These are important meat science terms for animal by-products and offals:

  • Bung (1-e): Rectum — the terminal part of the large intestine, used as sausage casing.
  • Pluck (2-d): Lungs + Trachea + Heart — thoracic visceral organs removed as one unit during slaughter.
  • Weasand (3-c): Oesophagus (food pipe) — used as a sausage casing.
  • Skirt (4-b): Diaphragm — the muscular sheet separating thoracic and abdominal cavities; used as meat.
  • Giblet (5-a): Gizzard + Liver + Heart — mainly refers to poultry visceral offals; commonly available in packaged poultry.
Memory Aid

Think: Bung = Bottom (Rectum), Pluck = Pluck from chest (Lungs/Heart), Weasand = food Weasels through (Oesophagus), Skirt = around the waist (Diaphragm), Giblet = G for Gizzard.

Why Other Options Are Wrong
  • Option B: Bung placed at Giblet position (Gizzard/Liver/Heart) — wrong; Bung is Rectum.
  • Option C: Weasand and Skirt are swapped.
  • Option D: Bung and Pluck are swapped.
