S.L. Trib wrote: Palatable peepers: The traditional Norwegian dish of smalahove is smoked sheep's head with all parts except the skull itself counted as delicacies. Especially tasty are the eyes, said a restaurateur quoted in a November Agence France-Presse dispatch from Voss, Norway, since they are the most-used muscles in the face: Eye ''just melts on the tongue.'' A visiting Englishman, served eyes, lips, tongue and ears, remarked that it is ''a bit of a visual challenge, but the meat is very good.''

A friend of mine married an Italian woman. The first time he visited her family in Italy, they had a sheep's head. They reserved the eyeballs for the guest of honor, my buddy. I think he avoided offending his hosts by offering them to his wife, which was a chivalrous act.

This place sells sheep's heads:

http://www.junglejims.com/

Actually, if it is at all edible in just about any culture in the entire world, this place sells it. Or will get it for you. This place is absolutely incredible, and it all started years ago as a local fruit and vegetable stand.

I was going to post a picture of smalahove, since I'm always interested in what things look like. For the first time, I decided that a picture could be too disturbing for people. I eat meat, but this dish I think maybe you have to grow up eating to appreciate :lol: .

I want to get a lamb's head and just sit it on my desk, in a jar. That would be so cool (and cruel and evil and seedy).

Everybody should taste my toes--they're not nasty at all. They taste like slightly salty raw potatoes; just like fingers.

They apparently know a bit about cranberries as well.

Sheep heads may eat cranberries (I'm pretty sure they do), but cranberries would never ever eat a sheep's head!! :o
