   Next time you go to such a restaurant try them.  Rocky Mountain Oysters
are the tenderest meat you will ever try.  Plus, they are delicious!  As
to their being aphrodisiacs, it is not true ( as if any aphrodisiac really
affects you other than through your own mind ).

   When was the last time you ate, let's say, shrimp and worried about
eating the genitals?  Or, do you think the MacDonald's removes the genitals
before making their chicken patty?
