    I'd eat them...

    ...if I was stranded in a big dark dungeon with no apparent escape route, and THAT was the only food I had, maybe I'd eat a hand first though, my own that is, then the thing...

    Aren't bull testicles fairly common in Spain? Oh, and I probably wouldn't eat those.

    I'd have no problem eating that, I'd prefer them well done and deep, deep fried.
    I've already eaten some local delicacies on my few travels around the world, and nothing was really that bad tasting. It's all edible basically, depends on where your squeemish-ness lies. Ever had a blood sausage ? fried locust ? duck embryo ?

    I've had goat testicle, I think that's probably tastier (I have not had sheep balls), since the sheep are usually really fat, you'd end up chewing on a lot of fat.

    From the linked article: "...testicles, which are part of Middle Eastern diets...". And where is the source of so much conflict these days?

    Just kidding...really.

    I agree with Sinan, goat is the way to go. Coated with a nice tempura batter, lightly deep-fried in either butter or extra-virgin olive oil, served with sweet/sour sauce and/or horseradish, for dipping. Not exactly Middle-Eastern preparation, but I like it for sports-watching snacks.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    I know blood sausages, we have those in denmark as well. basically, they originate from the old days (way back), when people were poor farmers and needed to use EVERYTHING from their slaughtered animals, they used the blood for sausage.

    nowadays, they are fried on a pan with honey or syrup on, tastes well

    It's all relative...someone from another part of the world may not be able to stomach that

    So Black Pudding is the same as blood sausages ? I have'nt a clue, is why I'm asking.

    There was a show on channel four called distraction.

    In the penultimate round contestants had to answer questions and every time they answered a question right they had to put a sheeps testical inside their mouth. Some had upto five-six in their mouth at once.


    We British have wierd senses of humour involving humilating people.

    I've had pigs balls before but the name was disguised in the form of "hot dog"

    mmmm.... Black Pudding.... mmmmmm..... Haggis.

    How about pig skin soup (with hairs still attached)? You can have a nice bowl of it in China Town in London

    Eyeballs... bit chewy.
    Monkey Brain (cooked)... bit like eating jelly and porridge mixed up.

    Also there were stories in Hong Kong about mainland Chinese eating... Camel Hump, Bear Paw and human fetus. The last one is allegedly available in hospital canteens and confers youthfulness to the consumer.
