The octopus I’ve eaten “breaks” when you bite it. Tripe, like a rubber band, does not “break”.
If you get the chance to try tripe, do so. Assuming it is cleaned properly it really has very little taste on its own. The people I’ve talked to that eat it often just like the rubbery texture. I don’t really eat it any more because the texture is just kinda odd to me. I don’t mind eating it but I really get nothing from it so I just stopped. Interesting to try.
For sure. I’ll try (most) anything once, I’ve just never had an opportunity to. I mean, I’ve had deep-fried chicken cartilage, and that was good, however, crispy rather than chewy.
I think it is like chewing on a rubber band but no flavor.
Exactly this.
So it’s like tako (octopus)?
