Please don't ever underestimate "southerners." And never, ever let the accent fool you!!! Big mistake!

Well...not "mountain oysters," but, in Texas..."Rocky Mountain Oysters" are th' thang, they used to belong to bull calves. They are aka, "Calf Fries." Those are really good...with a little Tabasco on 'em !

Yes I have eaten Mountain oysters. In fact I've helped hold down the poor little calf while someone took a knife and turned him from a bull into a steer. On one ranch where I once helped they would take the rather fresh meat that resulted and hold them over the branding fire until done and then partake of the result. Not bad.

OK..........OK...........!!!!!!!!!! I have ate bull balls!!!
It was at the Big Texan, in Amarillo , Tx. It was done on a dare of course.
Thank the good Lord , the bull balls didn't come out of the kitchen looking like balls. They were called,,,,,,,"calf fries". They looked and tasted liked pieces of fried beef fingers .......kind of stale ones at that.
I was not impressed, nor grotested really. I prefer to have the sirloin part of the beef myself.
But I admit it , I took the dare, I ate the balls...........

Dede, you are so much fun. I get the biggest kick out of you. I could swear you were from south eastern bayou country with your "crazy cajun" personality. A compliment.
Once a "brother" tried to trick us all into eating them. He arrived one day with a plate full of samples of them garnished with little toothpicks. I took one bite and it tasted like really bad soy protein. I promptly went to the bathroom and spit it out. Upon returning to the livingroom, I discovered angry outbursts and the "brother" bookin' it through the front yard to get the speck out of there.
I have always sworn to get even with him someday.What a jerk. His wife always had the most sour, pinched look on her face. I wonder why. NOT!
