My husband got the bright idea one or two Thanksgiving's to slip some oysters in the dressing; he didn't think I would notice. I wouldn't eat it...now that was disgusting!!!:biggrin:

Stuffed ham is definetly an acquired taste. I can only stomach it around Christmas and Thanksgiving. Other then that I can skip it the rest of the year.

You want something interesting try scrapple. Coming from good midwest polish/german country I thought I'd tried every pork by-product there was, I was woefully wrong - avoid at all costs unless you love headcheese crossed with braunschweiger.

:barf: :barf: :barf: :barf: :barf: :barf: :barf:

The only pig byproduct worse than scrapple is chitlins. I once visited someone who was cooking the stuff, and I couldn't stand to be in the house because of the smell. Chris Rock is right when he says that "soul food is not black food, soul food is the crap they fed to the slaves."

Why are we even cooking and eating those parts of the pig? I'm afraid to ask what is in kielbasa and half-smokes.

The smell of scrapple cooking is nothing compared to the smell of scrapple while its being made...:barf: :barf: :barf: . For that reason alone I won't eat it.

Try Raley's stuffed ham. The Ridge-area recipe uses cabbage, with a little kale for color. Most of the rest of St. Mary's uses kale and mustard seed.

I never tried stuffed ham until I'd been living here for 10 years. But then, my family only mingled with other then-newcomers like ourselves.

And it always seems it's the more expensive 'food/beverage' items.

whatever :duh:

:biggrin: True Arch! I guess growing up, I was never too picky, unless it was raw oysters :biggrin: ..., though we didn't have oysters too often; mostly meats and vegetables and stews/soups. You had to pretty much eat what was prepared. You didn't question where it came from, or what the ingredients were if you wanted to eat with the rest of the family; which you had to!

Ever had to drink cows milk (non-pasturized, run through a strainer) in the Spring of the year, when it smelled and tasted like "Wild Green Onions!!" Chocolate, etc., would not HELP!!!:biggrin:

I had never had the "Ridge Recipe" before this year, and it's different than what I'm used to, but still delicious. :yum:

I wasn't picky about food growing up, although it took me a while for I would eat au gratin potatoes. But I did (and still have) two foods that I absolutely would not eat--any tuna from a can, especially tuna on toast, and sauerkraut. It was like an epiphany when I discovered grilled tuna.

I have had some people say they would never eat blue crabs, and I came back with "Do you Eat Chicken?"

:rolleyes:

I have tried scrapple, but don't care for it. I think if I hadn't witnessed it being made, I would be ok with it...

:yeahthat:

Mattingly Family out of Hollywood/Leonardtown have the best recipe...only because I particularly dont care for Stuffed Ham but every once in awhile...what I have had was my familys recipe. I also have to agree with TT Shaffers is pretty da*n good too.

Well, if people ever saw how most of our food gets "made," they would probably not eat most of it. :wink:

It's all what you grew up with. What we're used to here is not "normal" in other parts of the country and vice versa.

I think I'm the only one in the family that doesn't eat scrapple, I just can't do it.
