Sweet Bread?
What is your idea of what it is?
I have my ideas, but interested to hear others first.

GLANDS, common misconception is that sweetbreads are testicles.

Theyre not, theres two types, throat and belly sweets, throat is the thyroid gland the belly is the pancreas.

Thyroids actualy taste sweet when compared to other meat from an animal, hence the name i guess.

chroma is perfect in his reply, I was a slaughterhouse butcher for 15 yrs and can fully confirm his answer

So its not bollocks

[xant14]

I agree too with chroma, altho I was brought up eating pigs bollocks, and it was bollocks. And the name we attached to it was sweetbread. Me, gmb and chimera was just talking and i said the same as chroma, well, almost. I thought it was the oesophagus in the neck because I had ordered it at a restaurant, and it definately wasn't bollocks.
Just clearing things up.

Ive been having a long running arguement with my mrs about what they were I thought they were the glands and not the swallocks

Whatever they are, if the good lord meant us to eat em they'd be covered in chocolate.

The aesophagus i call Thrapple, i also eat that too.
Have you noticed its getting extremely difficult to get your hands on offal?
I used to love stuffed hearts and faggots, getting ingredients to make either is becomming quite the challenge.
I can get an abundance of livers and kidneys, even getting tripe (which i really dont like) is becomming increasingly difficult.

People tend to just go for a slab of steak thats been pre dyed to look tastier than it really is.

My granny used to say you could eat every bit of the pig apart from its oink.
She fed us up to buggery on all sorts of game and meats, raised and killed allsorts of animals on her farm, yet hardly ate any meat.

There was a guy on "The F word" i think, maybe "the One Show" or something simmilar, anyway the guy ate an entire pig. i mean the lot, made soup from the arsehole.
Then he fed it to his family and friends.
Looked like a good night to be honest.

me and my brother ate the head of a pig. It was from one of these pig roast joints at the Bulldog Bash. I asked the stallholder what he did with the head, and he saved it for us. I french kissed it and had the tongue away, my bro had the eyes or something, all a bit of show to get the more squeamish honking.
