Do your chickens have "paws"?

[gritsar]

When we in the meat dept. at the grocery store the other day when I noticed a package of chicken feet labeled as "chicken PAWS". I try to avoid looking at those packages, but I was looking for a few good-sized packages of wings and well, there they were. (I'm silly, I know

)
I can't believe they labeled em paws. Sounds like somebody is a little too far removed from the farm.
DH says they probably labeled em like that because paws sounds better than feet. I say you can look at the package and clealy see that they are FEET.

I guess they were referring to the pad on the bottom of the feet as a "paw"?!?!? Not sure but thats a new one on me

Here they just call them "chicken feet"

Well I also noticed that they do label cow tongue as what it is, cow tongue. *EEK!* Memories of childhood and having to eat tongue once a week cuz it was cheap and my parents had alot of kids to feed.

Seen one of those yesterday in the meat section and they also had the heart right below the tongue. I almost asked the meat manager (a friend of mine) if he was planning on putting the cow back in order in the meat section

you know tongue, heart, liver, etc.

Like a big meat puzzle

How do I say this in a nice way? I think it has to do with the demograhics of the town.

Oh goodness gracious, what an awful memory. You just had to bring it up. To this day I feel like gagging when I remember that weekly dinner.
