Gizzard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The gizzard is a very muscular stomach that is found in birds, earthworms, and other animals.

Often, animals that lack teeth will swallow stones to aid in digestion. "A bird swallows small bits of gravel that act as 'teeth' in the gizzard, digestively breaking down hard food such as seeds and thus helping digestion." (Solomon et. al, 2002) These stones are called gizzard stones and are usually smooth and round from the polishing action in the animal's stomach.

Dinosaurs are also known to have used gizzard stones. When found in association with fossils, they are called gastroliths.

The gizzards of poultry are a popular food in some places. Grilled chicken gizzards are sold as street food in China, stewed gizzards are eated as a snack in Portugal, while pickled turkey gizzards are a traditional food in some parts of the Midwestern United States. In the Southern United States, the gizzard is typically served fried, sometimes eaten with hot or honey mustard sauce

so that explains why everytime i open and clean chicken gizzard, i always find them stones and sands.

i always thought all those years that they were accidentally or un-avoidably swallowed.

would it be possible that because of their high internal temperature... those stones could turn into DIAMONDS?

You have to beat the chicken with a baseball bat. It takes high temps AND high pressure to make diamonds.

Chicken with teeth.

i don't know, you gotta be a pregnant woman. how do some women come up with pickles and icecream?

You can make up a story. We'd never know.

You could say you were trying to come up with a new recipe for your husband. Like Lisa used to say on Green Acres, "The way to a man's heartburn is through his stomach."

Here's another. You and two of your kids were at the table eating snacks. One kid had melted Peppermint Patties and the other had Nacho Cheese Doritos. They started getting unruly and began yelling at each other so you slapped each on the back of their head at the same time. Their snacks flew out of their hands, into the air and landed on your plate. First the Doritos and then the patties on top. You ate it because you're not wasteful.

Voila. Use either story if you want. No charge.

LOL

or, it was a hot summer day, i was having a picinic on our deck while eating doritos and peppermint patties. i set the pattie on top of the doritos and went to answer the phone. when i came back, the hot sun had melted the pattie all over my doritos. since that was the last of the bag and i really wanted the doritos, i ate them anyways. they tasted good and i eat them that way from now on.

i don't like to lie to people.
