Pork brains are quite good. I soak them in cold salt water for half an hour or so and then very carefully take the membrane off the outside of them. Dip in flour, fry in oil till golden brown and crispy outside, add salt and pepper to taste. GREAT AS A SANDWICH!! We had them after butchering when I was a kid and I fixed them for my kids and they loved them. It's been awhile...gotta go get me some!! Good soul food! I've seen them canned in gravy but haven't tasted that. I've known people who scrambled them with eggs too.

I have eaten cooked pig, chicken, duck and pigeon brains before and lot of Asian (specially male alcohol drinkers) eat cooked pig brain. Also, have seen a video of Chinese eating live monkey brain (very brutal though). So what's the big deal of eating brain? Well, if it is cooked in a nice way you may not know it is a brain and is so delicious but got to be careful with its contents of fats and cholesterol which will shorten our life. That's what I know from my doctor.

Several times when I was a kid. My Mon, used those with spinach to make the stuffing for home made ravioli.In southern Italy that kind of meat is very common.Cow brain are the best and also high in protein.

I saw it on the Discovery Channel! Brains, balls, and bugs are off my list for things to eat! The monkey brains were marinated in spices before being cooked. Yuck!

Calves brains, they were boiled then chilled and cut into slices and served with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon. They are delicious if prepared right and they MUST be really fresh.

Yes, calf brains, I didn't understand what it was at the time of consumption.
They are delicious!!
Must be prepared by a knowledgible chef.
Only did it that one time...don't hate me for being ignorant..

Human brains? No.
Calves, pig, lobster, crab, shrimp, crawfish, lots of other seafood? Yes.
Not my favorite, but I've eaten them.
