Tripe

A bit pricy, all the way from the USA

Lancashire Calamari. I like it

And its only £7 per kg

That much

For example, there have been regular reports of strange lights over Stockport ever since Manchester Airport opened in 1937; a headless horseman is said to haunt the A56 Haslingden bypass; and in recent years there have been countless sightings of legless women in Preston town centre, especially at weekends. Astonishingly, a minicab driver who weighed less than 18 stone was recently spotted in Burnley.


But for many the greatest mystery of all is how the stomach lining of a cow became one of Lancashire’s favourite dishes. I am, of course, talking tripe - and not for the first time, as I’m sure my critics will claim.

Tripe for easter

Choose tripe for easter
For offal’s a blessing
Perfect for kids
Whose zinc levels need addressing

It might not be tasty
It might smell like death
But to know bovine stomachs
Is to know yourself

For the lesson of tripe
Is, life is first pain
Then sorrow, then torture
Then more of the same

Your children won’t learn
This lesson alone
You’ll need tripe’s assistance
To hammer it home

So choose tripe for Easter
They’ll thank you some day
When their futile dreams
Have long sailed away

Thankful their dreams
Didn’t sail away faster
As they heat up tripe
With noodles or pasta

In the microwave oven
Where dreams go to die
Served with a side
Of disappointment, or pie

It's world tripe day on Monday 24th Oct, are you ready to celebrate?

Tripe, it's the original wonder food!

Most people wonder why anyone eats it.

Ciorba de Burta

I bet it's good with a bit of salt and pepper and crusty bread

Mogodu/ tripe in a Tin is here!!!

2024 will be the Year of Tripe.

There will be new varieties available for you to sample and approve, but please be assured - it's all tripe!

When you have worked in an abbatoir, (Canada, aged 19) and visited a tripe producer's factory, (Sutcliffes, Scholes, aged 16) you will never eat tripe. .................

Short of going to Liverpool, Chorley, or Blackburn, it's hard to find decent tripe nowadays.
The last I saw in Wigan market hall was honeycomb, and had about as much substance to it as a wet string vest.
I like the thicker seam, and 'flat' tripe.
Also love pig's tripe, which is very versatile stuff when it comes to preparation.
Lovely stuff.

Lolly - pigs' tripe, done with a jerk marinade, and eaten with rice and black beans, is a thing of wonder.
