Blood sausage isn’t uncommon. We eat it in Belgium, France, Germany,… Delicious.
If you decide on rating animals, eat all of them. All the animals and all the parts of the animals.
They are not typically made with reindeer blood, as is incorrectly stated on Wikipedia. The alleged source for this claim even says so:
While most recipes use pig or cow blood, any sanguine supply will do. The Sami people of northern Norway use reindeer.
TIL there are still egregious errors on Wikipedia. I guess it could be a case of updated source?
I mean Sami are hungry, they’re not savages! Except I guess by some outdated definitions they are.
they’re not savages!
Did you think I somehow implied that they are? I’m confused
Die gute Blutwurst!
If you’re gonna eat animals, eat all the edible bits.
If you think these blood recipes are nasty, empty all food you have and don’t eat anything for 3-4 days. Then go to the store and get some blood food or ingredients and eat a blood dish. You’ll understand then very quickly why these became a thing nearly everywhere around the world. Hunger is the ultimate spice.
that explains tripe…and how hungry were early settlers to eat crayfish, they look like bugs.
crayfish IS bugs
So is Shrimps and both is tasty

German “Black-Sour” traditional north eastern dish doesn’t taste half bad…
and if you butcher an animal… you have blood available… why not eat it instead of wasting it.
also… black pudding/blood sausages and stuff are amazing
So if I think they’re nasty, I’m wrong because I’m not starving enough? Not a great counterpoint. They’re still nasty in that scenario, just a helpful nasty.
Aaaaaand that’s how you know someone who has never starved before. Truly starved. The stomach has it’s own opinion when left empty long enough.
It’s good though, that you never had. I’ve been through a lot, but the trauma of starvation is a permanent one. It’s best you don’t ever see the perspective of why people made food from blood.
Not every disagreement is worth arguing about
Well, it’s usually cow blood, but they are delicious. Just like blood sausage.
Used to eat black quiche in France as a kid, eventually my parents asked, whats it made of…Chicken blood. Bloody delicious, no pun intended.
Yeah and it tastes awful
Sheeps blood in some places
great with people with iron deficiency
They’d just have even more deficiency if you use their blood
One blood pancake with a side of iron deficient people, please!
Buh dum tiss.
You don’t?
Blood is good, a bazillion mosquitos can’t all be wrong
*buzzilion
Wait until you hear about flies from the farm.
Does their blood shake bring all the boys to the yard?
I hear they’re really buzzing about it
Fyi, blood can be used as a replacement for eggs in many recipes. I’ve even seen it used in savory macarons.
Hello this is your FBI agent. Please stay where you are, we will be there shortly.
Idk what’s worse if I think about it. When you think what eggs really are, blood almost seems more normal.
An egg is basically a queef.
What do you think a queef is?
Basically an egg.
Yolks on you…
A chunky queef if you will
Yum
We also have a few foods with blood in it in hungary. Most countries have them. Also fun bonus fact, because hungarian and finnish/estonian are related very distantly i understand their word for blood which is veri, for us its vér.
