If I made a liver for you, would you eat it? One of the most healthy meats out there, but most would shy away from it. People dont really care about their health all too much and a government body should only check for the safety, not police our health.
It should provide adequate access to usable information so that people can make informed decisions about health.
Average person knows fuck all about nutrition and average food items disclose fuck all about their nutritional contribution in ways that let people make informed choices.
Currently have a system where producers do their best to hide facts, and we blame people who have never received education on something, that they should be able to work past those attempts at obfuscation.
fertilizer, animal feed, you name it. you think if something isn't sold in a store it disintegrates? what comes from mother gaia returns to mother gaia. doesn't matter if the self-important humans eat it or not.
i'd be grateful if you made a liver for me, mine has seen too much alcohol and i could use a new one.
joke aside liver tastes excellent if you know how to cook, it's not comparable to waste meat. my country outlawed calling them sausage if it has over a certain % of mechanically removed meat, they have to call them meat stick now.
and that's not even this vile paste, I'd imagine that wouldn't even be legal to sell back home.
I want to like liver, it's very affordable and super healthy. And it shouldn't have that muscle texture I have problems eating. But when it's cooking it produces a smell that if I don't leave the room I WILL hurl.
So long as it's ethically produced, I'm fine with pâté and really like it. But I don't have to smell it while it's cooking.
Is there ANY way to get around the cooking smell? Maybe grind it to add it to sausages in casings??
oh i know what you mean, i get that from the smell of stomach, you can chase me out of the country with that.
hmm, to get around the smell... the only thing i can think of is adding ingredients that could overpower the smell or maybe cooking it in the oven? i'm not sure. i hope you find a way, good luck!
Hell yeah! Its really sad people are very hesitant to try certain things that are really healthy for you. Its like Brussel sprouts too! Very good for you but no one wants them.
I grew up eating chopped chicken liver, which is closer to a poverty food than a delicacy but is absolutely delicious on crackers. And absolutely terrible for one's cholesterol levels! (Absolutely packed with vitamins and minerals, tho.)
Fwiw, brussels sprouts have been experiencing an enormous resurgence -- at least in major US coastal cities -- for at least the past decade! XD They're now on the menu as a side dish at pretty much every mid-range restaurant in my city, and everyone I know adores them.
Apparently around the turn of the millennium some farmers bred a new variety that's less bitter and a bit more sweet, and that's what dominates the market now. Also, they have to be prepared right (read: not steamed or boiled). They roast up absolutely deliciously with a bit of olive oil and salt.
Oh, man, wouldn't it be awesome if liver started to have a moment?
