From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I THOUGHT TRIPE WAS COW VAGINA.

Removed reference to Haggis - haggis is heart/lung/liver/oatmeal cooked in a cleaned sheeps stomach, but the stomach part (the tripe) is not eaten.
[edit] dialectical use
i'm certain this isn't a Yorkshire-ism in any way but a slightly outmoded usage in standard English. i haven't got instances on hand but i will find them W guice 16:32, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Agreed -- I am from New York and I have heard (and used) this word as a synonym for ‘crap’ enough times to be sure it isn’t limited to a region of the UK. It’s not a common word in my experience but I think most people at least know what it means here. 209.6.18.196 00:00, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] nutritional info
The information on tripe is missing the nutritional benefits for people and pets. Please provide them. I see tripe added to high end dog food, but would like to know why. - Laurabutler23 12:56, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
