No joke, you get chicken feet at dim sum places and I wonder how much you actually eat - I thought maybe the bones might be softer in the feet and maybe you can eat them
Answers:
Chicken feet are a part of chicken that is eaten in Chinese and South African cuisine. The majority of the edible meat on the feet consist of skin and tendons, without much muscle. This gives the feet a distinct texture different from the rest of chicken's meat. There are many small bones which may make it difficult to eat for some, and are often picked out before service. Being mostly cartilage, chicken feet are also very gelatinous.
