I do ,dad called them" kernels glands"..why I don't know..but he would eat the brains too..mom would fry the heads last..dad would take the back of his spoon and crack the skull then scoop the brain out...My rule is "if it thought with it" or "talked with it" "dont eat it"...liver go's in the gut bucket too...
