     A case report from Ernest Neve, senior surgeon at the Kashmir Mission Hospital, provided the final item of support for raw gland therapy. […] Cunningham Affleck, an Edinburgh physician, shared Neve's frustration with the idiosyncrasies of butchers and slaughterhouse workers. He discovered that they generally supplied thymus or thyroid glands in place of pancreas when asked for ‘sweetbreads’. It was necessary, he cautioned, to specify ‘long bread’ or ‘gut bread’ in order to receive pancreas. Those who had found pancreas unpleasant had probably been supplied with the wrong organ, for true pancreas was ‘quite pleasant and palatable’.
