That does not look appetising.
Sorry time:
When I was a kid I went to a yum-cha restaurant with my dad and grandparents. I had some chicken feet, and they were delicious! My sweet grandma noticed this. The next time she came over to our house, she brought a pack of Coles chicken feet, uncooked, just in their original plastic packaging. She put them in the microwave and served them to me as is, no seasoning, nothing. It broke my heart a little bit but I couldn't bring myself to eat them.

Oh dear. That would be awful. I'm surprised you didn't end up unable to eat anything microwaved after a trauma like that! Just think, you may never have discovered the joy of microwaved potatoes and the whole world could have ended up a much duller place. All because of one misunderstanding over chicken feet.
