I would say that head cheese is most definitely not a sausage. It is a kind of terrine. - Burschik

Don't forget Headcheese in Pokey the Penguin comics!

Brawn as Head Cheese?

Is there are reason that Brawn (Transformers) is in the disambig header? The article for the Transformer makes no mention of Head Cheese, and its not a term I'm familiar with in association with Brawn. Pyrogen 01:19, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

• The article claims head cheese is called brawn in the UK, and brawn is a redirect to this article. JIP | Talk 06:58, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Correct. I'm English, and only know the expression "head cheese" from Americans. It's always "brawn" here. 86.132.142.77 04:43, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

there is no disambig header. where the is the link to the transfomer named Brawn...there should be a disamiguation page. i typed in Brawn for a search and it came right to the cheese? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.247.188.180 (talk) 2006-07-27 18:05:02

Sounds reasonable. I have added a {{redirect1}} hatnote which should also explain Pyrogen's puzzlement. Henning Makholm 09:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Useless Trivia

I removed this tidbit. I think it's beyond trivial.

• This dish may have been the inspiration for William Heath Robinson's macabre drawing Remarkable case of absence of mind in a Dutch restaurant (1912), in which a diner, distracted by his newspaper, mistakes his sleeping neighbour's bald head for an Edam cheese and cuts a slice from it.
• Perhaps intriguing but nevertheless non-material, I removed the paragraph claiming head cheese to be the favorite dish of Jeffrey Dahmer.

If someone can justify why it should be returned, please go ahead. Clerks 13:59, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

wwe

Gelatin

Gelatin is not made from bone marrow, but from connective tissue.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre

The history channel tells me that the working title of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was "Headcheese" Wowlookitsjoe (talk) 01:46, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Jews?

This article claims that this product is very popular with jews. I would imagine that it would be a non-pork form of the product that they would patronise... Further, is there a restriction on the consumption of gelatin in Kosher? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.63.75.210 (talk) 04:34, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Unencycopedic Content

The following paragraph (from the article) contains unencyclopedic content and should be delt with.

Head Cheese is also known as the semi-fluid semi-solid substance found particularly on males who are uncircumcised. The build up of the "head cheese" occurs beneath the foreskin. It is usually white in colour and may smell and taste like semen. It is likely seminal discharge trapped in the foreskin. Caused by frequent erections and the presence of "precum". If not cleaned off on a daily bases, it may lead to a fungal infection. Not to mention not being able to get laid.
