A man opens a bag of body parts and is surprised to find... a body part. Duh!

Wing or head, it's still part of a dead chicken. What's the difference?

I guess the point is that they bought a bag of chicken wings

This reminds me of the McCrap nugget that turned out to be a chicken's head

So they get a free bonus snack- nothing to be upset about!

I suppose it happens once in a while.

As someone who eats mock meats because I used to enjoy meat (except for cured meats, which taste nasty), I can appreciate the attraction of tasty, attractively formed food items. But when I did eat meat, I saw plenty of heads and bones, etc. I just wonder at what criteria people use to determine which body parts are OK to eat and which aren't. When I ate meat it was all the same to me.

McD's nuggets are a fine example. The sort of person who'll eat a box of deep-fried gristle pellets would be the same to feel "outraged" at finding a head in it.

I think the news part was that store chiefs gave him 50 quids worth of beer and wine as compensation....

hey !!....you don't think this was some kind of a ploy by ASDA to sell yet more bags of bird bits to gullible consumers do you ??

*vision of dads buying all the bags in the hope of getting something disgusting in order to extract compensation alcohol*

alec.

Oh, yeah, the beer and wine buyoff cracked me up. Especially as it was for a nine-year-old's birthday party.
