I like fried chicken livers (with white gravy to dunk them in.) It's
not a problem because it's not something I eat very often; when I get
stuck going to Cracker Barrel, or some fried chicken places that have
'em on the menu, I order them there. Maybe once a year.

Also I like spicy foods a lot hotter than my wife does. So I make them
just barely hot, and then add cayenne or jalapeņos to my portion.
