Nobody said eyeballs.

Many types of chorizo are made from salivary glands and lymph nodes.
This is especially what you want if the chorizo is being
used to flavor ground beef. It gives it a sort of "merging"
quality.

For just a staight chorizo effect, ordinary ground pork without
the organ meat is fine (but the seasonings are still all-important).
So there's room for both types.
