I reinserted the comment about tendon as food and added where it is eaten and a link to a recipe (if anyone is game to try it). I find the texture too much like glue myself.....Lystrablue 03:16, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I also read that in Chinese medicine, they used deer "sinew" as a form of traditional medicine--Scott (scworden1976@yahoo.com).

i hate tendons

Are tendons tougher than ligaments?

RE: The trivia notation: RE the "Other information" section which I found very informative: perhaps it could be partially renamed "Uses made of Tendons" or something similar in meaning. I think a certain amount of this excellent quality of "trivia" will make wikipedia a better quality resource and a better experience for most users. Rather than having "trivia discouraged", perhaps the warning should state that "Further classification of trivia sections is encouraged." or something more positive. One reason for rephrasing these warnings in a more positive way is to encourage more participation even by novices. 74.215.29.115 (talk) 11:36, 3 January 2008 (UTC)Glenn
