I think chicken hips and chicken tits are heathen terms, but I'm not terribly bothered by them. I've only seen those terms used here. I'd never heard them before.

"sammies" for sandwiches, while the word has been around people like Rachel Ray abused it...

I've heard those used. Also, hips-n-hooves and L25's (both refer to leg quarters) For some reason they don't bother me. Probably because of their infrequent use.

Yeah sous vide twists my balls too! I hate the concept but the name irritates the hell out of me.

I just bought the Hillary Clinton special at Popeyes. Two small breast, two fat thighs and a left wing.

Is it the joke or a lot of Hillary lovers here?

I'm no Trump fan if that helps.

And to contribute "cooked to perfection."

The joke was bad. I'm no Hilary fan but that joke wasn't good at all.

Good initiative, poor judgment on Martini's part.

To flip the script a little, I really like the term good mustard. When I hear it, I think of a mustard bottle that's been in the fridge for a year and has crust all over the top. "You want some of this mustard? No, not that mustard. The good mustard."

Worse than sammies is sammich. Ugh.
Locally sourced grates when it is abundantly clear that the establishment considers the weekly Sysco delivery as a local source.
Delish and amazeballs. Eatery instead of restaurant.
I also abhor coo-chon instead of co-chon de lait. You often find the same person who says coo-chon also says "pee-row" instead of lightly voicing the hard g like most actual French speakers who say the word: pee-rawg.

Not sure why someone would call a grocery store chicken a "yard bird" but I can tell you that a true yard bird, chicken raised in a yard not commercially, is 1,000 times better than those grocery store birds. Same goes for yard eggs.

Can we add hyperbole to the discussion?
