Police feat saves chicken feet from feasts

(Bangkok Post) - Thai police seized 20 tonnes of chicken feet that had been smuggled in to the country from neighbouring Malaysia, news reports said Saturday.

Police intercepted the contraband delicacies Friday at a checkpoint in the southern province of Pahtthalung. The fowl feet had been packed in plastic bags and stored in a freezer on a 10-wheel truck.

Nikom Chumthong, the driver, was arrested and charged with illegally smuggling prohibited products.

Chicken feet are a popular culinary treat at Chinese restaurants.
