[Sca-cooks] was mad cow... now brains

[Ana Valdés]

Please, do anyone have recipes or stories about that kind of food? I am 
now completing my longterm project about the cookbook I am writing, 
about "cruel food". And I need recipes and tales about lambtesticles and 
brains and all people in different cultural times has eaten.
My idea with the book is punctualize its not any "forbidden or 
disgusting food", everything is eadible if you need or fancy doing that.
Have now  an enormous bibliography about these kind of alimentary taboos.
