I&#39;m glad I goofed off in German class and wasn&#39;t fluent enough to read all the ingredients.Tracyhttp://www.ihatemymessageboard.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-32552078531835935162009-09-25T23:05:59.380-05:002009-09-25T23:05:59.380-05:00Gaaahhh!<br />My grandfather used to love eating head cheese.<br /><br />Thirty years later, I&#39;m still traumatized.<br /><br />Much like I will be traumatized thirty years from now as a result of that video.Jannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04827716404911856909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-64827209321857182112009-09-25T11:02:00.822-05:002009-09-25T11:02:00.822-05:00Oh, no that&#39;s real head cheese! Both my grandmothers used to make it. Use everything but the squeal. Fortunately, my parents hated it, so we were never subjected to it. My grandmother Keffeler made her own cottage cheese, too. My dad can&#39;t eat the stuff to this day.<br /><br />Next year, dare your friend to eat chicken paws. But, they are hard to find. After that: Blutwurst! Blood sausage. To answer your question: Yes, it really is. My inlaws eat it. It was even in the breakfast buffet at some place in Albany. I couldn&#39;t do it.PatKGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-29165529693859324622009-09-25T08:25:15.417-05:002009-09-25T08:25:15.417-05:00&quot;Did I mention there&#39;s gelatin in headcheese?&quot;<br /><br />&quot;It&#39;s called aspic.&quot;<br /><br />BWAH!<br /><br /><br />So I&#39;m off the hook now, right? You dared ME to eat headcheese, but since Karl has done it (and done it quite funnily), I think we can put it to rest.<br /><br />And please tell me that photo of headcheese is a cartoon.

Wierd German farmer man.... he would make, then eat, his own sour milk; straight from the cow, leave it on the counter and wait until it curdled before he ate it.<br /><br />I could barely eat while visiting his farm; stuck to veges and fruit mostly. When it was around.

Either I never saw it or I&#39;ve blocked it from my memory. They say traumatic events can hide themselves you know.<br /><br />rick - Like I told Cindy... no, I don&#39;t recall ever seeing that in our house as a kid. However, maybe I watched you have to suffer through it and that&#39;s where my fascination with it came from in the first place.<br /><br />bill - I can see why you never knew what it was. What normal parent would tell their child they were eating pig head parts. Your dad was lucky there was no labeling requirements back then.<br /><br />kathy - Only 4 minutes? It didn&#39;t even get gag-worthy until about 6 minutes. I think you should try again.<br /><br />mom thumb - I submitted my dare before I ever saw chicken paws for the first time.

Please send my apologies to Karl. Did he happen to say how he felt the next day? The next week? I mean, I&#39;m guessing head cheese sort of stays with you a while. <br /><br />What I want to know is who&#39;s eating it? Like, who actually buys it? If it&#39;s in a store, someone&#39;s <i>willingly</i> taking it home and plating it up and eating it. Or, maybe everyone&#39;s just doing it on a dare?

When we we unsuspecting little kids I used to get Sylta sandwiches in my school lunch. That&#39;s the Swedish name for it. I never knew what it was. I thought it was just &quot;lunchmeat&quot;.
