Feet First: 1924
December 24, 1924. Washington, D.C. "Xmas bags distributed by Salvation Army." An addition to the tableau glimpsed here last week. Protruding from the top of each goody bag: A festive spray of chicken feet. View full size.
Let them eat soup
People used to prize chicken feet because they made excellent stock for soup, so I would bet the whole bird was eagerly and gratefully accepted.
Delivering
I used to deliver Salvation Army bags to senior citizens. The year they had raw chickens in the bags was terrible. I like to never got the smell out of the car. I can imagine the smell of that room.
Chicken Feet In Every Pot
Eight bells a ringin', seven drums a thumpin' six tubas oompin', five tambourines, four Santa suits, three red kettles, two thrift stores and a big ol' bag o' Yuletide Chicken Feet
