They should have used someone else's name besides Jackie Chan. Anyone else.

They shouldn't have teased me at all! I didn't know what "Jackie Chan" was until the last year of my school!

That's not a nice thing to do to your sisters, lol.

Did I mention I have a little flock of chickens? Over the years I have hatched eggs in incubators, fed them, given them medication, even done minor medical procedures, let them live until old age....

I have a vivid imagination, I think if I ate a brain I'd think of all the memories in it, or all of the sights the eyeball has seen, or all of the feelings that little heart has felt, or all the places those feet walked over. I don't think any amount of persuasion will work on me akhi.

But tell us how a heart and eyeball tastes, we'll wait for your reviews inshaAllah.

Some people believe that if you eat eyes, your eyesight will improve. Likewise if you eat brains, your brains will improve. And stomach, from eating tripe. They believe you absorb the powers from the animal you've eaten.

@Huzaifah ibn Adam
Does your family have the same interest as yourself in eating such foods?

No. I've worked in the fields of slaughtering, skinning animals, selling meat products, etc., so maybe that's why.

Eating trotters could help with bones, ...not sure about the other stuff..

Honestly, I don't know what kids take joy our of spiting others, it's usually out of jealousy.

I find especially with the 'fancy' Arabic names we have, we get teased a lot at school for them. Too many times I was humiliated when the teacher forgot how to pronounce my name.

Generally, the kind of people who've worked in a butchery will eat any kind of meat.

That's a good idea.

I usually clean the trotters and tripe myself, because it's difficult to find someone who'll do it.

I can't think if I'd want the kind of powers a cow or chicken has.

Maybe a lizard.....

I actually like both.

Cleaning is a task, though.

It has to be chicken. Your chickens will be thankful for that;D

I've been trying to think of what chicken powers I'd want.

I mean my chickens are such a heavy breed they can't even fly.

They have a third eyelid, but what would I do with that? Except creep people out, lol.

Small things amuse small minds. Insha Allah I will instil in my children that they should never hurt others by teasing them about that which they have no control over or about anything for that matter. [emoji4]

Never knew we can eat dhab..I mean not like I want to. I only have fish, chicken and lamb meat loll the rest just "looks haram" :embarrass

Thinking about these types of "unusual" foods- We don't eat it because we have a choice. If people in severe poverty were given an animal they would savour every single part of it.

That's very true.

They were jealous of you, that's why they said those things.
