TEsticles...intestines...testicles...intestines... hmmm...
I have to say I don;t eat any pork, but if I had a choice, chitlins seem to be more widely accepted. I don't know.
I do know we are some creative people. My boyfriend and I talk about this all the time.
How we got the left over pig part and said, "Hey, if you biol 'em and do xyz with 'em, they taste kinda good." Okay I'm sure that's not how it happened.
But I was reading where the no lye relaxer came from and it started during slavery as well. Someone figured out that if you mixed beef fat, butter and something else, it actually straightens the hair out.
Then someone else added some other greasy additive to the mixture to make the first no-lye relaxer.
It is in this month's issue of Essence (it's like a whole hair segment).
I was like dang, you KNOW we created everything under the sun...okay I'm going off on tangents.
Back to testicles and intestines...
