I guess I'm a wimp, but I can't deal with tripe! (That's OK, lots of people can't deal with the idea of corn meal mush with sour cream ... .) I was once ordering a seafood soup at a very new Korean restaurant in Fall Church (a long time ago - if it's still there, it's now a well-established Korean restaurant), and they kept trying to talk me out of it. It was seafood and vermicelli. It turns out that some fool had told them that "vermicelli" was what you called tripe in English.
(The Mr. ate it. He also eats chicken hearts. The waiters at the churrascaria in Rockville are always very impressed.)
