The Offal Episode

Most of the meat we consume is from the skeletal muscle of animals, which provides a great source of protein in our diet. However, the organs of animals are incredibly nutrient-dense and often overlooked. They are great sources of essential fats, minerals, and vitamins. The common misconception is that organ meat is not palatable. Of course, this depends on which meats and how they are prepared.
