Default Ventricles safe to feed?

Not sure if thats what they are but they are thick cartlidge like tube running through the lungs of the beef. I assume these are okay to feed? Ive never fed beef lung before and he turned his nose to it when I offered him some to try..tough love I guess will play in here.

In this picture you can kinda see the ventricles in the top left part of the lung

lung has very little nutrition and some dogs don't like the texture which is inflated, sort of fluffy marshallowy. Press down on it and you can hear the air comes whisshing out still.

Are those turkey necks?
If you are thinking esophogus , windpipe , yes -- great source of condroitin. My dogs get windpipe occassionally and we dehydrate it for something to take to market.
