    My friend lived in China for 7 years and said the same thing. It’s the equivalent to chicken wings there.

    It’s weird how strong some people’s resistance to eating new foods is.

    My white partner is pretty open to eating most foods but she doesn’t like chicken feet. It’s one of those foods that Western people can struggle with. It’s not just the visual element but some people I know don’t like things like tripe or tendon. It’s the texture as well.

    British food is really…homogenous.

    But yeah, well cooked and seasoned chicken feet is great.

      Lol my wife still won’t eat tripe, even in meatballs, 20 years later. Her country was poor and she has this thing against eating tripe because it “makes you sick.”

      Oh well more for me I guess.
