Left kidneys and lungs in bird by accident - just made broth... Will I die if I eat it?

[SheppFamilyFlock]

Ok I'm being dramatic, I know I won't die.

My husband and I are new to chickens and when we processed one of our birds we seem to have left a few organs behind. I didn't notice until I was straining the bones out of the soup broth. I'm grossed out and afraid to try the soup now as I've read those particular organs can give the broth a bad taste. Is it going to be awful? Should I just toss it? Is there anything I can add to fix it? Lol help me, I'm being such a baby

Go ahead and taste it, that's the only way you can know.

Lungs and kidney won't stain a meal. But the bile sack will, it's dark green next to the liver and kidneys.

Ok I didn't notice anything green. Would it stay green after being cooked?

When your gutting a chicken, you never want to puncture it, it also stinks really bad.

Cooked bile would turn the meal dark with an off taste to it. It's like cooking cecal poop in the meal.

My dad left a testicle behind in a bird we used for soup. There was nothing funky about it.

I actually want to try the rooster testicles. Heard they're great.

Store birds usually have kidneys left in. I have seen lungs left in too.
It will be fine

Update: I ate the soup, it had a slight metallic taste which was probably just in my head. The broth was darker than normal which was what was putting me off so much I think. I added some cayenne and ate it up thanks for all your reassurance!

I'm glad it turned out well!
