    Head cheese? WTF is head cheese?!?!?!?

    Head cheese (AmE), or brawn (BrE), is a cold cut that originated in Europe. A version pickled with vinegar is known as souse. Head cheese is not a cheese but a terrine or meat jelly made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig (sometimes a sheep or cow), and often set in aspic. Which parts of the head are used can vary, but the brain, eyes, and ears are usually removed. The tongue, and sometimes even the feet and heart, may be included.

    And you have just returned the favor....vomit

    You are completely welcome!

    That description of head cheese totally made my stomach turn. :sick:

    My dad made head cheese growing up on a farm in 1940's...hearing the actual blow by blow is 100x worse. The word congeal is used a lot.

    Where's a vomit smiley when you need one?
