Chicken envelopes – a novel idea (retro, again)

What’s the Idea?
Chicken envelopes, we’ll beat the post office at their own game!
What is it?
Despite the dodgy-sounding name it is merely stationary, first envelopes and perhaps moving onto paper and greeting cards, that is made from chickens. Mainly the meat however there is the possibility of using the other less edible parts I suppose.
What does it do?
When you get a lovely breast of roast chicken and you first peel the skin back it looks like a blank canvas, like there should be something perhaps written there and there isn’t. We’re all being constantly disappointed. I say take that breast, carve it into an envelope shape and send something through the post be it romantic letter or birthday present it doesn’t matter. Plus when it arrives at the receipants address it’ll smell and probably taste of chicken; that’s never a bad thing in my eyes.
So what are you gonna do about it?
Nothing (!) Mr. Cockall, it’s all in my head >:)

Lovely to see Mr Cockall back to showcase the inventions of tomorrow. More of these, please, Mr. C.
I once mentioned to Friya that I had used chicken stock in something that had pork in it, and she said that was OK because chicken stock works with anything. Her precise comment was that it “tastes of flavour”. This is probably the most profound thing I’ve ever heard, and it’s right too.

I like flavour, its probably one of my favourite tastes, along with tang.

I’m rather partial to a bit of tasty, too. Mmmm.

Delicious gets my vote!

Does anyone else here like a dollop of yum on the side of their food?

Yum, well, it does have it’s moment but lip-smackingly good is my preferred choice even if it is a little overrated.

Had a bit of mmm-mm! spread on my toast today. It was really good.

The other day I had a teeny tiny slab of scrumptious dripping over my plate.
