Jenn and Clara explore the world of offal through the lens of Indiana Jones & The Temple of Doom. While the courses at the royal banquet were meant to shock and awe, we break down the delicious ways you can enjoy nutrient powerhouses: blood, bones, and offal (organ meats). Make sure to take your time and let your offbeat proteins get a good soak.
