    Im currently watching this in August of 2019. this video harkens back to a time where when animals were raised solely for the purpose of feeding a family, because grocery stores weren't really a thing the way they are now. And as you said, every part of the animals were utilized in some way. People had large families with lots of children. For example, my great grandparents had 12 children by 1931. this was during and after the great depression where jobs were scarce and food was even scarcer. And my great grandmother would have a few recipes for every single part of the pig, cow, or chickens they raised solely to feed the entire family. I truly and honestly respect the way you paid homage to that, whether that was youd intent or not it was awesome. I have some of those recipies that were handed down to me by my great grandmother after her last return home from the hospital at the end of her hard, but amazing life. You rocked this breakdown. thank you for sharing this.

      In English you are just talking about experience - working as a butcher to learn the trade - The word you are looking for Geselle in German is not really used much anymore in English - but there is the old word 'Journeyman' - It is used for someone who continues to learn their trade. So an apprentice is the first step, then you continue your journey. So a journeyman butcher or a journeyman baker or a journeyman xxxx

    I worked as a cashier when I was a kid in our meatshop some 10 years ago, and I was always in awe about how precise and fluid whenever my older relatives butchered an entire pig. Before I worked in our shop, I always thought that there was only one way to prepare pork, just chopping.

    the blood is awesome to make "morcilla lebaniega" 😋 we love it in Spain, then the insides, stomach etc, is used in a dish called "callos" which is chewy but tasty, everything is cut into small bits to make it easier to chew, its usually boiled with chorizo and chickpeas 😋, and some vegetables like onions, berza, leek and carrots.

      USDA's ban on lungs is generally couched in terms of food safety. Fluids-specifically, ones that might make you squeamish, including stomach fluids-sometimes make their way into the lungs of an animal during the slaughtering process. I am sure if prepared right, it is not an issue. Furthermore, I have an issue with it because Haggis, Scotland's national dish prime ingredient is sheep lung, and I am not a big fan of government in general.
