People should be grossed out by chicken nuggets, and any other kind of "mechanically separated" meat or protein, like surimi... but just add a bit of flavoring, or a crispy coating, and they crave them.
Whether it's tendons, eyes, gills or antennae, just turn them into a non-descript paste with funny shapes, and people will eat it.
