Camelids (camels, llamas, alpacas, et al) are not ruminants. Their stomachs have 3 chambers, not 4 as ruminants do, with no division between omasum and abomasum. They are correctly classed as fore-gut fermenters but not ruminants despite having a rumen. Weirdly ruminants are bovids (not bovines)

Ruminants (yaks, goats, giraffes, camels) have a giant fermentation vat at the start of their digestive system.
It’s great at working *with* gravity but super terrible at keeping things down when gravity is not in their favor.
For this reason, I do not recommend taking yaks to space.

The four compartments of a cow’s stomach are called the rumen, the reticulum, the omasum, and the abomasum. Reticulum is thought to be the origin of the word reticule, a small, sometimes netted, drawstring bag carried by women in the early 19th c #dresshistory

It's so much easier just to remember the four stomachs of a cow:
rumeN = oNtario
Reticulum = eRie
oMasum = Michigan
AbomaSum = Superior
and hUron is de udder.

A dim sum spread is incomplete without chicken feet for me. Even when the people I dine with won't eat it, I'll order it -- and then eat it all myself!

3) they are not Just Meat and do require a little more knowledge on how to cook. Kidneys and heart in particular and I have not even approached tripe/omasum yet
Like cheap cuts are delicious if you know how to fix them but two things:
1) they stop being cheap when everyone buys them, and
2) This motherfucker gave himself a brain worm I’m not listening to him about my food on principle.

![The abomasum, also known as the maw,[1] rennet-bag,[1] or reed tripe,[1] is the fourth and final stomach compartment in ruminants. It secretes rennet, which is used in cheese creation.
The ruminant digestive system
The word abomasum (ab- "away from" + omasum "intestine of an ox") is from Neo-Latin and it was first used in English in 1706. It is possibly from the Gaulish language.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rbsmeje3gvbqtfswafpfuqiz/bafkreicl3j2fycdk4sqdrsn7bhvzo5cuguectw22spn24c4bcxe65p4ybi)

Their names (left to right) are probably ‘Rumen’, ‘Reticulum’, ‘Omasum’ and ‘Abomasum’.
Named after the 4 compartments of the Bovine digestive system which metabolise the shit out of Bovaer (minus the methane).

Fake news...That's just a rumen! That abomasum of a President is too offal for that. As for the minerals, he's going to reticul 'um and it's all going to be absolutely omasum! Bigly.

These started out as some Gota doodles for #VoreDay, but it started turning into a general spread canvas.
It’s always fun playing with that dynamic of Gota flexing his goat power and constantly trying to defeat and replace Kota as my dominant fursona

My personal ranking of ruminant stomach chambers based on how interesting I think they are:
#1- Rumen (of course)
#2- abomasum
#3- reticulum
#4-
#5-
#6-
#7- omasum (so boring that i don't even want to group it with the others)

The omasum is completely redundant. Oh you can absorb water? The colon does it better. You can filter particles by size? The reticulum does it better.
The reticulum is also boring tbh but at least it can get hardware disease! The omasum doesn't even get any fun diseases

My entire academic theory is evolution is not even remotely possible because how can it be when nothing on the entire planet is gut friendly for most people? Both the planet and our bodies are trying to kill us right from our RUMEN, OMASUM, RETICULUM, AND ABOMASUM!

Here’s why omasum is such a pain;
* like most organ meats there’s prep, in this case boiling
* ideally you want to marinate it for 24 hours
* you want to steam it for 6 minutes. Less and it’s not cooked, more and it’s a tire
OK if you’re a restaurant cooking lots of tripe, but doesn’t scale down.
