    French Andouillette tastes like that?

    andouillette.jpg
    When an American contributes to WikiPedia:

    American andouillette is quite acceptable to the American palate. French andouillette, on the other hand, is an acquired taste and can be an interesting challenge even for adventurous eaters who don’t object to the taste or aroma of feces.

    Served cold and sliced thinly, the smell, taste, and texture may be mistaken for an andouille, but on closer inspection the texture is considerably more rubbery and the meat has a more feces-like flavor. While hot andouillette smells of feces, food safety requires that all such matter is removed from the meat before cooking.

    Feces-like aroma can be attributed to the common use of the pig’s colon (chitterlings) in this sausage, and stems from the same compounds that give feces some of its odors.

    What (s)he really means to say is that they taste like shit.
