All of my caucasian friends never eat animal organs, they think those are disgusting e.g. stomach, intestine, liver, testis, etc. in which some of them is quite popular in asian culture or when you go to yum cha. They even think that eating chicken feet is terrible too.
What do you think?

No. In fact, eating animal organs is not exclusive to Asian cultures.
If you ever encounter any ethnocentric dope who says eating organs is barbaric, you can kindly inform them that many European cultures have similar customs. Many types of sausages are made of animal intestines and blood, for example.

eating animal organs is hardly disgusting compared to what people actually eat for food.

I'm more afraid to eat at McDonald's than swallowing animal organs

no its not disgusting. As a matter of fact, organs are usually considered delicacies in most countries. They are often the most expensive on the menu.

I think the main reason people don't like those kind of food is not the taste, but the texture. For example, most people don't like sushi because it has a weird texture, not because it taste bad.

Actually I rarely eat some organs especially intestine. There was a time I have dinner with friends and ordered a dish with goose intestine. However I noticed that it may not be cleaned thoroughly because I really smelled and tasted some shit there. :( After that I refuse to try any intestine... :S
