Personal Notes:
Chitterlings are eaten most frequently in the Deep South of the United States, and are usually part of a larger meal that includes collard greens, fried chicken, and other traditional Southern foods. Also, chitterlings are used for sausage casings.
Even more than with most elements of soul food, "chitlins" are associated predominantly with African Americans, but are also enjoyed by many Southern whites as well.
Other cultures have fried intestine recipes, for example as part of the Latin American (and especially Argentinian) mixed grill dish parillada, where they are known as chinchulines and may be of lamb.
Filipino cuisine features a recipe of fried pork intestines called "silit".
