OFFAL ZEITGEIST: Calf Brains and Pig Snouts: US Embraces Nose-to-Tail Menus By Bloomberg
Not so fast. While the rest of the world has been doing this for centuries, Americans are just starting to catch up when it comes to nose-to-tail eating. Nontraditional cuts of meat are popping up on menus from Portland to Miami. And people are loving them.
Brains and hearts capture the imagination, but the trend also trickles into meat cuts that are less exotic, but nonetheless were mostly ignored for decades. Think skirt steaks, flatirons, short ribs and briskets – things that used to be tossed off as the cheap stuff, or ground into sausages. While cost-cutting is still a factor, booming US meat production means there’s plenty of cheap protein around. So the zeitgeist is being driven by something more. David Maloni, an executive vice president of analytics at commodity researcher Arrowstream, said that younger Americans have more sophisticated palates and seek out more interesting food experiences.
