It's official - pathologists love food. I mean why else would you call dead/dying tissue cheesy, or the characteristic staining of something apple green?

When I saw this slide in Pathology Lab, the only thing I could think of was a nice prime rib steak:

So you can see I am in great need of a nice steak :-) Pop quiz: So what organ do you all think it actually is?

Actually, second thought, it looks like a too fatty prime rib. Now I know why I have sworn off them.
