RETURN to the dinner table? for some of us, this stuff never left. Too bad
offal is so darn expensive these days, and bread soup "souppa de pan" was
pretty common in my family. I remember eating a dish with lungs once, it
was good. I think we got them on the sly some how; not sure what the meat
inspectors think of that sort of thing.

Trippa - you bet!
