What are fried chicken gizzards made out of?

Question

My husband and I have a bet going on about what fried chicken gizzards really are. He says one thing, I say another. I just need validation to know that I am right. I think it's the part of the stomach that grinds food up when the bird eats it. He says it's the private parts...I know he is wrong.

Answer 1

You win. Hands down. A gizzard is a specialized stomach with a thick, muscular wall used for grinding up food. It is found in birds, reptiles, earthworms, some fish, insects, mollusks, and other creatures.
