The tune "Out of Town", mentioned in the context of the "School Dinner Song", was also a hit for Max Bygraves in the 50s and was featured in a film called Charlie something-or-other which I remember vaguely from the same era. (Just to bring a musical note to these epicurean discussions)

I have often wondered about the US aversion to eating offal. I once had a very senior Californian banker walk out on a business lunch when calves liver was served!

Silly fellow! It was delicious, as are sauteed sweetbreads (lamb's pancreas), devilled kidneys and heart curry.
