Human consumption

In addition to being used as a dog treat, pizzles are also eaten by humans for their purported health benefits…

That takes the phrase “eat a bag of dicks” to a whole new level.

TIL Snoop Dogg is just speaking middle English.

I don't see why people are getting squeamish about this, if you've ever eaten a hot dog or ground beef... You've already enjoyed it

I've been to a Vietnamese restaurant that specialized in Pizzle Pho. I had to Google what Pizzle is.. . Needless to say I didn't try it

Is that possibly “Bun Bo Hue An Nam”?

[–] FruitfullyYours@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Yes! In San Jose

Because you eat only dead animal tissue you're accustomed to?

[–] fin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

FYI, some dead animal tissue taste delicious. You should try them!

I know it tastes good, I was raised a meat eater, too. But I'm not interested anymore.
No cows, no pigs, no dogs, no dolphins. No legs, no wings, no butt cheeks, no ribs, no dicks. :)

They make low odor bull pizzles, too. Which of course means my dog prefers the full odor ones....

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

W-What... is the odor like??

[–] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Have you ever smelled a beefy desiccated detached dick before? Cool. Now cover that in dog spit eight or nine times and let it dry in between.

It smells like that.

[–] Plum@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Dead jerky? It's worse when it's wet.

[–] jqubed@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’ve read that the low odor ones have residual urine drained, but that doesn’t make much sense to me; wouldn’t it drain automatically during processing?

[–] johsny@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Pee is stored in the balls, not the pizzle

[–] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure those were on the table in the Worg Pens.

BG3 reference.

Pizzle is a Middle English word for penis, derived from Low German pesel or Flemish Dutch pezel, diminutive of the Dutch language pees, meaning 'sinew'.[1][2] The word is used today to signify the penis of an animal,[3] chiefly in Australia and New Zealand.[4]
