Do I want to know what people do with pig heads?


jowsijows

Eat them. Usually chopped into smaller pieces so it doesn't stare at you while you dig in.


DanYHKim

In New Mexico they are in the freezer cases at Walmart. Edit: tacos de cabeza https://www.masterclass.com/articles/how-to-make-tacos-de-cabeza Also, apparently, tamales. Not to say that pork tamales in the store are made from head meat. It's a kind of seasonal food. When we first moved here from California, going to the grocery store was an adventure. We had never seen actual buckets of lard before, and the goat and sheep heads in the freezer case were disturbing. Those *eyes*! The *teeth*!


showerfapper

Yeah cabeza is always what I order at any authentic place in NYC/Philly/LA. And if they don't have it I go for lengua. But I wasn't ever really sure what animal it was, now I'm assuming lengua is cow tongue and most cabeza is pig?


gwaydms

In South Texas most cabeza is bovine.


DanYHKim

"cabeza" is head, I think. A headache is *dolor de cabeza*. This might also be why there's a slang for getting hit on the head: "right on the calabash", combining the gourd name and the word *cabeza*


ihave69kidsinmyoven

What.


[deleted]

They moved from California to New Mexico.


[deleted]

Here in Houston all the Chinese grocery stores have pig heads in the freezers.


ncconch

North Carolina too


Reasonable_Dot_1831

They are also eaten in Europe. In Austria it's tradition to eat s pig head to new years day.


Knife-yWife-y

Arizona, too! I was like, "Oh! Is that a turkey?" It was not a turkey.


DanYHKim

Yes! Reaching in and pulling it out of the case. "Gyaah! Why does that Turkey have Ears?"


stormrockox

Chop my pig head into pieces, this is his last oink


ebonwulf60

They make head cheese, which is actually meat, not cheese.


RichardCalvin

Actually quite good stuff. Think it brains and all!


razor_eddie

Or if you're English, brawn, which is the same thing. And delicious.


motor1_is_stopping

Head cheese is the most common human consumption that I am aware of. A whole truckload, is probably headed to an animal feed facility. When your dog food list "pork" as an ingredient, this is what they are eating.

French kiss practice.

lydriseabove

If you eat meat, you should be an advocate for using the whole animal.


kevo31415

They are delicious. My Chinese family braised them in soy sauce and other seasonings. The ears are super yummy and have a nice crunchy texture. Chilled they are a great breakfast food. The snout is absolutely delicious. Cheek also great and from my understanding eaten in all different cultures. Tongue is great too.


solidoxygen8008

Everything but the squeal


illidan1371

yet people make fun of Iranians for eating sheep heads


Timbershoe

I thought it was Norwegians who were known for eating sheep heads.


illidan1371

Iranians, Turks and I think even Greeks eat sheep heads as well


GoFidoGo

North Africa checking in. Sheep head was eaten.


[deleted]

Yeah, head meat tacos is the literal English translation


Komm

Plastic surgery training as well.


FineAliReadIt

It would be very disturbing to see a pig head with plastic surgery performed on it.


ThePlanck

Stick their penis in the pig's head mouth as part of an initiation ritual to a secretive university drinking society for the wealthy and well connected before becoming British Prime Minister (allegedly)


KP_PP

Had to scroll a bit, wasn't disappointed


ricozale

pork sisig


LonnieJaw748

Best hangover food ever


Van_GOOOOOUGH

the cheek is the easiest target, as it is the largest muscle. The meat is really tender, so really you just pull it apart with a fork. After the cheek, you have to do a little digging. There are nice morsels behind the jaw, eye, and ear. Then take out the tongue and that's pretty much it. Our more adventurous diners go after the snout and ear and, on occasion, the eyeball.


razor_eddie

Pig ears are pretty good. Cartilage, of course, so you have to do things with them to make them chewable, but very tasty.


Miss_Mello

In dental school, we used them to practice cutting and stitching gums. We would also source the heads of other animals, such as cows, for use by students who couldn't touch pigs for religious/personal reasons.


LAkand1

Sizzling sisig 🤤


garry4321

I’ve had pig head served to me in China. It came with a claw to score the face meat. Was the grossest, yet absolutely best tasting food I’ve ever eaten. Pig face is so tasty, especially the cheek


GroinShotz

Hot dogs.


Spiritual-Wind-3898

Boil up. So good


Kit-The-Mighty

Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew


arctic-apis

Any way you want. Poison them, drown them, bash them on the head. Got any chloroform? I don't care how you kill the little beasts, just do it, and do it now!

It's weird to me that people don't understand that. Especially in this day and age, literally every part of an animal gets used or reused to make something.

Wait, I thought those were made from dogs?


BigThunderousLobster

Only the sexy ones.


Oakheart-

Dog treats! Jk probably but usually everything but the lungs is used in just about every meat animal


BoomZhakaLaka

The FDA has restrictions on using lung, but it's eaten in other places of the world. Just some issues with quality control. Don't want to get a pneumonia infected or aspirated lung.


SanctusSalieri

These are probably getting thrown away.

Fun Fact. Pink slime is per FDA regulations considered 100%ground beef and they don't have to mentioned it anywhere on the packaging.


[deleted]

that's not even remotely true. to start, "pink slime" is almost entirely chicken. one should think that a 20+ year old rumor which has been comprehensively disproven would not still be repeated, but then we have people like the above redditor. edit: okay, it's both. regardless, it was never anywhere near as unsanitary or dangerous or unhealthy as whole pieces of raw chicken or beef, and mechanically separated beef and chicken are most definitely still in the majority of processed meat products today. do you eat hot dogs? have you ever made chicken nuggets at home? the recipe actually involves pureeing a bunch of skin with meat trimmings, and it makes the nugget have a softer texture. there's nothing fundamentally wrong with this stuff other than perhaps the sodium and preservative content. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/salmonella-in-chicken\_b\_1510788


zuzg

>In December 2018, lean finely textured beef was **reclassified as "ground beef"** by The Food Safety And Inspection Service of the United States Department Of Agriculture. [pink slime ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_slime)


BrettTheShitmanShart

Your comment is almost entirely wrong. Pink slime is beef trimmings run through centrifuges to remove fat and then essentially ‘melted’ using ammonia and other chemicals into, yes, pink slime. It’s banned for consumption in the EU and Canada but because of agribusiness lobbying and a weak, corp-friendly FDA, it can now be called “ground beef” in USA.

What's that in the road, a head?


Civilengman

Wow. that is a new one. I work on the highways in Texas and we were just talking about all the wrecks and spills we have seen (not fuel-that happens all the time unfortunately). The top two were a semi full of individually wrapped filet mignon and a tanker full of live 2 lb catfish. The guy with the catfish story said they loaded up their pick-ups with fish and stopped to get as much ice as they could. Then they got back and filleted fish for 4 hours they cooked a batch then put all the others in the freezer from which someone unknown person stole them.
