Is Veal for dinner?

[MrBern]

I think of Veal as quite the goldenage meal.
whether it was VealChop, Veal Parmagiana or Wiener schnitzel

It hasnt been popular the last few years, but its making a comeback.

Veal to Love, Without the Guilt

It is nice to read about some in the industy are reevaluating their veal raising practices.
Now if only we can get rid of the foie gras.

I once ate veal three nights in a row while I was dining on a corporate credit card at some fine establishments in DC. Unintentional, but there you go.

My friend in Greenpeace didn't think to highly of me for it.

The Calf's Head Club

When the restoration of Charles II. took the strait waistcoat off the minds and morose religion of the Commonwealth period, and gave a loose rein to the long-compressed spirits of the people, there still remained a large section of society wedded to the former state of things. The elders of this party retired from public sight, where, unoffended by the reigning saturnalia, they might dream in seclusion over their departed Utopia. The young bloods of this school, however, who were compelled to mingle in the world, yet detesting the politics which had become the fashion, adopted a novel expedient to keep alive their republican sentiments, and mark their contempt of the reigning family. They accordingly met, in considerable numbers, at some convenient inn, on the 30th of January in each year, -- the anniversary of Charles's death, and dined together off a feast prepared from calves' heads, dressed in every possible variety of way, and with an abundance of wine drank toasts of defiance and hatred to the house of Stuart, and glory to the memory of old Holl Cromwell; and having lighted a large bonfire in the yard, the club of fast young Puritans, with their white handkerchiefs stained red in wine, and one of the party in a mask, bearing an axe, followed by the chairman, carrying a calf's head pinned up in a napkin, marched in mock procession to the bonfire, into which, with great shouts and uproar, they flung the enveloped head. This odd custom was continued for some time, and even down to the early part of this century it was customary for men of republican politics always to dine off calf's head on the 30th of January.

As glorious as that all sounds... I can't eat chicken or anything straight off a bone... I don't think I could eat a head. *I sure hope I read that right so I don't come off like a moron.* *too late*

Morons are very golden-age.
Get thee to a soup kitchen.
