[the_old_crowd] Re: Chicken Feet (was Holiday Greetings! (Getting More OT All the Time)

[Kat Macfarlane]

I don't eat chicken wings (or necks) much, not because I think they're 
gross but because they're hardly worth the trouble. You just gnaw and 
gnaw and gnaw, and all you end up with is a little skin and some odd 
assorted bones, and hardly enough meat to bother with. I'm sure chicken 
feet would come under the same heading. If they're in a really divine 
sauce, I suppose they would be worth sucking on, though that sounds like 
a rather deranged sort of pacifier.

Slightly puckered purrs,
