I love Kidneys, whether they are cooked in Steak And Kidney (pie or suet pudding) or fried or whatever, just yummy.<br /><br />When I moved from England to the USA, I really missed my Kidneys, because people would just look at you in horror and say "you eat kidneys???"<br /><br />Thanks for commenting on my article about Lime Cay. I would love to go back there, in fact I would love to go back to Jamaica. That was the 3rd of 3 articles I wrote on Jamaica, the others being on (J)amaica and (K)ingston. Good use of the letters J K and L :)<br /><br />I love the food too - don't theink there is anything Jamaican I don't like to eat.Tony Paynehttp://www.delovesto.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4137802664622571509.post-18790263260895661492011-04-13T22:50:50.250-05:002011-04-13T22:50:50.250-05:00I have never tried organ meat of any kind, but you...I have never tried organ meat of any kind, but you make it sound delicious so I may have to. <br /><br />I am wowed by all the things that happen to your MC.
