Tuyo! My wife loves these. She'll make a big plate of them, then tear them apart with her bare hands, dipping them chunk by chunk into a small bowl of pickle brine. When she's done there's nothing left but a pile of eyeballs and lips on the plate.
Sounds horrifying.
So good with rice and a chutney of diced tomatoes, vinegar, fish sauce, and salted duck egg. I grew up in the Philippines but have lived in the US for more than half my life, so I can understand how it can be perceived as weird and even gross, but as a kid I was so used to seeing it on a plate that to my brain it registers as totally normal.
