Tangential, but I think you might appreciate: today I cooked an ox heart (well, half of one) for the first time ever.
That may be one of the meat items I have handled with most respect and awe; you get a very direct, tactile appreciation of exactly the size and muscle power (no nice marbling on the inside, that thing's pure protein) needed to pump blood round a cow.
