There is not much meat to eat aside from the skin, what did you eat?

Do you mind sharing how much of the head you actually ate and how exactly how you ate it? Where the eyes and beak still in tack? I could not tell from the picture.

When I buy a stewing hen from a local farmer, it comes with the feet and head, but there doesn’t seem like there is much to eat. Although I tried today.

All great points. But it really does beg the question regarding organ meat. I can’t think of any mythological creature that likes to eat kidneys or intestines, yet we get pretty disgusted when organs are offered. When I was in China, I sat down to eat some hot pot and one of the meats chosen was sheep kidney. It sounded nasty (especially considering the kidney’s function in the body) but when I tried it, it wasn’t so bad. The Chinese people I was with told me it be beneficial to my sexual parts, but really they said that about almost every food I had never seen before. Still, you’re not gonna find too many places around here with offerings like that…

I was recently thinking about the general aversion to eating animal brains and animal blood. It’s really not all that much weirder than eating animal flesh. But then I realized that it is weird because zombies eat brains and vampires drink blood, so why would we want to be like zombies or vampires?!?! Forget it! I love garlic far too much!
