[Henry Krinkle]

I have had scrapple - homemade from the dad of my first girlfriend (*cough* years ago) - he grew up in eastern PA. I have also made Cajun style dirty rice many times, with all sorts of ugly chicken scraps, and I have also made paté from scratch, with pig, chicken and duck liver. I have no problems with the odd bits of an animal. I was actually mostly-vegetarian for over ten years. When I decided that I wanted to try everything, I realized that all parts of an animal should be used, since its life was taken... don't waste that life. My holiday turkey gravy has all the giblets. Weird bits are yummy.

I agree 100% - eat the whole animal - trotters, ears and all. Do it justice. If it tastes good then great.

I'm born and raised Canadian, but I'm 1st gen. I grew up Scottish, and this classic cartoon basically covers the family food policy:

Count me in too.

I am also first gen Canadian and have memories of my Dutch mom cooking down hogs heads. Every single part of an animal that can be used must be used.

It's melting! It's melting! (Sorry. I am heavily into a Wizard of Oz based charity event).

Given I usually cook vegan/vegetarian I had an unusual request for a roast dinner today. MrsO will eat everything except the meat but loves a bit of proper gravy on her roast potatoes.
So later this afternoon I will be doing full roast beef with Yorkshire pudding and all the trimmings.

I like pancakes

Covered in ice cream, nuts and delicious, delicious high fructose corn syrup brought back from miami for me from a friend.

You don't have high fructose corn syrup? Strange.

Regardless, you need 100% pure Canada grade A light maple syrup, the best pancake syrup in all the land.
