Ah, offal. No coincidence it's pronounced 'awful' is it? But let me back up a moment. I like to screw television. No, not the actual machinery (ouch!) but rather the networks that put on asinine programs and the pay-cable-companies that charge way too much for different asinine programs. Can we have a system where I can pick and choose my stations and pay only for those? Thanks. One of those stations I'd choose is an American network called 'The Food Network'. Quite original programming there for a cooking channel. I guess when you're dealing with a limited subject like a person standing there cooking, you really have to get creative to make it interesting. Anyway, I don't like to pay for 1,490 channels that I don't watch just to watch a few programs on The Food Network. So I do what most people do....I watch youtube.
Offal. Now we get to the sweetmeat of this blog post. In watching one of my favorite shows 'Iron Chef America' (not as entertaining as the dubbed Japanese version, but close) I stumbled across 'Battle: Offal'. I immediately thought of Russ. So, in the hopes that Russ is still reading these pitiful blog entries of mine, so here is the link to the program in question. I hope nobody find them awful. Ha! I crack myself up.

Great clips Mike. Made me all hungry, like. Do you eat sweetbreads Stateside? I recommend most heartily. Over here there's quite a movement encouraging "nose to tail" eating. Check out Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall (how could he be anything but a deranged Englishman?)

Mmmm. Furry.
For Andres
Maybe we should have a TF1 recipe thread to showcase our national cuisine?
