I like them also. Used to be a staple at least once a week growing up as it was a cheap meat back then.
Those guys traveling around sampling food, got nothing on me. I'll try anything once. There isn't much I can say that I didn't like. Perhaps the cooking of a particular person I could pass on, but certainly not for the food being cooked.

It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?

True but deep fried chicken gizzards are even better. I like things with crunch.

How on earth is it possible for two people to be identical, well, we look slightly different, smiling. The worst is apple pancakes, sorry, pancakes with apple chunks that are raw, creepy crawly, still makes my skin crawl!!! My Mamma cooked some absolutely hideous foods!!!!

Liver. Eating the organ that filters all of the poisons out of an animals system is not my thing. It was eating dog livers that killed all those Antarctic explorers remember. I have tried it
Onions I love. We get a lot of your onions over here when supply of the local stuff is short. "Product of USA" which I prefer to "Product of China" or the even scarier "Made from local and imported ingredients".
Safeway here disguise their evil imported frozen Canadian bacon by labeling it "Made from local and imported ingredients"!!! I asked them how one rasher of bacon could be made from two different pigs from two countries, they couldnt tell me. So I said if you cant tell me where its from, I dont buy it. I have recently found a couple of delis that make their own bacon for 13 bucks a kilo, beautiful it is too. Safeway sell the alien stuff for 8-10 a kilo.
Cant beat the ole white onion. Brown is good too, especially for cooking. Salad Onions are yummy too, you know, the large flat white onions. Then theres spring onions, not to be confused with the real "shallots" that look like garlic cloves. The spanish red onion is a bit over rated imo. Thats the onions that are commercially available here. Did you know that there are hundreds of varieties, but the supermarkets who rule production, only let us eat what they cab get cheap.
Prices in Aussie.
Spanish Red $3.99-8.99 a kilo
Brown .29c to 5.99 a kilo
White .99c to 6.99 a kilo
Salad $1.00 to 2.00 each
Spring $1.99-3.99 a bunch
Shallots $10.00 to 20.00 a kilo
a kilo is 2.2lbs.
Anyone can grow onions. You dont have to do anything to em except weed a bit when they are young.

I love fried chicken livers with a little hot sauce on the side. I don't care for any other liver.
As for onions, I live about 75 miles from Vidalia, Ga where they grow the famous Vidalia sweet onions. My Kiwanis club sells the every year for a Toys for Tots fundraiser. They are very popular and it makes for a good fundraiser. They sell for 10 lbs = $10.00 and 25 lbs = $15.00.

My dad and mom liked liver and onions (beef) so we grew up having that every month or two. It was the biggest fight trying to get any of us kids to eat it. My older brother would eat a little bite and then gag like crazy.
To this day I don't care much for it, but I don't mind a bite now and again if there is some around.
I love the onions, though.

Liver is another one of those with a texture I can't handle. And as someone said earlier, can't get past the part about what the liver does.

As far as I am concerned, all internal organs are not fit for the human palate, they all feel the same to me when I eat them. Heart, kidney, liver, tongue, not for this gal, memories of childhood.......ich. Have a wonderful, great day, health. Cindi

Liver and opnions, not my fav, but will eat it. Chicken livers I have never had fried. Must try it some day. I do make an awesoem chopped liver appetizer. Roast chicken livers w/ onions, chop and add some hardboiled eggand a little raw onion as well, salt and pepper to taste. Put on top of a cracker or toasted bread Yummy
