Just got a craving for deep fried mushrooms (from reading about fried
shrimp in another thread).

Mmmmmmm.

Any other fans here?

Years ago, when I bought Kentucky Fried Chicken here in Oz, they used to
sell small deep fried mushrooms, also Sweetbreads as well... My late
wife and I always bought them for a snack.... I don't remember seeing
them still whenever I have gone into a Kentucky Fried outlet...

They were delicious...including those little Lambs Testicals as well!

I don't recall seeing either in KFC in the US, but then I wouldn't expect
to see sweetbreads on any fast food menu here. Few restaurants of any type
offer sweetbreads. I like them, but have never had them from lamb, only
veal.

Years ago I worked for a brief time for a very exclusive department store
that had an employee's cafeteria without equal. They often had scrambled
brains with eggs for breakfast, and they were delicious. This is also a
dish that is rarely found in the US.
