Quenstion 91. A word that means a type of food prepared from certain parts of an animal, especially the pig, is also an old-fashioned tailoring term meaning the large lacy frills on a man's dress shirt or coat. What word is this ?

This was posted yesterday and the answer was given as chitterlings I believe....

Thanks, that is the word I have got, but I cannot find the dress shirt front that is called that. All the common dictionary, apart evidently that of Chambers, do not have the word for it.
