I guess some of the cheaper sausages contains offal. Look at the
ingredients in Vienna sausage - "lips and glands". Also potted meat
contains the same.

Who's familiar with souse or head cheese?

Have you discussed scrapple, the Pennsylvania German dish made from
pork offal?

Tripe?

My maternal great-grandmother owned and operated a tripe shop near
Accrington, Lancashire, from 1900 until 1949.

"Knight's Tripe Shop"
158 Whalley Road
Clayton-le-Moors, Lancashire

Items sold:

TRIPE:
Fatty Seam
Honeycomb
Ladies Tripe (Cow's uterous)
Elder (Cow's udder)
COW'S HEELS
SHEEP TROTTERS (delicious from all accounts)
SHEEP'S BRAINS (Boiled and eaten, gravy supurb)
PIG'S FEET (Trotters)
BLACK PUDDING
POLONY (Know it was a stuffed casing, but that's all)

There was an rustic eating place in the back, which consisted of a
table and a bench with salt, pepper and malt vinegar available.
Great-Grandma did a booming business during Word War II, as meat was
practically unavailable, and tripe made a good substitute.

Tripe is popular in Mexico in the soup, Menudo, but I don't like it.
Last time I looked it was almost $5.00/pound in California, but that
was several years ago.
