad'd catch a female bass with a wad o' roe.
Can't remember the flavor or how Mama fixed it � just that it was incomparably, indescribably delicious.
"Please, Daddy! Catch some more!" (as if he had any say in the matter!)
"Good enough" isn't.

You don't see liverwurst or limburger much any more.

We always left the nerves in a few of the frog legs, 'cause it made Mom crazy when they jumped around in the frying pan.

Spent some time with an uncle who loved limburger � the only times when I ever had any.
Like somebody said about something else, "Once you get past the stink, you've got it licked!"
Can't remember the taste � only that I liked it.
_________________________________________________
Friend of mine used to say that he'd once known how to make limburger but couldn't remember whether to hang a bucket of sh�t in the milk house or a bucket of milk in the sh�t house.
