what is "offal"?

It is the 'entrails' (left over bits ) and organs of an animal - it can include brain, tongue, feet, etc, etc

There was a documentary on tv a few years ago about a well known fast-food hamburger chain, who 'apparently' have been using a lot of 'offal' in their products (it showed you some of the stuff at a factory that was getting minced and made into burgers )

well geez....I was thinkin you meant "awful" and I didn't want to criticize....

after giving the "white pudding" some thought....

is it fruit as apple, peaches, oranges......

or are we talking melon balls?

One thing i remember from being a kid was Pickled Herrings.

My mom used to steam Pickled Herrings with onions and vinegar in a pressure cooker, did anybody have this meal?

Sounds disgusting but we used to love it but some ban on Herrings came in and it died a death.

My Mum said when she went to my Dad's Mum's for the first time when she was just a mere slip of a girl at 16 (approx 1969), she saw something bubbling away on the stove and went to investigate.

It was a sheep's head rolling around with the eyes flashing at her on every roll.

Not on the same scale but I can remember when we had chips, they were made in a pan of lard that set hard in between uses.
