Definitely not! I only know one Hungarian and, while he is a very smart man (heart surgeon), I certainly don't want pancakes made with his brains!

Simmer together in a pot for 1 hour - 2 c. blueberries, fresh or frozen; 1 c. strawberries or raspberries; 1 c. any leftover fruit, canned, fresh or frozen, 1/2 c. water; 1/4 c. lemon juice, 1 c. broccoli, chopped. Remove from heat and cool. Puree in food processor, Return to pt and add 1 6-oz package Jello, any flavor. Heat for 15 minutes. Cool and refrigerate.

Did you try it?
Serve daily over biscuits, cake, ice cream, doughnuts or yogurt.

Pork brains with scrambled eggs is a normal meal for a lot of Southerners. My grandfather ate this for breakfast almost every morning. I never ever tasted it.

I bet you would not even notice the broccoli, and no, I did not try it. Nor the brain pancakes, which, I just checked, are Czechoslovakian brain pancakes (makes all the difference). Actually in The Natural Foods Cookbook by Beatrice Trum Hunter. Back in the days when "natural food" was all kind of yucky.
They have a large section for what was called "offal". Even have a subsection for leftover sweetbreads. Yeah, I bet a LOT of them were leftover...
