  Sweet breads vs tiramisu? Is there a competition between fried thymus and pancreas and a cake made out of cookies and marscapone cheese? BTW my great grandmother would recognize the blood pudding, sweet breads and tripe. She was Irish. I'm pretty sure there's a lot of great gran's who'd recognize the others.
