Mary Roach Quote
For Arctic nomads, eating organs has, historically, been a matter of survival. Even in summer, vegetation is sparse. Little beyond moss and lichen grows abundantly on the tundra. Organs are so vitamin-rich, and edible plants so scarce, that the former are classified, for purposes of Arctic health education, both as meat and as fruits and vegetables. One serving from the Fruits and Vegetables Group in Nirlungayuk’s materials is 1/2 cup berries or greens, or 60 to 90 grams of organ meats.
