I've had Labskaus and it tastes better than it looks <g>.

I'm from Germany, now living in the US, and my least
favorite meal (my dad's favorite) is something called
"Gelinge".

It's sweet and sour heart and lungs. The heart isn't all
that bad, but the texture and taste of lung is something
I'll never want to experience again.

Blutwurst was also one of my least favorites.

On the other hand, our special Christmas sauce looks yucky
and the ingredients sound as if somebody threw everything
they had left over into a pot, but it tastes great and my
American husband and his family love it, too.

It's all sorts of roots cooked with Kassler (smoked meat)
and then ground up.
Add gingerbread (a really simple kind) and Malzbier (a
sweet, non alcoholic beer), lemon juice and a little sugar.

It's a silesian recipe and the sausages you eat with it are
only made for Christmas and New Year.
