well, what's a "calf fry"?

In March of 1992 Kris and Patti Holman asked their little cowboy how he wanted to celebrate his 8th birthday. K.C., not surprisingly, responded, “I want to have a Calf Fry!”….And the rest is history

Rocky Mountain oysters are bull calf testicles used for human consumption. Sometimes pig or sheep testicles are used. They are often deep-fried after being peeled, coated in flour, pepper and salt, and sometimes pounded flat. This delicacy is most often served as an appetizer[1] with a cocktail sauce dip.

oh.

The primary goal of testicle removal is not necessarily culinary. Castration in veterinary practice and animal husbandry is common and serves a variety of purposes, including the control of breeding, the growth of skeletal muscle suitable for beef, and temperament alteration.[8]

I am verily confused by the conflation of jesus bothering and ... testicle eating.

Friend Kaleb shared it out on Twitter and I was duly amazed.
