The belly draft I've just bought as it has nipples on it.

Now I know a bit about anatomy so I don't know why I was unexpectedly surprised when I saw them.

I am very 'disturbed' just thinking about it.

Would you eat it?

Yuk - no way but then I am veggie what is a belly draft anyway?

cheesesarnie · 02/02/2010 22:10

whats a belly draft?

ArizonaBarker · 02/02/2010 22:12

I think I would find it difficult to eat nipples.

TidyBush · 02/02/2010 22:20

I haven't had belly draft since about 1975

'twas rank then - sounds like it's not changed much

cheesesarnie · 02/02/2010 22:29

its meat then?

if you can eat a belly why is a bit of nipple not so good?is it because it makes you see what it is?

NonVinaigretteRien · 02/02/2010 22:31

Oh that's thee second consecutive thread I'm putting Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwww! on

No, I fear that would put me off too. The thought of putting a knife through them....

Belly draft?

chaostrulyreigns · 02/02/2010 22:39

Belly draft is the underside of a pig.

Apparently it is very nice and crispy on the skin but soft and melty on the flesh when it is slow roasted.

It is very cheap too.

Just can't imagine nipples on my crackling.

Ooouch at crackling nipples.

GrimmaTheNome · 02/02/2010 22:52

I think I'd give the nipply bits to the dog. He wouldn't care.

LetThereBeRock · 02/02/2010 22:53

You learn something new every day on MN. I've only ever heard of it being referred to as belly or pork or pork belly.

I eat it quite often.I love it but I've never found nipples on any that I've bought thankfully.

GrimmaTheNome · 02/02/2010 22:54

(haven't had belly pork since I was a student. too fatty for my tastes now but when you were scraping by on a grant it went down well)

LetThereBeRock · 02/02/2010 22:54

Of not or sorry.

muggglewump · 02/02/2010 22:56

Ewwww gross.

I love belly pork but I've never seen any with nipples on and no, I wouldn't eat it.

assumetheposition · 02/02/2010 23:02

This happened to a friend of mine the other day.

It's pork belly - that's where the nipples are.

Get over it.

I probably wouldn't eat them though, just remove them and throw them.

Wolf's Nipple Chips! Getem while they're hot!

Give the nipples to your dog, cat or husband

It will be delicious,

mowcop · 02/02/2010 23:07

we keep pigs and it always comes back from the butchers with all the nipples on. I just whip 'em off and bang the whole lot in brine. MMmmmm, home made bacon.

chaostrulyreigns · 02/02/2010 23:11

Am starting to get paranoid that the 3 butchers SAW ME COMING.

You know when you get a song in your head and it keeps going on and on and on and you can't shake it?

Well I have am image of the butcher scoring the belly for me but not cutting the nips off. These pinky, fleshy, rubbery things keep popping into my head. Nothing can stop the images.

Am now finding it tricky to walk past my fridge because I know WHAT'S LURKING IN THERE.

You meat eaters are a weird bunch!?!

chaostrulyreigns · 05/02/2010 21:24

Just to let you know - it's still in my fridge.

And invading my dreams.

Complete wuss, me.
