How much tripe, and how to serve it
Last updated
These posts cover the kitchen side of tripe. The label gives about 119.4 kcal per ounce, so the pieces are dense for their size and the math is easier with a scale. Read how to weigh freeze-dried tripe for a daily share, then the calorie post for figures per ounce and per bag. Others cover breaking pieces into bits, preparing it straight from the bag and crumbling it over a meal as a topper. If your dog found the bag before you did, there is a page for that too, and it starts with calling your vet.
