Yes that is why we have CHICKEN DOGS.

Visualization and texture are the 2 major reasons why people dislike a certain kind of food. I started eating chicken feet before I even knew what it was when I was kid. It's smooth sailing aftewards.

There isn't much that I don't eat due to my imagination/visualization. But texture and smells sometimes get me

You obviously havn't been to a Chinese restauarnt... instestine from pigs, cows, chicken, rats....



Just kidding about the rats.

Question for the feet eaters, have you ever been in a chicken coop?


edit: my reason for not eating it is because it's effin disgusting.

do u eat pork? have u seen a pig pen or whatever its called? its pretty gross..

i pretty much made this thread because i had just finished reading an article where someone was putting down chinese people because they eat chicken feet.. and they hadnt even tried it before...

Aaaaawww (holding stomach) I feel like barfing.

Now pigs that's a different story.

It's more for the sauce, not the meat. It used to be fun playing with the tendons too when I was a kid.

Which article is this?

I'm Asian and I don't like eating chicken feet because I'm not a big fan of skin. But I know loads of Asian and non-Asian people who love it. It's an acquired taste.

eat eggs much? those come out of a chicken's ass... they r also a baby chicken.

Some folks just have trouble eating something so readily identifiable.

Meatloaf, steaks and burgers don't really look like a cow and a pork chop or bacon doesn't look like a pig. Chicken feet look like .. well, they look like chicken feet.

The mental disconnect some people need to be meat eaters just ain't there. Too much "Ew factor".

Ill eat any part of an animal as long as it is edible and cooked adn is delicious..



who cares if it looks nasty?

I used to eat it when I was younger, but stopped since. Mainly because I'm lazy and hate eating things with so many bones in them, but also because you're pretty much just eating skin. Not much stuff on there. But, the sauce does taste good.

its sooo gross, my coworker brought a box and was sharing it wid all the other co-workers. When i was offered some I said No, but I was thinking You disgusting ***** (i forgot how many characters in the word chinook) , unfortunately I;m on an island (Taiwan) rite now where ppl eat it, its like french fries in Canada, i try to avoid looking at it wid my eyes but tough sometimes.

Can't ppl respect animalz, bad enough u ate it, now u gotta eat his feet too, so maybe he hopping on stumps in heaven
