I'm afraid I just don't get that kind of thinking... surely if it's
delicious, it's delicious.
I looked up a recipe for scrambled eggs and brains-- it actually sounds
pretty good to me.

I'll have to see what I can find.
I don't know about US regulations, but I think around here I can still
get frozen lambs' brains, and fresh hogs' brains if I ask the butcher
for some, but sheeps' lungs are off the market completely, which rather
spoils my haggis-making dreams.
