You know that the person is healthy, no diseases, philanthropic, and can handle a little pain, all in the time it takes to donate a pint! In all seriousness, after I was out of school (all greeks had to at least attempt to give blood for Greek Week), every time I was at the blood bank, I met someone interesting.
The Red Cross could teach the TSA and Match.com a thing or two about screening people.

I would given my blood type, but I like getting tattooed, and you have to wait a full year after getting one to donate.

I haven't had this in a long time, but one of my friends in Indiana used to soak onions in vinegar and let it sit for a while. When they were done, they came out sweet-ish. We used to sit on the porch and snack on them. They were so good lol

This reminds me of one of my family's favorite summer side dishes... We soak onions and cucumbers in vinegar for at least an hour, and pour that mixture over cooked fresh-from-the-garden green beans, and top it all off with slices of fresh tomatoes.

Add peeled slice cucumbers and refrigerate! It's an awesome, healthy snack in the summer.

Lol. The smells of both of them cancelled each other out, I guess. It was never potent after they had been soaking.

I have no idea. This was many, many years ago. I haven't made them in a while.

Chicken hearts.

I would have thought yuck until I was in a Brazilian Steakhouse in Rio and the waiter slid a pile o' sizzling chicken hearts with aorta and pulmonary arteries still attached from his skewer onto my plate. I decided to be a good tourist and give it a try. It was the perfect chicken flavor with a crispy surface pop and chewy interior. They were hot, juicy and salty. Perfect! When I go to Brazil now, I crave chicken hearts.

Ha ha ha...don't knock it til you try it!

I grew up being force fed liver and gizzards by my parents and HATE them. Trust me when I say I was surprised to like them.
