Kinda like chicken gizzards...<em>chewwwwy</em>. There's another "Testicle Festival" somewhere up around Rockford, too...can't remember the name of the little town. We were gonna hit it last year, but Ziggy wound up having to work that weekend. They had the "I had a ball" t-shirts, too. I’ve only had Rocky Mountain Oysters once, but they were really good.

I've never had the old Rocky Mountain Oysters before, but of course I've also been to China several times so who knows. Thing is I'm sure that they're ok deep fried. I'd probably go with the lamb for starters. One correction/warning - if you ever travel to Wisconsin, enter a tavern and order fried cheese balls, don't say I didn't warn you. They're "cheese curds" my man and calling them otherwise will target you as an Illinoisan pdq. BTW - I'm glad that you didn't pull a vonster and call the post, "Meanwhile in a blue state..."
