THE FULL STOMACH

Before we entirely leave the subject of edible stomachs, here's a display that I saw at the Minnesota State Fair last week.  More about that later.  There in the diary building was a fascinating model of a cow's stomach, with explanatory notes, and a small boy who might or might not have been trying to guess the breed.  (It's clickable if you want to see more detail).  I know that some early haggis recipes did indeed feature cow stomach rather than sheep. Given the size, you could have had yourself quite a feast.
