leegreen 2,102 Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 I all ways thought tripe was a great food, not on its own but a good staple diet and I still will do unless someone tells me different, other than the water ting because I always had the thinking that if an animal were to catch large game it would always favor the offal.

martin 332 Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 tripe is ok for a bit of variety,but,certainly not for a main part of it's diet,because there just isn't enough goodness in it................ Martin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueCoyote 0 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 i still dont know what it is.. i heard it stinks to high heaven, especially on the way out.. or up. one friend said her dog vomited it all over the place and nearly made her vomit while cleaning up.

BlueCoyote 0 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 thats what google said too and here all this time i was thinking it was some sort of plant...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Plant ??? I seriously can't Wait to tell Hugh, my local Slaughterman / Butcher that one! Quite funny, actually; Just before I Really got to know Hugh - we're now established craic sharing mates, over his counter. Genuinely lovely guy - I found out the building I didn't know about was his Slaughter House. So I popped along there enquiring about some tripe. Hugh appeared out of a doorway ~ in his gum boots and blood spattered plastics I only vaguely recognised him as a face I knew from the small town. So I told him I'd come to enquire about the possibility of obtaining some tripe, for my Dogs. Without missing a beat and with totally straight faced sincerity this great little guy introduced me to Leitrim Logic: " Tripes ? " He said. " Sure! Only, could ye come back in around half an hour? Only they're still in the sheep. " FFS! I really must remember to remind him of that time. I nearly busted a gut getting out of there without pissing myself laughing at that one!

I nearly busted a gut getting out of there without pissing myself laughing at that one! hey at least you know its fresh! i have heard of people buying it in the can.. which supposedly stinks the worst. i cant say that i have EVER seen anything like that canned up in the grocery store.. pig brains yes... i thought it was Vienna sausages - the tin looks the same - was for sale at a little Mexican store.. but have seen "tripe" in the plastic wrap section. we just call it cow stomach lol and yeah i was thinking plant or fish lol now i know better!! every time i saw it mentioned and recommended to my dogs i would just look dumb.... "what the hell is a tripe??" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pencoed hunter 7 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Were can you get it from? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
driller killer 33 Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Were can you get it from? A cow..... You can buy ready packed in half decent pet food shops, minced or chunks. probably not the cheapest but easy, wann ask for green tripe from butchers etc, un bleached. My neighbour thought it was a fish un till i told him, his been feeding his mutt for ages on it, funny looking bloody fish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
