I....have some experience eating blood-related foods (and I just found out there's a "medical food" from Russia that's a blood -chocolate- bar, of all things!) and can give several tips about blood-related cuisine XD
(There's a Filipino joint down the hill from me that's really very authentic; we visited the first time and I ordered 'Chocolate Meat'.
The lady looked at me a bit funny, making sure I knew this was not, like, pork chops, but I'm very far from squeamish.
It was -delicious- and it was terribly funny when she came out while we were eating and saw me chowing down on it XD)
