Chicken is chicken

I was making chicken noodle soup last week and as I was stripping chicken off the carcass Esther was, of course, hounding me with questions.  This very serious topic came up:  "So is that chicken really from a chicken?"  I said yes and showed her some of the bones.  She repsonded, "That. is. disgusting."  But she kept eating the chicken so I guess she wasn't TOO grossed out.  Then there were another twenty other questions about the chicken and its bones--which bones were what, where the stomach was, was this how the chicken leg walked, etc...  I found I was quite deficient on my chicken anatomy... but the soup was amazing!
