The Front Porch Swing

Anyone else steal the oysters off the back of a roasted bird before anyone sees? You flip the bird back over and nobody knows ...

If you buy the fully roasted bird at Costco, you can perform this operation in the parking lot on the way to your car.

Bahahahahaha Love it. By the way, found you inputs on the Lt Sussex thread. How are they doing?

I just love you, you know that???

Even though you almost made me cry down my leg there.....

And, yes, I steal the oysters because no one else seems to know of their hidden and oft overlooked goodness! Probably because they are supposed to provide cushion and safety for the kidneys....another oft overlooked and hidden delicacy. See the not so subtle advocacy for the minority organ group? It's gonna keep happenin', folks. As I live and breath, kidneys are gonna have their day in the sunshine of acceptance!

ROFLMAO

Oh Gawd Now I want to go to Costco..... I can see it now a rash of bird flpping parkinglot Oyseter munchers.... While I am at it I would be going for that Parsons nose too. I can see it now the cop knocking on the window just as I begin my ""operaton""... Juice running down my chin... Busted.

Costco for the un initiated has the best roasted chickens outside of doing them at home with your own home grown birds.

I've never been able to get around cooking animal heads due to the snot passages and gelatinous eyeball goo therein...I have an issue with textures and snot. Snot and lung butter has always been my special nemesis in my nursing career. I can clean it, suck it up with cannulas, even empty great buckets of it in the toilet(if I hold my breath and don't look at it) and all that jazz but my insides are hurling all the while...you know how hard it is to gag and heave without showing it and putting a gentle smile on one's face? Have done that for years when I really wanted to do the "OH MY ICK, I'M GONNA BE SICK" dance all over the room.

Chicken snot? Not happenin'.


I won't if you surrender all your orphan chicken kidneys to loving parents like myself so they can be properly cooked...uh....ahem... I mean...cared for in a loving home. I can see they get the proper love and attention they so rightly deserve. <sniff!> (that was a self-righteous sniff, BTW, indicating that I just have WAY more compassion than you do because I 'rescue' kidneys and take them into my home)

hahahahaha! We have some of the same wiring because I have the same reaction to mucus. They say "grinning" actually stifles the gag reflex, so it's great they train nurses to grin.

How could you have kids? "Snot nosed kids" is a stereotype for a reason. And they always eat off your plate.

It's bad enough having Gust drool everywhere when we're eating. Sometimes I can't tell Gust Drool from Egg White.

And the Costco birds only cost $4.99 ... they are HUGE, hot, and ready to eat. Oh. My. Yum!

Never allowed them to have snot!

My kids were kept very healthy, so not much snot nosin' going on....

Speaking of custard. I think this is a little weird, but my brain made the connection between chickens and all birds, not me. My husband has a sun conure and it's been laying eggs. Are they edible?

Ohhhhh my gosh... you just kicked up the Ick Factor" in my throat!!! I have that same reaction to textures and snot, puss, mucus - ALL THAT NASTY STUFF! hahahaha A little Vick's salve in or around the nose will take care of the smells but the rest, like you said, hard not to react. God bless all you nurses and doctors!!! I won't if you surrender all your orphan chicken kidneys to loving parents like myself so they can be properly cooked...uh....ahem...

Oh lawd, now "rescue kidneys"! LOL I hate to possible ruin it for you but have you ever seen those kidneys when something went wrong and they are swollen up out of that rib cavity three or four times their original size? I just can't seem to get past that. LOL

Really???? I don't remember posting there.

Someone also once accused me of owning peacocks based on my supposed posts in a thread about them!

I have some Speckled Sussex I got from a hatchery. They are SO CUTE ... friendly, pretty, good sized birds (for hatchery birds). Dad had one he was favoring because she was acting all pathetic and wouldn't come down from the roost at treat time, and he hand fed her until she perked up ... late molt. We kept the rooster because this breed is so nice and round for hatchery birds, so we figured any cockerels would be worth eating compared to the other options, but he is not assertive. He now appears to be Wing Man for Shade, the big Black Austrolorp who I believe is now Top Cock. I'm not sure Pecker, as the SS roo is called, is getting lucky at all. If you pick him up, he cuddles and coos.
