That sounds familiar. My grandfather was captured at the Battle of
the Bulge and spent the rest of the war in a German prison camp.
After he got home (6' tall and 130 pounds), he would not eat soup of
any kind unless is had so many crackers in it that is was the
consistency of thick oatmeal. Apparently what passed for soup in the
camp was water with the occasional bean in it.

Watch-it! ;-)
But if anyone does try it I am VERY curious. I mentioned the
recipes to my
mother who looked horrified and stated that having had to eat udder
(as a kid in
Germany during WW2) and be grateful for having had food at all) she
compared it
to eating a hot water bottle (rubbery, slippery, and icky) but do
keep in mind,
she was a kid... she hates barley because the soup she had to eat
had the barley
soaked to the size and shape of calves teeth to the the most volume
from each
grain.... wont eat potatoes that are not peeled - ate enough potatoe
peels to
last a life time...
