[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

My Dad used to cook cow’s tongue at least once a month. Pretty creepy-looking to me as a kid! “A gigantic tongue, Dad? I’m supposed to eat that?” Delicious.

We had those occasionally. If I remember it was a pretty tough meat and required a lot of cooking. But I would still rather eat it every day than have liver once a year.

And I thought nothing was lower on the food desirability chain than lutefisk.

Speaking of tongue, there’s the tale about Gov. Huey Long going into a New Orleans delicatessen and ordering the specialty of the house, which turned out to be a beef tongue sandwich on rye.

The Kingfish was aghast: “Now do y’all think ah’m gonna eat something that come out of some animal’s mouth!? You go fry me a couple eggs!”
