Hi, First of all, I stumbled across your site after seeing an episode of Iron Chef America where they were preparing offal cuisine and offered duck testicles as one of the secret ingredients. Since I am a big fan of eating “bizzare foods”, I immediately went on line looking for the duck testicles. Your site referenced D’Artagnan as one of the places to find them but they were not offered. Is there another source from which I can purchase them? Secondly, I am not usually a blog reader but I have really enjoyed reading yours. Thanks for the very interesting tidbits that you have offered.

I’ve seen whole plucked dead chickents at New May Wah with feet and heads; I didn’t turn them over to see if they still had internal organs. These whole chickens were a few specific breeds that must be prized in Chinese cooking, and were more expensive than their other generic chicken offerings without heads and feet.

I’ve also seen a black/blue chicken (I think it had a head on it) at a smaller Chinese supermarket out on Noriega Street on the corner of perhaps 34th or 35th, across from HC Seafood/Dim Sum. This wasn’t like a Bresse chicken with blue feet, the whole body was blue and it was on the small size as chickens go.
