The cholesterol in brains is surprisingly high.

Go work out for a few dozen hours, that should balance it out.

Seriously. That's a lot of cholesterol. And that's being said by a choloesterol-stoked boomer.

your body is gonna be fine at producing cholesterol without you eating it raw from brains

your cholesterol levels are determined more by your weight than diet, although diet does contribute. but if you have a lot of body fat your baseline cholesterol levels will just be higher even if you don't eat much of it.

if you're skinny you can probably eat some brains now and then and suffer no ill effects, until the prions kill you horrifically 15 years later.

people in the dark ages doing farm labor eating mostly just bread or gruel for weeks on end needed to occasionally eat sources of fat, salt, cholesterol etc, we have the opposite problem today

I have never eaten pig balls but I have eaten rocky mountain oysters. Not awful, but I have also never been possessed to eat them more than once.

That explains a lot actually. I ate some oysters way back and now all I do is lay about and filter poo poo

Brains are basically old world avocados. They occupy a similar culinary niche where they have a delightful unctuousness while being mild on flavor.

I had some brains on toast this morning with homemade black pudding and it was delightful.

I ate an undercooked pork chop last week then was a little sick for a few days after. I probably got them little worms burrowing into my brains and flesh now.

Nope, just lava-butt so far.

The thought of literally pooping out another creature’s brains is one I have not considered until this moment. It’s very BDE.

As a baby gay I went through a pretty hardcore goth/Victorian phase before I properly came out. I purposefully gave myself tapeworms to lose my goonly physique, as was cutting edge science during the Belle epoch.

That should Keep Mr T away*. Though tiny zombies may mistake your ballsack for a little brain, and considering their love of fresh human intestines, wouldn't mind the poo poo. So watch out.

Also, I have to say that, after reading this thread, my zero desire to eat animal brains is now less than zero.

I really love sweetbreads and fried lambs brains. I have a friend that makes the latter like fried chicken with a super peppery batter. I don't eat them very often though and wouldn't dream of getting them at a hot pot place.

Hot pot is really one of those places that always sounds way better on paper. It always makes me feel sick.
