Liver and onions I will miss you

As I study the cardiovascular system and organs I have learned things about the liver organ. The liver is basically a giant filter. I did already know this but seeing the actual photos and movies has made it so much more vivid.


I love Pate, Liver and Onions and Foie Gras, but I may have to bid them adieu. I am not sure I can enjoy it the same way without feeling like I am eating the equivalent of the filter in my aquarium.


The same goes for high fat food, there is nothing like actually seeing a doctor pull a giant rope of fat out of a clogged artery to make you reconsider your double cheeseburger.
