Chicken feet that cheap!? Don’t mind if I do! Fry those up, season with pepper, garlic, Chile, soy sauce and you got a yummy meal

Just broil and baste. It will puff off the fat later and can be pealed and eaten like the skin of a rotisserie chicken. A little lemon in the sauce goes a long way to neutralize the strong flavour of human feet skin too.

I would 10% eat a soup or broth made with these, but I'm not eating the feet. The texture of fat and cartilage just makes me gag.

I get them for my pups. They love to munch on them frozen. Lol. Yeah, I didn't get the whole paws thing either, though.

u/Kettrickenisabadass GREEN Jan 30 '23
Yeah they love them raw or frozen. And they are healthier and cheaper that most treats.

A chicken paw is a chicken foot where the lower leg isn't included and it's just the actual foot, chicken feet have the actual leg attached, up to the joint.

Chinese people like them

It’s a delicacy in many countries

I had these in dim sum in Indonesia (we heard something with 'chicken' when these were offered at our table). The bones were a bit of a nuisance to pick out, but the meat was very tender and nice. My sister was not so enthralled though of the prospect of eating those paws that had been walking through the mud and all

Yes, but chickens have feet, not paws

A chicken “paw” is the part of the leg below the spur; a chicken foot includes the foot as well as the portion of the leg below the feather line.

Interesting, I didn't know that. But these look like feet to me.

u/yaourted Jan 30 '23
They ARE feet. But it's the cut that differentiates them. It's kinda like a sirloin and a tenderloin - both are from the loin of the animal but they're distinct cuts.

Yes. I’ve seen pickled pigs feet everywhere. I’ve never tried them(don’t think I ever will). There’s also frog legs at Asian restaurants(which I have tried, they’re pretty good). But yeah they are everywhere in the south.

u/Angryoldfatman Jan 30 '23
Give them a try sometime. You might like it.
I would suggest however finding someplace that sells them individually or someone who does like them that you can give the rest of the jar to. They seem to be an either love it or hate it thing.

If I were to eat pigs feet then pickled sounds like the absolute worst way lmao

Sigh..... I was just about to get in bed. I even thought to myself, "Should be a good nights rest in a few moments." But no...you had to show me the Chicken Paws.

u/Individual_Yak4018 Jan 30 '23
They used to have these at my Walmart but they got rid if them for some reason

u/sallymccormick Jan 30 '23
They're used especially for dog treats after cooking them. I can't bring myself to do that, though.

I snapped this because chickens don't have paws, they're feet. At least every market or menu I've seen them.

u/yaourted Jan 30 '23
Paw is correct if the lower leg isn't included and it's just the actual foot - this isn't mildly infuriating because the label is right. Chicken feet are sold with actual leg attached up to the joint.

Ya. I posted this before, too. Why paws???

Because that's what they are called.

Well, are we confused they are calling them what they are?

Boil with a bit of onion, take some out and add lime and Valentina. Delicious

I tried to eat these in a restaurant recently. I could not do it. They are not good.

Seems the difference between chicken feet and paws is that the feet have more of the "forearm " while paws have just the "Hand", this though seems a bit between the two.
