    Comrade Kirby, you telling me you don’t attend the testicle cookoff every year? How can a true Yugoslav resist!

    (just kidding). I think they’re talking about this:

    Seriously though, if you’ll eat a bull’s ass at least toughen up and eat their sack, too. I’m a vegetarian now but “Rocky Mountain Oysters” are considered a delicacy (or test of will to eat) in the U.S., too, it’s not like it’s that weird. I don’t recommend em but only because they’re gamey to the point of being nigh inedible imo.

      lots of organ meats can be tough, so there’s probably some way to prepare it so that it tastes good but it’s not what you’d think at first.

        You’re certainly right, the ones the Serbs are cooking up sound well and tender. The “Rocky Mountain Oysters” I had were deep fried, as is Amerikan tradition, and that almost certainly impacted my enjoyment of em.

        Tangent: presenting this as “disturbing” is just food colonizer bullshit, it’s only as disturbing as all meat eating could arguably be seen as. People eat food! I am sure that I am looked down on by yuppies and suburbanites for having had to resort to frog legs, squirrel and opossum in my youth, and I’m a white Amerikan. Imo it all comes from the same animal – steak and testes alike – so nut up or shut up 😅

          i wouldn’t mind giving them a try. I remember having some trouble with intestine due to the texture but I think I could get used to it if I had the chance to experiment with cooking it myself.

          I think it’s better to use all the parts of the animal. probably skip eating the brain because of prions, but besides that it’s more respectful of their sacrifice to use as much of it as you can.

            Amerikans who make eating meat their entire personality be like:

            I love hot dogs, bacon and spam. Gristle and fat make it all the better! Mystery meat just hits the spot!

            Liver? Heart? Tongue? Testicles? 🤢 Are you some kind of savage?

        Of course it’s from bulls, idk if Serbians would mean eating american invaders balls, but that theory couldn’t be tested anyway since they don’t have any.
