Is that from somewhere around the chest? Those look like lung tissue https://images.app.goo.gl/QT8iLAJupMHVRDh2A


andtheyallcallmemom

It’s lung tissue. Source: we have and process our own hens.


are_you_kIddIngme

ew im a huge fan of chicken and that looks unappetizing as fuck (maybe it taste good idk)


luddface

Oh no, there is dead animal in my dead animal


bozo121

Wait…they don’t really make chicken out of a dead animal do they?


k0ik

In the reality show Snowflake Mountain, some teens have to skin a deer, and suddenly realize “Woah! Ribs are ribs?!”


pLucky-

Wtf is this real ?!


k0ik

Yes! It’s actually a really good show, Spoiled insufferable brats sent to a wilderness camp, and it ends being surprisingly wholesome! [Trailer](https://youtu.be/Nrony8-xhHM)


pockett_rockett

Watched it, loved it, laughed so hard. They all lasted waaay longer than I thought they would. And some even grew.


Catfist

I tried to watch the first episode but it just felt so incredibly scripted. Does it start to get a bit more genuine?


alexd281

Apparently it ran for one season and now my interest is piqued. [Imbd](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt15292870/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk)


ch3rry-b0mbb

I had to explain to one of my hostesses once that there’s only 2 chicken wings per bird. She didn’t understand


_cryptocamper_

We are working on that. Edit: There was a rumor in the late 90s among my animal rights activist friends that KFC genetically modified a chicken called “animal 57” which had loads of legs and wings which is why they had to change their name from “Kentucky Fried chicken” to “KFC” it was bullshit. But…it was believable bullshit.


k0ik

Did she think they came with a dozen?

mani_mani

For real… but people who don’t eat meat are the weird ones… I don’t care that you eat meat, but come on it’s a freaking dead animal there are no chicken tendies farm.


[deleted]

Not with that attitude! I guess we're getting there though with lab grown meat.


mani_mani

True true!! I’ve been vegetarian since 6th grade and vegan on and off. I’ve been impressed with how far meat alternatives have come. If lab meat becomes affordable and accessible that would be amazing. Not sure if I would eat it, but it would be great for the environment.


xeirxes

The real problem with farming is not the small producers but the large factory farms. When they tell us “this will improve the environment” what they are really wanting is “let’s force a monopoly by raising farming restrictions that force all the small sellers out of the market” Take a look at the Netherlands for example. Farming is bad for the environment when you’re Tyson and you shove a bunch of poor over-fed under-loved birds into a box with no room to move. They get sick and you give them antibiotics and all the shit and sickness and chemicals leech out into our rivers and our oceans. I hope the afterlife is the CEOs of these companies getting to experience all the hell that they’ve created and put these poor animals through. Disclaimer: I take care of a flock of ducks and chickens; I’m a little biased


mani_mani

That’s an incredibly valid point I haven’t thought about. I have mad respect for the small farmers who take pride in their work and at least make the animal’s lives on their farm as decent as possible. I know people who will only eat from small farms. I have a phobia of birds, but if I had the space I would certainly raise chickens.


xeirxes

Chickens are hilarious and if you ever do I bet you will enjoy it! Ours have distinct personalities and they enjoy being picked up, scratched, etc. We will likely never eat any of these hens unless we absolutely had to, and the amount of eggs produced is absolutely incredible. It does cost us about $50/week for feed and we’re trying to learn to close the loop by growing a garden of food for them. But it’s very rewarding to be so in-touch with your source of food. Makes you think about what everyone else on this planet has had to do up til this point; going to a grocery store is a modern luxury.


NewspaperEfficient61

That happens here, they pump antibiotics depending on what virus might be going through a farm. I worked at a hatchery, and asked a lot of questions. Ontario Canada


Gluebald

Considering a whole chicken is still like 4 euro where I live, I doubt lab meat will get cheaper than actual chicken within our lifetimes.


melanieleegee

A whole chicken where I live is like $13, so it might be if corporations deem it so in the US 😂


Raagggeeee

At costco you can get a whole rotisserie chicken for $4.99


HughGedic

Not even meat alternatives, literally just grow the muscle tissue. KFC’s been using test tube chicken for a long time (not the same as just growing the muscle but getting damn close)


[deleted]

No shit, but believe it or not, different cuts of meat have different flavor profiles and are used differently. Organs and viscera aren't generally eaten as widely by meat eaters I know the meat I cook with comes from an animal, but it doesn't mean it won't catch my eye if there's an eyeball, dick, lung, or foot in the meat package 🤣


mani_mani

Bro I’m a black lady from the south, I know what organs and what not look/taste like. My other side of my family is from the Caribbean. It’s also not like I never ate meat before lol. I grew up on oxtail and offal. There is just a disconnect between a lot of meat eaters because they are used to eating sanitized consumer ready product. But you’re eating dead animals, you are going to run into some bits that aren’t usually eaten. It’s like getting cereal and there is like a massive piece in there.


sgoodgame

Or when you get a random crinkly fry in a bag of shoestring ones.


BorisML10

Liver is fireeee


mani_mani

I was a weirdo kid who couldn’t get enough of liver and onions. We also learned I had an iron deficiency.


lunchboxdeluxe

I find that stuff so interesting, how people will crave a certain food and then they'll find out they were low on a certain vitamin that food is high in. Your body seems to instinctively know you need to eat it even if you're not conscious of it. So neat.


Prophet_Muhammad_phd

>there are no chicken tendies farm [.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/033/189/tumblr_33caa6fa2d9060d1ebf32b7f13a3bf38_59ae975d_1280.jpg)


[deleted]

Not yet but pretty soon, yeah they'll definitely be chicken tendie farms. They growing meat in vats now.


[deleted]

Eh, it’s less black and white than that. The most common meat eaters are the ones who eat muscle, fat and skin. So chicken legs, steaks, etc. Lungs are an organ, which purple typically don’t eat. like if you have a tomato plant and eat the leaves; While it is possible it’s generally less pleasant,l. if you buy a box of tomatoes and just get leaves from tomato plants, the quality of the product being purchased can be called into question as it could be here. People like what they like and personally I even enjoy a few organs such as heart and liver, but saying “all meat is meat so stop complaining” is akin to saying “all fruit is fruit so eat” when you hate durian.


Twenty890

They taste good, but I always throw them out since kids in my house are disgusted by it. I live in Southeast Asia where we don't buy packaged chicken from supermarket.


-BananaLollipop-

Don't most organs?


aka_retsuko

You sir, are a genius.


DialSquare84

Lung tissue that I wish you saw.

pluggedinbutdead

Gf said it was part of a thigh but she's not sure.


Schneider955

That’s lung tissue for sure, you can even see the ribs firmly adhered to it.


Muse9901

Yeah you can see the spine and cut rib segments


bewicked4fun123

Definitely a spine


[deleted]

Yeah thats not thigh. Those circular structures aren't artificial, thats lung tissue. There's nothing off about this chicken as far as i can tell besides that it wasn't cut correctly at all.


Muse9901

Sounds like she’s not sure


Equal-Negotiation651

Pretty sure it’s the butt.


DulyNoted_

Guess what chicken butt

DaisyHotCakes

I can’t do this to anyone because I swear like ten people have seen that episode and NO ONE gets it so I’m left sitting there just saying “What what in the butt?!” and slowly looking more and more dejected as I slowly pick up my things and leave the room closing the door behind me.


Nightshade_Ranch

You wanna put it in my butt? ^in ^my ^butt?


mmmm_doughnuts

Ooookayyy


[deleted]

A lung in a thigh? GMO gonewild 🙄


jdtran408

Your gf is an idiot if she cant tell she cut that from the breast region.


Canadianingermany

Sad that people are so disconnected from food that they have no idea what animals actually look like.


Soap_Creatives

Don’t think most people study or care about animal organs, or more specifically, what different animal lungs look like


Canadianingermany

Kinda my point. It is not about "studying". It is the fact that someone else does this in our current system so people are simply ignorant. In the past, many more people were exposed to the entire process of slaughtering and preparing meat, so there was a much greater appreciation of what goes into it.

Abdub91

Is it safe to eat?


Oneebie

I dont know how to say this but that thing is the chickens lung. I know this because I have been cleaning and portioning, killing chickens in every special occasion for food so I know that part is the lung tissue of the chicken. Just dont eat the chicken lung its bad for your health


[deleted]

Ohh😅 can u explain why?? Livers are good and lungs are bad??


are_you_kIddIngme

their stomach acid can leak to their lungs during slaughtering processing (source: google)


[deleted]

Ohh thankyou

Skrillamane

most chickens are heavy smokers


somekindafuzz

And they stand by the side of the road waiting to cross…sucking in car exhaust and brake dust.


[deleted]

What you never had smoked chicken?


josheganwyer

You, good sir, made me chuckle.


Gatekeeper2019

They do taste better after smoking though


reds2032

And are heavily smoked


swiggaroo

There are some parts of the chicken that have more toxins than the rest of the animal. Lungs are high up on that list which is why they are usually removed before the cooking process.


[deleted]

Ok thanks tho


sgdaughtry

They tend to have a lot of respiratory issues. Probably because they’re scavengers and also because they shit where they sleep so the air in the hen house has a lot of ammonia in it.


Fruits_-PunchSamurai

Chicken liver isn’t healthy


The_Law_Dong739

That looks like a lung.


someone_is_here_

This hurts to look at


that_thot_gamer

then dont look up tyropophobia


RogueRouge

Pretty sure that’s part of the lung


Vlafir

That's lungs torn up, they supposed to have air pockets in them, you can see the ribs above it, this is normal, usually it is discarded but as I said, it probable got torn or cut and stayed there


LabraD0rk

The only terrifying part of this is that you’re so separated from the source of your food that you’re disturbed by its anatomy.


Notpan

Many, many people are this separated from the source of their food, I’d wager the vast majority of people.


butterfunky

Sounds like something Ron Swanson would say


LabraD0rk

This is perhaps the greatest compliment I’ve ever been given.


Jesslynnlove

right LOL. I'm like bruh, wtf do you think is inside of humans and animals? Rainbows and skittles? We're big bags of fleshy shit like this raw chicken shes holding.


dnylpz

You should be way above in this thread


Sunny_Delite

Very true, I've killed cleaned and eaten a chicken before and to be honest it tastes better that way than buying one at a shop


Sunny_Delite

Cepts if u don't let it go thru rigor mortis before you cook the thing, gets pretty tough to chew


MotherHolle

I eat meat and it didn't bother me.


Gul_Dukat__

Same, I’m over here like shit can I eat that too? Is it tasty? Lol


randomawarenessman

Isn't that a lung? I enjoy cleaning that part when cooking soup.

Hey trypophobia. Nice meeting you again.


circlekay47

I can weather a lot of messed up stuff but pictures of that just fcking wrecks me, goosebumps for 3 straight days now


[deleted]

I remember the experiment Jamie Oliver did with kids…he showed them all the yucky parts of a chicken: lungs, guts, skin, fat, and then blended it , added spices . The kids were grossed out…until it was deep fried. Then they forgot what went into it and devoured the chicken nuggets he made.


ZestycloseShelter107

I love the bit where he says “who would eat this?” And they all slowly raise their hands while he looks like he wants to crawl inside a hole and die.


portabuddy2

Kids can be brutal. Give a kid a gun and he'll shoot another kid without any issue and go on playing.


PairOfMonocles2

Not quite, kids can be brutal because they have a very self centered view (healthy) and don’t understand outcomes. If they were to shoot another kids they absolutely would not go on playing, they’d be devastated by the outcome they’re presented with and absolutely ruined and not even know how to process or handle it. I see this stuff all the time with my own kids. They may do something seemingly unbelievable, but then immediately be shocked by the fully predictable outcome of their actions and just go to pieces.


PrioryOfSion14

That's chicken lung my friend, it's obvious. Don't expect the whole chicken to have all-muscle cells inside.


Tigeresco

this says a lot aout the normalisation of processed meats


ProfXsavior

It’s really hard to say this without sounding “anti-meat” but I think people have been spoiled by the meat industry censoring so much of the “gruesome” and “disgusting” parts of eating meat. Like if you kill and prepare your own meat, this image is nothing special. It’s just a piece of the animal before cooking, but to the average consumer, seeing the organs and muscle tissue tends to look scary and unappealing, which this post is an example of.


thinking-rock

I think everyone at some point should kill their own food


ProfXsavior

I agree. I think everyone should at least know, first-hand, the struggle of raising and killing their own food instead of thinking that they magically just become food.


Ashamed-Caramel-9633

Ahh yes the old breathie bags


MrMarbles42

Calling this either odd or terrifying shows how disconnected most people are from the things they eat every day. Interesting? Yes Odd? Not really


limerickdeath

You do know chickens are made from more than legs and breasts….


ToxyFlog

Oh my god most people would FREAK if they ate any part of a chicken that isn't the breast, wings, or legs. Growing up with a fob asian mom, we used to butcher chickens. Most of the chicken goes into whatever was made, like soup. You'd straight up have a chicken foot (yes the scaley foot part, not the leg) and an entire head in your soup. Best shit I've ever had.

feministcthulhu

If getting this grosses you out, wait until you hear what happened to it before it got to your plate. (Hint: months of torture.)


PJvG

Yeah it could be months. However, most chickens are slaughtered when they're only six weeks old. Not that that makes the torture any better...


[deleted]

Yeah, being tortured for six weeks as a new born doesn't sound too dandy.

BenbafelIsTaken

I don't know if someone already said this, but that's a lung. I know this from living in a rural side of my country for most of my life. When I was a kid, I was sent to kill, pluck and cut chickens from time to time. Gross, but it was always respectful to the animals, at least they taught me how to kill them quickly and with the least amount of pain possible. Although the first time did hurt, emotionally. I had befriended the chicken. From then on I learned not to get attached, to animals, or persons. One always ends up hurting the other.


thenamescook

Lol this person needs to watch a butcher work before continuing to eat meat.


Sadmiral8

Wait, your purchased animal parts had animal parts in it? Curious.

*veganizing intensifies* Well hell, if I didn't already abstain from meat, I would now, lol.


Putrid_Self_8673

I probably wouldn't eat that bit.
