Just thought I would share this
Chitlins, often spelled chitterlings, are a type of food made from pig intestines.
In the US, they are a common soul food offering, though their cleaning and preparation
can take a good deal of time.
Because chitlins are intestines, they have to be cleaned with extreme care.
They can contain fecal matter, which can translate to ingesting numerous forms
of bacteria including E. Coli, yersinia, and salmonella. If chitlins are sold uncooked,
they need to be cleaned, and hand picked of any remaining fecal matter. Guides on
cooking chitlins often suggest boiling them for 5 minutes to sterilize them prior to preparing them.
Churros, sometimes referred to as a Spanish doughnut, are fried-dough
pastry-based snacks, sometimes made from potato dough, that originated in Spain.
