I moved to the USA ten years ago and never could understand why anyone would eat a chicken's foot. Or a pig's foot for that matter.

Much of your consternation has to do with the fact that nearly all countries outside of the U.S. (even those that don't have any non-renewable energy sources that we are passionately willing to kill for) utilize the metric system.
Since time immemorial (and pre-dated Newsweek by at least a decade, and did so without their parents' consent, it should be noted) the culinary quandry (often mistakenly referred to as a "quid") has been the difficulty in converting centimeters, millimeters, etc., in to feet, be it those of a pig or a chicken. However, that problem is virtually non-existent when it comes to converting dinosaurs' feet in to litres. We took care of that one right away.

I would not eat them on a plane. I would not eat them in the rain!

I would not eat them in a truck. I would not eat them with a duck!


I would not eat them on a dish. I would not eat them with a fish!




I would not eat them with Lamont's Aunt Esther;
I would not eat them with a Moderator's signature :jester:

I would not eat them with my coffee cup in my right hand;
I would not eat them if I were one click away from being banned!
I would not even eat them if my mother's maiden name was "Hamham"!

I would not eat them with Hall of Famer Robin Yount;
I would not eat them to increase my post count.

I would not eat them if I was Walter Mitty;
I most certainly would not eat them with some fraud named DrMotorcity!

I believe you are mistaken, doctor. I believe the problem is that countries which have the metric system are inherently resistant to the term "feet", lest the populace revolt. As AFA so effectively posted, there is a small underground movement by local grocers to rename the feet as "chicken paws" in order to attract metric-oriented customers. This does give me paws though: can this be the answer to our english/metric mess?

I remember when they once were called the St. Louis Browns, until they were then known as Seattle Pilots following their move into Forbes Field, two seasons before the National League merged with the All-American Conference.

I remember the old AAC, their innovations led to the fences being no more than 3 hogsheads high (they used the heads rather than the feet as an homage to Lord of the Flies author William Golding, a season-ticket holder)

I believe they have several players inducted in the Hall of Fame.....I don't recall the names of those inductees

To the best of my recollection, the inductees were: Mark "The Bird" Fidrych, Chick Hafey and Lenny "Chicken Paw" McGraw(no info available)

I am not entirely confident that this could bring a non-violent, amicable conclusion to the perennial English/metric controversy, and even if it were to, unquestionably there would be considerable expense involved in making the transition, invariably leaving it to the taxpayers, as usual, to foot the bill.

It is always spiritually refreshing witness the all-to-rare occasion of a pig using his head.

Hmm, I seem to recall another kind of bird. Much different kind of "induction," for him.

You ask the questions, I'll provide the answers (a little late, of course ... and AFTER it's already been posted, too):

Honey Formation

Honey is laid down by bees as a food source. In cold weather or when food sources are scarce, bees use their stored honey as their source of energy. By contriving for the bee swarm to make its home in a hive, people have been able to semi-domesticate the insects. In the hive there are three types of bee: the single queen bee, a seasonally variable number of drone bees to fertilize new queens and some 20,000 to 40,000 worker bees. The worker bees raise larvae and collect the nectar that will become honey in the hive. They go out, collect the sugar-rich flower nectar and return to the hive. As they leave the flower, bees release Nasonov pheromones. These enable other bees to find their way to the site by smell. Honeybees also release Nasonov pheromones at the entrance to the hive, which enables returning bees to return to the proper hive. In the hive the bees use their "honey stomachs" to ingest and regurgitate the nectar a number of times until it is partially digested. It is then stored in the honeycomb. Nectar is high in both water content and natural yeasts which, unchecked, would cause the sugars in the nectar to ferment. After the final regurgitation, the honeycomb is left unsealed. Bees inside the hive fan their wings, creating a strong draft across the honeycomb which enhances evaporation of much of the water from the nectar. The reduction in water content, which raises the sugar concentration, prevents fermentation. Ripe honey, as removed from the hive by the beekeeper, has a long shelf life and will not ferment.

BEE PUKE. :yummie: :helpme:
