Also in Saudi, after slaughtering a lamb, all the unusual pieces are put into a pot and cooked together as a soup and for hours. The head (remember to remove the nose worm that's there), entrails, my sister-in-law uses her fingers to crochet the intestins into a rope, feet and anything no one wants to eat in normal cooking. I've watched this but have only learned to cook the feet, get between the hoves and dig out the hair ball from there. Someones waste is anothers delicasy!!
Did you not know that in China, NOTHING is wasted?
If it moves, they eat it, every single part of it.
Just watch the food travel shows on cable tv and you will be shocked at some of the things they eat, it turns my stomach.
I must admit though, that I have eaten frogs legs (very yummy); and chocolate coated ants (very sweet) but I could not, for the life of me, eat escargot (snails).
And I would have to be really starving before I could eat widgedy grubs like the Aboriginals here in Australia do.
Bon appetit!

If you are going to kill an animal for food then you should eat all of it!
My DH told me that the USA exports a lot of our chicken feet to China, where they are eaten as a delicacy.
Isn't it wounderful that God made so many people, who like so many different things?
Once, one of our exchange students from Spain, looked at us strangely, because we were picking up our French fries with our fingers. He lived here for a year, and by the end of the year he would only occasionally eat a French fry without his knife and fork.
so sorry girls....they are chicken feet....We have alot of the Asian cultures where I work, and you see alot of them in their plates.....I have to leave cause it is the most impossible thing to watch someone eat.....I had the misfortune to walk past someone eating out of a dish I thought said pork n beans...when I went back buy with my food, i read it clearer and it was pork brains...needles to say my food went in the garbage and i was very ill the rest of the day....We have to watch out when we have potlucks....there are alot of dishes that come with whole fish heads, duck beaks, eye balls and misc....OK.... ENOUGH...I AM STARTING TO GET QUEESY....SORRY....
People all over the world eat chicken feet, they look ugly, never ate one, but my grandfather used to love them.***
my daughter and 4yr old GD both eat chinese style chicken feet they love 'em. me no.
I have eaten chicken feet. My granny used to boil them in the soup. When they are skinned and cooked they are fine. If you eat gizzards,cows tongue or the stomach which is a Mexican staple called Tripe it is no different.Pickled pigs feet, pork rinds, all part of the animal and completely edible. Just sounds gross. Now if you offered me grasshoppers, deep fried spiders or boiled centipedes....no way.
In Central Texas, they are selling chicken feet along side the chicken breast in the fresh meat case at the local grocery store chain. I've never seen anyone pick them up and toss them in their cart, but somebody must be buying them. Of course they are also selling chicken hearts, too.
Eles são ricos em colágeno. Aqui, no Brasil, comer muito e é uma delícia!
Veja a foto da casa da galinha da minha fazenda.
Eu amo a imagem do galinheiro em sua fazenda! Isso me lembra aquela na fazenda da minha avó, mas era menos aberto e poderia ser fechado, em caso de uma raposa.
I love the picture of the chicken house on your farm! It reminds me of the one at my grandma's farm, but it was less open and could be closed up, in case of a fox.
EEWWWW !!!!! Not for me either - making me feel ill at the thought of it passing my lips LOL
When my daughter was in China she found a "chicken foot" at the bottom of her bowl of soup!
Oh my gosh! I actually got the dry heaves looking at this! People will eat just about anything I guess... no thanks.
Not for me...probably too many calories! When my daughter was small and a waitress asked her what she wanted to order in a chicken restaurant, she said... The feet and beaks!
Okay sounds like all are in favor of Chicken Feet !!! I'll pass too .... x0x0x0x
Yesssssssss I was right in one way as I mentioned the tinned chicken claws that my husband eventually ate. He said they were very cruchy
I did too, Kay. So I took a few step classes and they seem to have gone away! hahahaha
These are SPICY chicken feet with the nails included. I think I will just paint them red and put on display, but thanks for the vision in my head of people actually eating these.
Ugh - that is not appealing to me, but I know that they are eatern in other cultures - chicken feet!
I will agree with all the others! chicken feet fur sure! I have seen many, but do not try to eat them!!! LOL, Hugs, Judy

My DH said that the USA exports more chicken feet to China, than to the rest of the world. It is a well loved snack food there.
I have watched Chinese Tv where the contestants had to eat all sorts of strange things eg Deep fried spiders & long millipedes ewww defo not 4 me ;-)
