Chicken Coxcomb - An example of the strange or weird food eaten by people around the world

---

Anatomically, a comb is a fleshy growth, caruncle, or crest on the top of the head of gallinaceous birds, most notably turkeys, pheasants, and domestic chickens. Its alternative name cockscomb (spelling variations abound) is because combs are generally larger on males than on females (a male gallinaceous bird is called a cock). Rooster cockscombs are red, but in other species the color may vary from light grey to deep blue or red;[1] turkey cockscombs can vary in colour from bright red to blue.
