I guess, while for most people this would seem disgusting; you have to respect cultures that make a point of using the entire animal. I suspect, though, that you would find such parts in the makeup of hot dogs and similar products.

The repressed US culture is probably not open to munching down on animal genitalia. But when you get down to it, it's really no different than eating any other part of the animal. It's all flesh, fat and muscle.

Actually, no fat or muscle. It's a spongy vascular tissue. Some other gems from Wikipedia...

smallest vertebrate penis belongs to the common shrew (5 mm or 0.2 inches)

largest penis belongs to the blue whale estimated at over 2 m (more than 6½ feet)

Gorillas have relatively small penises, so it is an often used subtle insult in some countries to insinuate or directly state that one is 'hung like a gorilla'

Why do I have such an urge to make a childish joke about German Porn stars?

Could not be any worse that what those guys eat on those survival shows. But, I will pass.
Makes you want to be a veggietarian.
