  • Calf's head. Here's a recipe, if you dare.

    You have to wonder about a food described this way:

    "There is no more certain way of putting anyone off tête de veau forever than to serve it undercooked. And the second is that once you have finished cooking it you must allow it to cool completely otherwise it will explode."

    Wow.

  • Yikes. Though I knew someone who liked to order calf's brains at Greek restaurants, and they came in the original container. His wife made him stop years ago, because of the risk of scrapie.
