I used to believe that tripe was a kind of fish. Growing up in New England my mother prepared pickled tripe regularly. One day in a restaurant with my parents and a young friend I ordered pickled tripe. My buddy asked what it was and I explained that it was like a trout and that the swam upstream to spawn.
