This is nuts! I'll pass.

This is nuts! I'll pass.

The big question is ....Why?

 

[1STMP]

Sounds like competition for mountain oysters.
Maybe a festival in Kansas with either turkey
or sheep nuts. Let the great debate begin.
One of the prerequisite would be, you gotta
drive your Mopar to the event.
We're all nuts anyway. May as well celebrate
the fact.

Missouri has a turkey testicle festival they go NUTS over. Olean Missouri go BALLS out for it.
I have never been, drove by the sign on my way to my lake house a thousand times. Can't do it, it's like doing my own gender by proxy.

Plenty of male gobblers running around FBBO...
mildly surprised that no recruiting efforts have been made in this "target-rich
environment".

McPherson, Ks has(had) an annual Mountain Oyster plate sponsored and cooked by theie local Knights of Columbus (KC) council.
This is/was their money maker.
Never tried them

Up near Salmon Idaho they have a Testicle Festival annually.
I've gone twice. Beef testicles and diced beef. I never could tell the difference between the two.
Never know unless someone told ya.

You have to wonder what the hell.....then a whole city is on board, really?
God help us all!

Up here in Canada we have prairie oysters (from castorated young bulls ) and lamb fries (the penis from young sheep ) and no I have had the urge to try either one .

Turkey testicles aka kapon eggs.

Turkey raisers & supply chain profiteers
made it up
to sell stuff they'd normally discard,
make a day of celebration of it to appease the town
that has the Turkey industry as 'big taxpayers/job suppliers'
the community's income

marketing 101,
get the stupid to buy & eat ****
you'd normally throw away/discard unsellable
pure profit

I've had bull balls, deep-fried & battered
it actually wasn't bad, I was young & dumb
I just couldn't get over the fact
still 'they were Bull Balls'

anyone that's been around ranching has

my younger brother's 1st wife (he's on #4) was from a big cattle family
at his wedding dinner, it (Rocky Mountain Oysters) was the main course
I passed, I ate cheese & salami, anti-pasta, biscuits or ordurvres instead...
Amazed how many of the bridesmaids all ate it up...

Crazy what some will consume…like in china ‘wet market’ weird meats. Meat processing company I had to tour for work exported all sorts of stuff…eyeballs, tongues, ears, ball-balls, etc. Watched those parts being mounted on moveable racks neatly hung with eyeballs and tongues dangling…no thanks; I’ll have a pop tart.

 

[Ranger16]

I'll eat most anything that doesn't eat me first, but I have to put my foot down somewhere, and I'd rather step on genitals than eat them.

I know I'll cop flak for this, but to me that is a couple worse than eating offal....kidney, liver, heart etc. In the old days we were served that stuff up and worse - tripe & onions. These days I don't even think twice....it's off the menu.

I mean liver.... think about it for a second...
