Heart and tongue are more muscle flavored than organ flavored, so they might be a nice stepping stone. I don't eat a lot of starchy veggies either, usually only after intense workouts. I "earn my carbs". Jay...mmmm. A couple times I took a lb of liver, a lb of ground beef, onions, garlic and kale, and sauteed it all up with some wheat-free tamari and curry powder. Good eats there! Scott, My source is Tropical Traditions. It's actually <a href="http://www.tropicaltraditions.com/coconut_cream_concentrate.htm" rel="nofollow">coconut cream concentrate</a>, but it's so good I can eat it straight. It's solid at room temp, so you have to drop it into a pan of hot water to get it to loosen up. It's basically the cream part of the coconut milk. I assume you could make it yourself if you desired to. One day I may attempt that. I am planning to get some coconuts soon to try making coconut kefir, so maybe I'll figure out how to make cream.

Is it like whipped cream at room temp or what? Can a person make it themselves? What is your source? Thanks for the great information. How is coconut cream different from coconut milk in a can?

I'm going to get some liver or other organ meat to try. I refused to try it as a kid. Then again my diet now completely shocks and beats my parents by a long shot. Just really never thought about trying organ meat until you keep bringing it up. I need to think up uses for coconut oil. The sweet potato sounds interesting. I don't really eat that much starchy veggies though. I've used it for various dishes and my fiancee complains about me ruining what would be a good dish. Next time I order grass fed beef.
