For most people, meat is indispensable for three meals a day, and the most commonly eaten meat is pork.
After all, the price of pork is relatively low, and the taste is quite good.
Of course, in addition to pork, other internal organs of pigs can also be made into many delicacies.
In daily life, people often eat pig intestines.
Why are beef intestines and sheep intestines so rare?
My answer is: If you want to eat it, you may not be able to buy it!
Everyone should know that beef is relatively expensive.
Therefore, many people believe that beef intestines must be very expensive.
In fact, the nutritional value of beef intestine is very high, and it contains very rich protein.
Therefore, it can be seen that beef intestines are also very popular.
After the cow is slaughtered, the intestines are usually sold directly to shops that make offal soup. They process the intestines first and then use them to make offal soup.
Of course, the same is true for sheep intestines.
For some places that sell haggis soup, they will need a lot of sheep intestines.
In fact, in addition to being made into delicacies, sheep farms also have a more important role, which is to make catgut for use in medicine.
Catgut is often used during surgical operations, mainly to suture wounds.
Sheep intestine contains natural collagen. Wounds sutured with catgut do not need to be removed. It can be directly absorbed by the body.
Therefore, in daily life, beef intestines and sheep intestines are rare, mainly because their prices are relatively high, and you may not be able to buy them if you want to eat them.
Pig intestines should be a delicacy that many Chinese Han people like to eat. Because the output of pig intestines is relatively large and there are more people who like to eat pork, the market share of pig intestines is very high.
Even so, beef intestines are not eaten by anyone.
It’s just that we rarely see beef intestines for sale around us.
