“mustripen”

You know it has to be nasty when Google only gives you a page and a half of hits and not one photo.

On the other hand, Google has tens of thousands of hits when “scrapple” is in the search box. Yummmmmmmmmmmmm.

“”I mean, look at it!” Birenbaum exclaimed, wrinkling her nose and curling her upper lip as she poked a brown hunk on her plate with a fork. “It’s cabbage and blood and other gross things from a pig. How appetizing is that?””

C’mon, lady. Hog jowls and picnic ham are disgusting things from a pig?

I’d like to try Mustripen. I was not raised on Hot Pockets and McMuffins so I can try these heritage dishes. When I was little we had duck blood soup and turtle stew and rattlesnake which I don’t think my neighbors would like nowadays.

But it is ok. It is how close you are to history. The foods I would not want to try because of ickiness are dog, guinea pig, tarantula, and lobster but if I were around others eating it I would just say no thanks. I would not act all prissy and say disparaging things that reflect on the people.

So how is it? It actually doesn’t sound half bad.
