I used to work at a meat packing/processing plant.  We had products called
both souse and head cheese.  One looked slightly different than the other,
but both stunk horribly when being cooked.  I could always tell when they
were cooking those up.  I don't think I would have eaten them to begin with,
but they are the only two things we made for human consumption that I would
not ever consider eating after working there.
