Greybeard Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Originally posted by mojoworking Isn't it Chitterling and bag? I've no idea what the "bag" was, but chitterlings (known in the USA as "chitlins") are pigs innards of some description An old pal of mine did his apprenticeship as a pork butcher and he did once explain to me what part of a pig's anatomy this came from. Sadly I can't now remember but have remembered my resolve never, ever to eat it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I can't now remember but have remembered my resolve never, ever to eat it hiya Greybeard, you don't know what you are missing, the "Bag " is the pigs stomach. It's lovely with salt and vinegar and a couple of slices of bread and butter, just try a little it's best bought from a butchers such as Beres or another pork butchers. deecee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Princess Limo's..Boys playing with toy soldiers..The Milk cart pulled by horse..Policemen blowing whistles to comunicate..and Dick, Jock and Snowy on the Radio.. The Light Program and the Home service..and the football results on Saturday Night...Horice Bachelor on luxemberg flogging his method of winng the pools..and Tommy Sleel Singing "Butterfly".

hazel Posted December 31, 2004 Author Share Posted December 31, 2004 And listening to the 9 o clock news during the war, which we all had to be silent for before my dad went on night shift. People who came to the door lugging suitcases out of which they sold goods. The smell of the coalfire when just lit. Cold feet on linolium when you went off the pegged rag rug and the nights spent cutting and pegging the new rug to replace the old one. The sheer delight of getting the long white official envelope through the letterbox which said you had won a scholarship. Being on National Assistance when my dad was blinded in a steel works accident. Being the only child at High School on free dinners. Seeing my dad with a white Stick. Some good memories some bad.

You just don't know what you're missing. if a local butcher sells it, ask him to cut you a small piece and try it. It's no different to eating tripe. we also use to eat udder. Use to be favourite Saturday night tea, Bag, tripe or udder, bought from the Castle Market each served with vinegar, salt and white pepper, with bread and butter. regards Tazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
