Are you calling everyone a Cajun?
Is that a known species?
Eating organ meat must be a cultural thing.
I can’t ever remember my mother preparing liver or gizzards or mountain oysters. Her mother never did, either.
When they served fried liver at school I couldn’t start to eat it.
And I was cautioned at an early age to never eat squirrel brains. The story was poor people years ago ate squirrel brains and sometimes got the sleeping sickness and died.

And when we’d butcher a pig my father would never give away the ribs to our hired hands.
As he told me, how bad somebody must feel working for the other man, to get ribs when he butchered while the wealthy man ate hams and shoulders and bacon.
I didn’t know there was liverworst until I went to college.

A man in New York developed an extremely rare and fatal brain disorder after he ate squirrel brains, according to a new report of the case.

I eat liverwurst about once a year, usually with sweet onions, yellow mustard and limburger chees on white or dark bread.
Reminds me of my father, when we would indulge after mom left for a week.

Braunschweiger and a slice of onion on rye bread. So tasty, especially with a good lager to wash it down.
I love liverwurst, and this coming from someone who will not eat fried liver and onions or liver in any other form (except foie gras which is getting harder and harder to find)! One of my favorite sandwiches was Boar's Head liverwurst with a big slice of raw onion and a slice or two of sharp cheddar cheese on a good, crusty bread.
Now I've got to find a suitable replacement liverwurst.

Crickets are tasty. Roasted, they have a nutty taste.
Try the Aldi version. A little harder to find outside of Michigan are Koegel's or Kowalski. Koegel's also has great pickled bologna, if you're interested.
I rest my case...I knew there had to be some insect eaters in this thread.
Boudin??? That's from San Francisco!
Real New Orleans bread comes from the Leidenheimer Baking Company, period!

Correction: Boars Head SAID they were a premium brand.
I live in an area with a lot of meat processing plants. Knaus, Alderfer, Hatfield, Clemens, MOPAC, JBS, Leidy's and more nearby, and quite a few more out towards Lancaster County. Beef, pork and until a few years ago, chicken. The poultry plant nearby had a string of bacterial outbreaks, and changed ownership several times until, under Pilgrim's Pride, they killed a couple of people with lax sanitation. The building was razed and is now a used truck lot.
That said, I love Liverwurst, although I limit my intake to once or twice a year, and only eat what's locally produced.
Im not doubting you guys but is Liverwurst or braunschweiger any worse than say hot dogs or some other processed sandwich meat?
Of course they said they were. Because they WERE.
How could they make that claim? Because the buying public assured them they were...
How did the buying public know? Because Boar's Head never stopped telling them they were.
Bears, wolves, lions, and so forth, OK. Sometimes humans are thought of as food by other creatures.
When those other creatures are too small to be seen without a microscope, though, it goes from "straightforward" scary to creepy.
