Liver, UGH

OH Juli · October 30, 2007

Having had my blood work done at 6 months out it was determined that I am a bit low on Vitamin B 12. I thought I'd just add sources to my diet instead of taking a supplement.

I went to foodtv.com found a recipe, went to Whole Foods, bought some liver, cooked it up all like I was told.

Took a bight and immediately thought is tastes like a dirty barn smells. But the second bight wasn't too bad.

I didn't realize I was hurrying it up in my mouth.

By the third bight I knew it was all going to come back up.

OH For the love of god, this is horrible.

This is the worst PB to date. I write in present tense because as soon as I think I am done, there is more. It's like an informercial, "No wait, there's more."

The lesson to take away from this LIVER=BAD.

I had never eatten liver when I was a kid because my parents hated it. When I had my first job as a salid girl in a 5 star resturant the chef Ali made liver and he told me to taste it to see if it was seasoned properly. when I told him I had never had liver before he told me to try it. If I didnt like it I could spit it out. I think it was so tasty. and from then on I loved liver...if it was cooked properly. My grandparents have a tendency to over cook it and make it dry or chewy. chewy meat= bad

Yeah, I've worked as a chef and it was cooked fine. It was absolutely not over done.

It's a texture/band thing I believe for me.

My co-workers were digging it. I still work in a kitchen, hence being able to cook liver in the middle of my day...

I have always hated the texture of liver, and if I take a bite of something that has a similar texture, I start gagging. Oh, and the smell... I'm almost gagging just thinking about it.

My step-mom made beef stew once....she used liver in it. I knew it was liver the second I stepped in the door, and she insisted it was not. I went hungry that night, there was no way I was going to eat that, she finally 'fessed up the next day.
