Someone on FB suggested a thread on CBF for food that you've never tried but don't like  >:(. Well tripe is mine but I swear I will try it one day  ;D just read oscarj's post further down. Perhaps I should read them all before commenting   :)

When I was a kid my gran would come for her tea on tuesday. mum, dad and gran had lemon sole.
I had tripe because my gran said it was good for me.I used to heave as I ate it cold with vinegar.
it tasted of nothing but it was the feel of it that got me. Now I'm addicted to vinegar!

One of the few things that I do like about living in the UK is that you can easily get tripe, pig's trotters, tails, ears etc.

My local Asda has an Halal section and sell a lot of sheep's feet and the Halal butchers
sell lots of chicken feet. I can't see anything edible on either.
My father in law was a butcher and used to say the only part of a pig you can't sell is the squeal.
