Not an issue for me, since whenever I see a cow, I think of a ribeye. However, while the animal from which my food is from doesn't phase me, I have an issue eating it while it's alive and kicking, e.g., the live shrimp, squirming worms in cheese and that live squid thing in South Korea. I mean, unless it's necessary to close a deal where I personally will be amply compensated ($$ is the great equalizer), it ain't gonna happen.

You already dont like tongue, correct?? Plus cabeza and buche. How about tripe and sweetbreads? Foie gras? You have zero issue with pig tummy. We love our corky and we dont want to be nauseous for you; I am curious about your borderline.
Im amused by your ft user name and Cazu Marzu. I know these are different creatures.
hey how about that special coffee made by certain excretions of the coffee bean?

I love tongue - it’s fun how it’s there for Jewish and Mexican cuisine.
I haven’t had the civet coffee. I still haven’t had the fruit part of the coffee.

Tongue should not be a no-go for people. It's a muscle, much like gizzards (ones from poultry are delicious, at least how the French make them). That said, the process of preparing tongue (i.e., skinning it) is said to be rather laborious.
Coffee fruit eaten by a civet and the beans recovered from the excrement? I am w-a-a-a-y too cheap to pay for that stuff.

Shake Shack has as a relatively new menu item, the Black Truffle Burger, made with "real" black truffle sauce, gruyere cheese (my favorite for sandwiches), and crispy marinated shallots. It was actually very good, though next time I'd probably ask for some extra cheese.
