From Wiki

 

Why do they call it sweetbreads?
It is thought by historians that they are called â€œsweet” because they taste richer and sweeter compared to typical meat, and they are “bread” because the old English word for flesh is “brÃĶd”. Sweetbreads are the thymus and pancreas glands of animals.
