Sweetmeats = candy usually `crystallized' fruit. Sweetbreads = pancreas and thymus, after preliminary boiling, can be prepared in many ways with many sauces. One of the best is Madeira. Best eaten with crisp bacon and toast. Food for the Gods, usually available only at the best restaurants. (The pancreas and thymus were generally given away at the butcher shop in Depression days. Now they bring a high price.) Had a great meal of them at Antoine's in New Orleans and another time in dining room of the Algonquin Hotel in Manhattan.
