What are you talking about? Liver, heart, intestines, tripe and bone marrow are all pretty common.

My guess is our standard of living rose to the point we could afford to throw away perfectly good protein.

Probably because they come from poor ass cultures who historically had to eat that slop because they had nothing else to eat. They had to make a goat last 6 months.
Our ancestors were smarter so they didnt have to eat cocks, balls, tongues and buttholes. |

Because most of them are just Naaassssty. Mom made me eat liver,,,,,,,,,,,,once.
Probably the lack of being able to prepare them, along with the stigma that many have very high fat and cholesterol content. The last part is a wild guess, so take it as it is. |

Because it’s disgusting
And I’m not poor I can’t get by the fact that many organs are filtration or depositories for poison and waste. Lung yuck. TB. |

I’m going with because we don’t have to.
We live in the land of plenty. So a lot of us have never had to eat the “extras” to survive. |

Some are pretty high in cholesterol.
Like chicken livers for example. I love some good chicken livers and gizzards though. Foie Gras is also a favorite that I have on occasion. Got a bowl of kick ass Menudo the other day, soo good, and a hangover remedy.. Made my fiance' kinda gross out. Too absorby sponge. "Lingua" breakfast taco's are good if done correctly. Still freaks me out tasting something that had the ability to taste me back though. |

Fowl liver is/can be amazing, but beef liver is just plain nasty. |

I eat it, even before I came here. Chicken and pig liver are both good. Hearts are good. Most of what I've tried is good, organ meat wise.
I think most people in the west just THINK they're gross, so they've fallen out of favor. |

Europeans eat the shit out of that stuff, OP. Done well, it's delicious. Proper preparation takes skill and lots of time. In general, American chefs aren't as patient.

We come from the country... My dad always tells us that his uncle was fond of saying... "I ain't never been so poor I had to eat organs".....
Personally, I'm a selective organ eater.... I like the ones that taste good.......

It occurred to me the other day that we generally think of meat as only edible if it’s muscular tissue, at least for the majority of folks I know. Having said that, I know plenty of people for other countries or cultures that have zero problems what so ever chowing down on literally anything that contains protein. Guts, bones, insects, it’s all protein and our body can process it just the same as animals do in the wild. I haven’t really adopted this culinary philosophy but I do wonder why that is the case. Can it be purely based on taste? Maybe nutritional value? Food hierarchy in history is fats and oils followed by protien and trailed by vegetables, legumes, fruit. Organs are typically rich in fat and protien. We have an overabundace of both in our modern diet, so we eat our preferred sources, which are generally less "flavorful." |
