Eating cholesterol does not make you fat.

It's amazing the number of people who have no idea what cholesterol is and what it does. Derp cholesterol kills you derp.

The irony is that when you have to have a valve replacement because of the cholesterol, one of your options is a pig valve.

The solution to a pig brain surplus is a pig heart supplementation.

well it makes sense.... this is zombie food, not for human the living consumption.

Who would eat milk gravy!? Yuck. I mean I know there's deliscious pork brains to make it yummy, but eating gravy is just too far for me.

I have actually eaten some of this before. Kind of tastes like tuna crossed with cat food and horrible.

The name of the product alone wasn't enough of a hint?

Brains = lots o' myelin sheath = lots o' cholesterol. Yum.

I would not recommend eating this.

Brain (any animal, including humans) can contain Prions that can lead to something akin to Mad Cow Disease in humans.

You may not exhibit symptoms for many years, often decades.

There is no way of knowing if you will get it, and there no method of treatment.

I think its funny that when you look at the ingredient list it is really straightforward, unlike some packaged goods this, despite being crazy high in cholesterol seems pretty legit.

Sounds even better than milk steak.

This would not cause obesity. It would cause your heart to explode.

While it has been established that brains contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human blood stream.

huh? without cholesterol you would die

[–]TonalArchitect 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, and without blood you would die. But if you had 1100% more blood than you were designed to on any given day, it might be detrimental to your health.

Too much of a good thing and all that.

Nearby Piggly Wiggly stocks them, Scrambled Eggs and Brains is apparently a delicacy, if you like hospitals. Want me to send you some? They smell absolutely awful.
