I imagine that it has a lot to do with what one is used to. I am not
greatly fond of many organ meats and certain other "weird" foods like
octopus sushi, not because I find the idea of them disgusting, but
because I dislike the texture. This can be affected by preparation. I
don't usually care for tripe, but had a good experience with it recently at
a Chinese restaurant. It had been fried in a way that made it tender, not
chewy as in my previous encounters. Likewise, I find liver much more
palatable if it's in the form of pate. I will try just about anything, though.
