The Food: Internal Animal Organ Delicacies

The Italians, never wasting anything, always put each and every part of the animal to use, in order to eat.  There are the stories of eating stuffed goat eyeballs (it is true) and of course one of the most popular which remains popular today, is trippa, Tripe Soup, which is cow intestines.  While it sounds morbid and bizarre, remember, very often for the poor Italian and/or Italian immigrant, it was this for dinner, or nothing at all.  Escarole soup only takes a hard laborer so far.
