Cher chose to eat a cow tongue on TV rather than compliment Donald Trump



Despite saying that she wouldn't even consider taking a bite out of a cow's tongue before being prompted with a question she soon changed her mind when she heard what it was.

The question, or should we say challenge, from Corden was:

You have, rightfully so, been incredibly outspoken of your disapproval of President Donald Trump.

Say one nice thing about him.

After a brief pause and moments thought she eventually replied.

There is nothing nice about him. I can't say one nice thing about him.

Credit to her she stuck to her guns and did then take a bite out of the piece of meat which looked like the most unedifying thing imaginable.

I think of delis as having cow tongue. Mostly Jewish delis.

My local supermarkets also sell cow tongue, but we don't have a large Jewish population, so some other groups (perhaps parts of my own) must eat it.

I find it equivalent to daring Cher to eat chitlins on national tv and describing them as "the most unedifying thing imaginable". I suspect some people may find that a bit, um, unacceptable.

My grandmother and mother moth made it, and we loved it! Haven't had it in several years (except in lengua tacos), but I used to love a good tongue sandwich on rye with spicy deli mustard.

compliment our great, stable(fed) genius. You sir, are incredibly, unapologetically the most extraordinary buffoon to ever squat in our house.

Give yourself a pat on your ass or wherever you can reach with those minuscule digits of yours.

Someday he will provide compost to improve the natural world, I think. However, I won't plant any of my plants in it. Don't trust it to be conducive to health growth.

It melts in your mouth. My mother would prepare it in a Madeira sauce with mushrooms. It's a delight. However it looks like this one is raw.

Boiling it is simplest.

Looks like that tongue still has the skin on it, which is for visual effect. The skin peels off so easily.

They serve it cold, sliced, and salted (it's cooked) as a side dish in Taiwan. I used to gobble it up anywhere that had it when I lived in Taipei.

"I'd rather suck cold shit out of a dead bear."

I don't think I'd go that far to avoid finding SOMETHING complimentary, though.
