This is a link post An article about forgotten foods.
Quite a phew "BLEURRRGH" entries (I'm not squeamish btw, although I've been veggie for 23+ years I still have fond memories of Liver & Bacon, Kidneys &c.)
I picked & bletted medlars....curious.

This is a normal post Some of it sounds lovely tho
I'm very tempted to try potted rabbit and damson cheese.

Pig's trotters make a casserole super lovely, especially in something like curry goat. They don't have the nail on y'know.

This is a normal post I had a pigs trotter in France
when I was about 12 (circa 1976) and it was fucking disgusting.

My wife makes Damson Jam but most of the Damsons go into Damson Gin.

This is a normal post Well that's rude, giving away my present
Although, I s'pose it was more of a payment considering I 'forgot' to give her the cash.

This is a normal post I also make damson jam :)
Damson vodka is also bloody marvellous if you fancy a change to the traditional gin.

This is a normal post Bring back dripper cakes!
Never seen them outside of Gloucestershire, and not many places sell them there anymore.

It's a shame you don't see more traditional fruit and veg about. Lots of English varieties that you never see in shops are fantastic. My folks have a Lord Lamborn apple tree, tastes amazingly crisp straight from the fridge.

Many a night I lament the abscence of Lord Lamborn's flavour in my mouth or dripping on my lips.

This is a normal post if you're looking for a nont popular meat to eat
try liver. Quite cheap as it;s in low demand, cooked right and it's amazing.

But clearly doesn't have that effect on some. So have at it.
