Do people still eat chitlins?

[IllmaticDelta]

Slave food. We free now.

it's not slave food

 

[Mowgli]

They must've been slaves......

Poor farmers

 

[Mowgli]

..and pig, chicken, and duck feet

Fish eyes. 2. Chicken brain

Anything can get it

No its not "well" known... and that still does not mean they ate chitlins...... and who said its the worst part?

You got high end Japanese and Offal spots offering intestines as a delicacy for a grip now......

White folks been eatin chitterlings.......

nikkas started eatin chitterlings like that "after" slavery...... not during....

Black people did eat those inner parts during slavery but that doesn't make it "slave food". People have been eating those inner parts way before the Atlantic Slave Trade existed....Tripe/Chitlins is global cuisine



Tripe (from French: tripe, of uncertain origin) is a type of edible offal from the stomachs of various farm animals.[1][2][3]

Eat slave food in 2015 brehs

This is where i can't take you seriously.

They ate them during slavery but that doesn't make it slave food. People have been eating stomach/intestine parts around the world since forever and way before the black people exited in the new world/americas

 

[IllmaticDelta]

i don't see a problem with it.

i don't eat that chitlins personally, but some of the best foods come from people trying to make do with what they got.

oxtail is outrageously delicious and thats considered scraps.

Chicken feet too. And they're good for you.

Overtime stuff like that just becomes embedded in the culture and cuisine.

Im with you on everything but chicken feet is

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Again..... Offal(Animal Organs) have been a part of the European diet prior to the slave trade........ You can ask any old German or Irishman that.....

Those weren't "bad" cuts of meat..... Your high end cuts of sausages are wrapped in pig intestines for God's sake..

Exactly

at swine


at chitlins

Never had swine a day in my life, and unless there's a gun to me, my wife, or family/friend's head, I never will.

 

[IrateMastermind]

I ate them when I was younger (6-9) now nah. Just douse it with some hotsauce and they good.

Specially since on one thankgiving day, my stepdad was cookin them...

and forgot to clean them all the way , y'all can have that

you can't eat everyones chitlins

Spoiler

i understand the scarcity of food during slavery (fukking cacs ), but it's 2015. We're fortunate to have affordable cuts of protein from other sources

...

 

[IrateMastermind]

[IrateMastermind]

[NSSVO]

man nikkas are so self hating and brainless it's shameful be proud of your culture and heritage. my fam is from the islands and i have no shame or would ever look down on shyt like tripe, blood pudding, and what not that some people back home like to eat. let some french cacs start making chitlins in a fancy restaurant and serve it with a fancy sounding name and see how fast most people who look down on it would start eating it. even worst let it become popular and they make a shyt load of money off of it and see how quick the same black people that looked down on it would be crying culture appropriation.
