The only thing that makes me not trust ordering again is that you're supposed to pay one peso per package of 3.0 to 3.4, and only one weighed 3.00 and the other 2.00... that's the only thing that makes me not trust ordering again

Well packed.. excited to make Lingua barbecue from this..

This pack contains three large pork tongues. I sliced each one from tip to base with a knife and stewed it in a pressure cooker. It's softer than the sliced beef tongue sold by Weee. It doesn't require much preparation, just washing it and trimming off the fat. You could also grill it and eat it. It's a generous 2.5 pounds. The tongues are frozen in bulk in one bag.

The reviews are good, I hope I won't be disappointed
weee.12601406
Great, the pork tongue is cleaned, very fresh, just cook and eat, no need to do anything, I am very satisfied
minhtrixuanhue
I made braised pig tongue, which was cooked longer than the ones sold outside so it is softer. The elderly at home can finally eat the braised pig tongue they have been craving for.

Nice and fresh

It was delicious, but I probably couldn't eat too much of it because it was too oily. I couldn't finish it in one meal, haha.

Should I have beef tongue bowl?

It arrived yesterday and I took it out of the bag today, but it's yellow and I'm hesitant to eat it. I'll read other people's reviews and then decide whether to eat it or not, but even though it's not vacuum packed, it looks new...

It's really weird; it turns yellow after cooking.
