Couple of decades ago, on holiday abroad, I got a request for pork liver.
After a 15 minute debate, I gave in, reluctantly.
At the butcher's, I was laughed at and ridiculed by the butcher and his two collegues.
Never again.
What was the context, lots of cultures use pork liver? I once absentminedly walked into a Kosher meat market and asked for pork chops🙄.
I miss my local ethnic butchers, veal and beef hearts and tongues.
ahhh, shredded beef tongue in hot corn tortillas with a little salt and some salsa. Que sabroso!!!
I also had a wonderful grilled kebab in Lima made from beef hearts. My wife is still waiting for me to duplicate the recipe.
Hmmm, not sure if SY is kidding or not re. the mayo. 😀

Wow, there's a chemist at Kraft crying right now!! hahaha
Everyone contributes some nice photos here and interesting food. Is there a thread where anyone has contributed their guilty pleasures? I don't consider nachos food but for some odd reason I want them from time to time.

context
Mainly an Asian thing (at the time I was married into a half Chinese, half Indonesian family)
South European nations are large-scale pork consumers, Italy, Spain, France.
They draw the line for organ meat, e.g. terrine paté in France will always contain cow/veal liver, never pork.
As for mayo, me just had a salad with a vinaigrette of homey mayonnaise, sour cream, extra dash of olive oil, white wine vinegar, S&P, + DIY truffle oil.
Slurp !
(Plus 4lb hot out of the oven Hispanic spiced free-ranger poultry. Had the chica still been alive, she had pooped out more fresh garlic than Tom Thumb had breadcrumbs )

This place is in our building. The grilled beefheats are great (no mayo in sight).

???I don't consider nachos food...
Do you mean as an entrée?
Or you decline the aperitivo gratis?
Just once in a while, I can eat deep-fried chicken gizzards (with hot sauce). And there's sausage making that I don't want to know about. Otherwise, for me organ meat is not food. Is that what you mean?

I should have been more clear. I think more along the lines of synth food. You know, nachos with that cheese-like food and generic picked jalapenos on top.
Some people crave twinkies, Chicken McNuggets, etc.

Scott, if I show this to my wife, she will ask me to get a reservation right now! Peruvians are moving to Texas, albeit slowly. So our options are limited in the area right now.
SY, IMHO, anything tastes great marinated and grilled, even a 60's band!!! 😀

I'm partly with SY. About the only thing I use mayo for is egg sandwiches. Don't know what else I could use. For potato salad we use an oil and vinegar and herb dressing.
As far as tongue goes, I like pork the best.

Ah OK... theater/stadium nachos. I'll admit I too indulge in those every now and then, but they have to have plenty of those generic pepper slices.
My other guilty pleasure when I was young..strawberry pop-tarts. High cuisine!!! 😀
Didn't realize such an aversion to mayo or as the chemists call it in tech jargon, 'pus'.
Scott, I'm making lomo saltado for my wife next week. I think that is how I got her to say yes to my marriage proposal. 😉

I am addicted to Doritos, the orange bag ones. And microwave butter flavour pop corn. Every week some bags of each.
Cake cutting fee? What? Never seen that in my life...
It's curious that they point that out while prices are not shown.
Lamb gizzards, just fried with garlic, parsley and olive oil. Nothing more. Delicious.Just once in a while, I can eat deep-fried chicken gizzards (with hot sauce).

Coming to Burning Amp? We could add all the takeout you want to dinner, SY will pass on the animal flesh.

It's on my must-do list but not this year. I'm heading to Chicago in the Fall. 😉
